Travis Scott and his Nike, Inc. family have yet to officially unveil the LJR Jordan 4 Retro Kaws Black930155-001 Trainer, but the gamma is already building out a roster of styles for Fall 2024.
A mid-top offering, the unreleased sneaker marks one of the first times Scott has designed his own model for the Oregon-based partner. Although the sneaker bears resemblance to numerous performance shoes from the 1990s, it introduces an all-new language to the artist’s fanbase – in particular when compared to the Air Jordan series. A reverse swoosh makes its way onto the Jumpman Jack Trainer, as it has on other projects between La Flame and Brand Jordan. Furthermore, the pair rooted in old school design cues is set to carry the Cactus Jack brand’s muted color palette over into the new year (as is the case with the recently-rumored “Black Olive” Travis Scott Jordan 1 Low).
According to reliable sneaker-leaking duo Sneaker Files and @zSneakerHeadz, the LJR Jordan 4 Retro Kaws Black930155-001 Trainer is set to launch in a “Taupe Haze” color scheme in 2024. While yet to be confirmed by Scott and company, the rumor would fit in with the rest of Travis Scott’s mid with the Oregon-based conglomerate. Additionally, “Taupe Haze” previously appeared on an Air Jordan 4 that was widely-believed to have been produced by the brand as an opportunity to enjoy momentum caused by a special “Mocha” pair gifted to Friends & Family of the artist in 2018. The rumored makeup of the Jumpman Jack Trainer is expected to arrive with “Thunder Blue” swooshes, a “Sail” midsole, and “Light Gum Brown” outsoles.
