Talk about sneaker collabs and one would definitely not have missed out on Travis Scott. Undeniably one of the most notable artist when it comes to the streetwear scene, the American rapper has engraved his status with the iconic ‘reverse Swoosh’ shown through his Nike collaborations. With all the hype gathered around his releases, some may wonder what are the best-selling models offered by the rapper.
Well, questions are answered as we crunched the numbers to find out the top 5 best-selling Travis Scott x Nike sneakers of 2022 on our SNKRDUNK app. Below are the results in ascending sales order.
5. Travis Scott × Nike Air Force 1 Low (AF100)
First released back at ComplexCon 2017, the Travis Scott x Nike Air Force 1 Low was introduced as part of Nike’s AF100 collection. Offering a more trippy take on the iconic silhouette with reflective linings all around the canvas upper, the rapper also added his ‘Cactus Jack’ identity with graphical velcro patches. Just when you thought you are missing out on the signature reverse Swoosh, a subtle alternative comes in the form of a reverse heel tab logos. While generally a conservative pair in terms of design, it just shows Scott’s approach with not having to be loud to make a statement.
4. Travis Scott × Fragment × Nike Air Jordan 1 Low
A pair that we are all familiar with, featuring a triple collaboration with Hiroshi Fujiwara’s fragment design. Dressed in royal blue, black and white panels on the upper, vintage-esque cream fill the laces, midsole and most importantly, the reverse Swoosh. As a Cactus Jack logo replaces the Air Jordan branding on one side of the heel tab, debossed prints of the Cactus Jack emblem and fragment’s logo completes the look below on each side. With a refined match of color tones and detailing, the versatility of the low-top sneaker proves its popularity with the public, regardless if you are a fan of the rapper.
3. Travis Scott × Fragment × Nike Air Jordan 1 High “Military Blue”
We’ve seen the lows, and we can’t possibly miss out on the highs. Sporting similarities to 2019’s “Mocha” that indefinitely changed the sneaker game, the “Military Blue” has been one of the biggest release of 2021, alongside its low-cut counterpart. Besides the fact that fragment joined the collaborative line between the rapper and sports label, this pair serves as an alternative to those who lost a shot at the “Mocha” on retail.
2. Travis Scott x Nike Air Trainer 1 SP “Archaeo Brown and Rust Pink”
Following the controversy behind his last Astroworld Festival, the rapper planned his return with a lineup of releases, including the ones with the Swoosh brand. A fresh start comes a fresh silhouette and that’s how we saw the Travis Scott x Nike Air Trainer 1 SP. Initially released in two colorways, it’s no wonder why the brown variation tops the grey in terms of sales and popularity.
Constructed with a more utilitarian approach, detachable protective shrouds comes provided for an alternative look when buttoned and to also protect your shoes. With resale value kept low with this pair, it has become the perfect entry level purchase for the collaborative line between the duo.
1. Travis Scott × Nike Air Max 270 “Cactus Trails”
Crowning the list is the duo’s rendition of the lifestyle silhouette Air Max 270. Packaged in almost everything that marks a Travis Scott sneaker—except the reverse Swoosh–shades of light cream, starfish and dark hazel dresses the sneaker with a mixture of textile including suede and mesh. Docked in unique wavy synthetic overlays on the upper, the bottom gets equipped with a pre-aged React midsole that not only looks pleasingly vintage, but also provides superior cushioning and durability. With the amount of hype surrounding this pair, its unimaginable to how it would be if a reverse swoosh rendition hits shelves.
There you have it—the top 5 best selling Travis Scott x Nike sneakers of 2022 on SNKRDUNK. With previous leaks of an unreleased fragment sneaker and his latest “Utopia” album expected to drop early 2023, it’s no doubt that we can expect more to come from the rapper. Speaking of which, don’t miss out on the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Black Phantom” and apparel collection that is set to release tomorrow 15 December via Nike SNKRS and selected retailers.
