Let’s Unbox The New Collab From Travis Scott & Michael Jordan
Travis Scott is rap’s most prolific artist out. From sold out shows, to amazing bodies of work when it comes to producing albums, Travis has built quite the brand for himself. So why wouldn’t the biggest sports brand on the planet, owned by the greatest athlete in our lifetime, bring in La Flame to design his own signature shoe?
Now here we have the “Jumpman Jack” sneaker that was recently released. Travis Scott and Michael Jordan have collaborated to bring us a cool, fresh new look for the Nike Jordan Brand. The past few years Travis Scott & Jordan have teamed up & collaborated on some of Jordan’s classic silhouettes.
Earlier this week, the Travis’ “Jumpman Jack” sneaker was released on the Nike SNKRS app, as well as other select outlets where you buy kicks from. The hype for these shoes has been going on since last year when Travis began wearing these mysterious sneakers at his shows & in public. The “FE!N” rapper dropped the kicks on April 30th & I was lucky enough to grab a few pairs. Two, one for me and one for my daughter, at local Tampa boutique Social Status, and another one on the SNKRS app, which is by far the hardest app to score sneakers on. I finally caught a “W!”
I was excited to have these shoes in hand because, I am big fan of all the Travis Scott releases through Jordan Brand. Especially, the Jordan1 Low silhouette and the backwards Nike check on the side of the shoe. The “Jumpman Jack” keeps that same energy as well as drawing inspiration from the class Nike Yeezy sneaker from before, with the Velcro strap at the bottom of the tongue. The shoes retail for $200 & resell around $450-$650.
I will be wearing these out soon, they’re too dope not to. Peep the unboxing video & comment if you’re feeling this collab from Travis Scott & Jordan.
