It's no secret that Travis Scott is 2021's king of sneakers. After dropping two ultra hyped Air Jordan 1s earlier this month, the acclaimed rapper is now back with not one, not two, but five Air Max 1s - and we're now taking our best look yet at the Travis Scott x Nike Air Max 1 "Wheat" ! While this particular collaboration has been shrouded with controversy, especially due to a particular element of the AM1, there's no doubt that hype levels are on the rise for these!
Painted in a vibrant all-yellow colour palette that kind of reminds us of the " Lemonade ", La Flame's take on the legendary silhouette is as premium as it gets. Working on top of a ballistic mesh base, premium leather panels wrap around the entire shoe for luxury aesthetic that is made to turn heads.
The lateral Nike Swoosh has been inverted just like on the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 High "Dark Mocha" from 2019, and dark teal hues descend upon the thick rope laces and ribbon eyelets - the latter of which extends all the way to the back to act as a pull tab. A newly designed rubber "CJ" emblem can be found on the tongue as a nod to "Cactus Jack", while little flags are stitched at the heel for a Boy Scouts-inspired vibe.
