Travis Scott has ignited a generation of fans that have taken the word “rage” to new heights. La Flame has a certain bond with his followers that is unmatched; from giving away his personal jewelry to setting a world record by performing “goosebumps” 15 times in a row. Constantly shouting out #NikeBoyz all over his social media accounts, it’s only right that the Swoosh welcome Scott to its team of influencers.

As one of the newest faces of Nike’s Air VaporMax model, W Magazine was able to catch up with the Houston native to get a better grasp of what he grabs from his sneaker closet on a specific occasion. On a first date he may rock something red and custom to catch the eye of his lucky lady or he may switch from the Air Max 97 to a pair of Air Force 1s to stay cozy in the studio.

Check out some of Travis’s modeled pics and find out more of Travis’s favorite silhouettes here.

Sneakers for the Day Show:

“I would wear something crazy. Maybe Forces. Something to just pop off.”

Sneakers for Visiting Mom:

“I will put on Flyknits. One-thousand-percent.”

Sneakers for the Private Plane:

“Forces all the way.”

Your First Pair of Sneakers:

“My first pair of sneakers was the Jordan 4s. I got those and Forces.”

Sneakers You Wouldn’t Mind Being Your Last:

“That’s a really hard question. All white Air Forces 1s.”
