Jason Williams’ signature style is making another statement this holiday season.
Nike and SLAM are expanding their celebration of the iconic Zoom Hyperflight with a new “Platinum” colorway inspired by one of the silhouette’s most recognizable athletes. Williams recently debuted the pair during the SLAM Summer Classic Vol. 8 in New York, giving fans an early look at what is shaping up to be one of Holiday 2026’s standout basketball-inspired releases.
The collaboration features a Metallic Silver upper contrasted by black accents on the tongue, laces, and signature support wings. Field Purple detailing nods to Williams’ Sacramento Kings tenure, while an icy translucent outsole completes the premium look. Personal touches include “JWILL” branding running vertically down the heel and SLAM branding on the tongue, reinforcing the partnership between the legendary basketball publication and the former NBA star.
The “Platinum” nickname also carries historical significance. Jason Williams and Chris Webber famously appeared together on SLAM Magazine’s March 2000 “Double Platinum” cover, a memorable moment from the Kings’ rise in popularity. While Nike has not officially confirmed the cover as the inspiration behind the sneaker, the connection is difficult to ignore.
