Let’s go back to the 90s.
Back when FILA was a major player in the basketball space and Grant Hill was at the forefront of its marketing efforts, SLAM featured bold, wild and hella fun ads throughout the magazine.For the past 30 years, we’ve had everything from Jordan from perfume ads to brands that sold products that purportedly helped increase your vertical flight or even helped you climb.
In honor of all those timeless classics, we are pleased to announce SLAM features an OLD SLAM AD.
In this exclusive special collector’s edition, you’ll get a peek behind the curtain and hear from members of the Brand Partnerships team who have been tasked with selling ad space at SLAM for years as they offer behind-the-scenes gems on how many of these ads made it to publication on the pages.
You’ll also find a few other features that delve into the aforementioned jump higher/stronger category ad phenomenon that has been running on SLAM for decades, as well as a look back at the legendary D-Band’s headwear output in the early 2000s and more.
