Tyler, The Creator took to Twitter to share with his fans that he recently made his very first Air Jordan purchase. Tyler posted a pic of himself posing beside a display of Flower Boy vinyls in his new pair of Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard.” Although Tyler is known for sporting Vans and Converse footwear models due to his partnerships and personal affinity, it seems that the artist’s sneaker taste is evolving. With all the interesting colorways Jordan Brand has been releasing, we could be seeing the ”Who Dat Boy” artist sporting more AJs in the future.

Check out Tyler, The Creator showing off his pair of Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” above and let us know what you think about his new look. Also, Tyler, The Creator’s Golf Wang label recently released a holiday collection just in time for Christmas.
