AIR JORDAN x TRAVIS SCOTT

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan collabs has had an astronomical influence in the sneaker world. The famous rapper, singer and songwriter has created the oversized and backwards swoosh that features on all Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 models and is now a signature symbol of Travis Scott Jordans. There has been several releases of limited edition sneakers including the Jordan 1, Jordan 4 and Jordan 6, to bring more hype in to the sneaker market and quickly became grails for all of us.

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan brand was brought to life through the Travis Scott Jordan 4 ‘Cactus Jack’. This shoe holds great significance as it was released to commemorate the Cactus Jack Festival in Houston. The sneaker features a mix of materials such as suede, leather, and mesh. The predominantly suede upper is a distinctive blue colour, drawing inspiration from the Jordan 4 Eminem ‘Encore’. The homage to the Eminem ‘Encore’ is respective to the success experienced by both rappers, thus holds such significance. There are also specific design elements on the shoe that is unique to the Jordan 4 Cactus Jack. The back heel tab on the left shoe holds the iconic Cactus Jack logo which trademarks the Jordan 4. There is also a hidden stash pocket behind the tongue, fitting the rapper stereotypes.

Of course we can’t forget the most notable Travis Scott Air Jordan 1, Mocha. This sneaker created in both the highly coveted sneaker features a mix of materials, such as tumbled leather, suede and nubuck. The sneaker showcases a neutral palette combining brown, white and black, creating a statement shoe without screaming colours. As usual with Scott’s collaborations with Jordan shoes, there are specific design modifications that are true to the Cactus Jack brand, including the backwards Swoosh, hidden stash pocket, and The Cactus Jack branding on the shoes. The Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Mocha paved the way for the brown colour that we now associated with Travis Scott and released another brown version, the Travis Scott Joran 1 Reverse Mocha, which features a faded brown colour on the opposite panels that they were originally, on the ‘Mocha’ pair. The underrated colour was popularised by the rapper through these sneakers and is now a cult favourite, seen on stage and in the street. Regardless of if you’re a fan of Travis or not, this shoe is undeniably a grail for many.

Another take of the Travis Scott Jordan 1 is seen with the Fragment collaboration. The only Travis Scott Jordan 1 that is all leather. This shoe features black, blue and white as the main colours with cream accents that tie the shoe together. The Travis Scott collection continues with the new releases such as ‘Phantom Black’ and the women’s exclusive ‘Olive’, further creating hype and appreciation for this sneaker silhouette.
