Although the status of Travis Scott’s relationship with NIKE, Inc. was not disclosed in the wake of the 2021 Astroworld festival tragedy, the Texas native’s influence on the company’s footwear products has virtually faded away. Recently, a Nike Air Force 1 Low appeared with a shroud covering the laces, a design detail widely associated with Scott.

Although the color palettes differ between the upcoming version of Bruce Kilgore’s design and the aforementioned musician’s collaboration from November 16, 2019, the materials cross between the two styles. Gray suede makes up the entire upper of the latest Air Force 1, though the toe box and midfoot introduce a warmer, more weather-resistant woven fabric into the mix. The interior lining indulges in an eye-catching light blue which also animates the zipper of the lace fairing nearby. Underfoot, Kilgore’s signature sole unit proposition is reworked into the fan-favorite “White” midsole, “Light Gum Brown” outsole combination that also bears similarities to the Air Force 1 Low collaboration from Travis Scott of 2019.

No firm Nike.com release date has been disclosed by the brand, but that is expected to change as summer approaches. In the meantime, enjoy official images of the pair ahead.

Elsewhere under the Swoosh umbrella, the Air Max 97 celebrates its 25th anniversary throughout 2022.
