# Rapper-Designed Autumnal Sneakers The Highly Anticipated Travis Scott X Nike Air Max 1 Has Arrived By Niko Pajkovic | Published 2021-11-02 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travis-scott-x-nike-air-max-1 References: [modern-notoriety](https://www.modern-notoriety.com/travis-scott-nike-air-max-1-baroque-brown-saturn-gold-do9392-release-date/) & [nike](http://nike.com) First teased in March 2021, the Travis Scott x Air Max 1 collab has finally arrived in three autumn-ready colorways: Baroque Brown, Saturn Gold, and Wheat. Inspired by the [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-brown) ACG Pocket Knife, the new sneakers have a distinctly tactile feel. Most notably, they are equipped with a drawstring lacing system, custom nubuck, and mesh overlays. However, they delicately blend these hiking-inspired elements with the retro, streetwear appeal of the classic Air Max 1 model, making for a truly one-of-a-kind silhouette. So far, the Baroque Brown and Saturn Gold colorways are set for a regular release on December 16th, where they will be made available on the [SNKRS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivid-purple-colorway) website. That being said, there will be an exclusive release during this year's Astroworld Festival, with a limited quantity of pairs being sold at Space Village in Houston, Texas.
