It will be Scott’s first major American festival appearance since November’s Astroworld festival in Houston, where 10 people were killed during his Friday night set.

SNKRS and Travis Scott Nikes Meant All The L’s
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: SNKRS / NIke Today (May 27) was a bad day for a whole lot of sneaker aficionados. Two versions and two colorways of the latest Travis Scott and Nike collab was available on the SNKRS app, but thanks to limited quantities, way more people caught L’s than got blessed with a “Got ‘Em” notification. The SNKRS swings it pendulum towards more disappointment than elation on any given sneakers release, but even more so for shoes as hyped as Travis Scott’s. The drop featured versions of the classic Air Max 1 and the Air Trainer 1 except retrofitted in CACT.US CORP aesthetics that implement zippers for stowaway pockets, reverse Swooshers and other flourishes. And at $150 and $140, respectively, the retail price is right. However, most people can’t get them at...

This by itself should see millions of dollars pour into Project Heal with this latest drop alone. Related Stories Sources close to Travis te...
