First Look At The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 8 "Playoffs" Sample “Black/Phantom”

Back in July, it was leaked that Travis Scott Air Jordan 8 "Playoffs" Sample Air Jordan 8 "Playoffs" Sample, one clad in both “Black” as well as “Phantom.” And after much anticipation — and numerous mock-ups — actual images of the collaborative offering have finally surfaced, revealing what is, in effect, a “Triple Black” colorway.

Fans of La Flame and his collaborative footwear are in for a slight surprise, as the artist is moving away from the color blocking we’re most accustomed to. And whereas prior renditions of the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 8 "Playoffs" Sample (not counting its team-up with fragment) leaned heavily on “Mocha” tones, this pair opts for a palette comprised almost entirely out of black. The neutral is used comprehensively throughout the construction, dressing an upper built mainly with nubuck paneling; the stitching, Cactus Jack logos, and Wings embroidery are then highlighted in the much brighter “Phantom.”

For a quick but close-up look at the latest Travis Scott collab, see below. These are currently slated to release on December 15th via Nike SNKRS and the Air Jordan 1 542.
