Sorting your football footwear away from the pitch for the year in one nostalgic power punch, Slam Jam have revealed their latest F50 collaboration with adidas – a four-piece pack that is pretty close to perfect.
Slam Jam have long proven they know how to move within modern football culture. Following on from collaborations with the likes of Umbro and Nike, they once again link up with adidas, diving headfirst into the archives as the Three Stripes continue the revival of one of their most iconic speed boots of the 2000s: the F50. The result is the Slam Jam x adidas F50 collection — a sharp blend of football heritage and street-savvy execution, reworking the original blueprint for life well beyond the pitch.
To mark the drop, adidas and Slam Jam even pushed things further, unveiling a limited-edition on-pitch F50 pair reserved strictly for friends and family — a move that mirrors recent moments like the F50 Spider Kith Edition and reinforces the cultural weight behind this revival.
At the heart of the pack sit two versions of the adidas x Slam Jam F50 Tunit Mega Consortium Sneakers. Instantly recognisable, the Tunit silhouette returns with updated Megaride tooling, transforming a once-pure performance boot into a statement street sneaker.
Both colourways — Core Black / Silver Metallic / Core Black and Cloud White / Core Black / Silver Metallic — arrive drenched in a glossy carbon fibre graphic, nodding to the original speed aesthetic that defined the F50 era. Light grey Three Stripes and +F50 branding keep things clean, while a Slam Jam logo stamped on the lateral heel quietly signs off the collaboration. It’s football nostalgia, but refined — polished just enough to feel right in today’s landscape.
Accompanying the Tunits are two takes on the adidas x Slam Jam F50 Sala SP Consortium Sneakers, offering a lower-profile, indoor-inspired alternative built with lifestyle wear firmly in mind.
The Silver / Clear Granite / Cream White colourway reimagines the legendary F50 Spider boot, featuring a bold gold shield across the lace panel and a metallic structural weave layered over grey mesh side panels. It’s unapologetically expressive, leaning into the design language that made the F50 an icon in the first place.
Meanwhile, the Powder Yellow / St Fade Ocean / Dark Cargo iteration goes wild with texture. A snakeskin-stamped upper blends beige, tan, and brown tones, contrasted by yellow lines racing across the medial side and toe box. Finished with gum and translucent outsole elements, it’s a shoe built to move effortlessly from pitch-side to party.
By balancing archive accuracy with streetwear-informed materials and palettes, Slam Jam allow the F50’s original spirit to shine while elevating it for a new generation. Football culture, fashion culture — no lines, no limits.
