Travis Scott x Jordan 1 Low 'Medium Olive'

First off, thank you @excusemejayburnz for the assist on these. I genuinely can't thank you enough for what you do in this space.

These leaked last year, as well as a similar cw to the OG (scrapped) & I was looking forward to having another shot at a colorway similar to the reverse mochas. Based on the votes of the poll, I'm gonna do a brief comparison to the reverse mochas.

Materials: the primary materials used on this pair is a premium olive-ish nubuck (almost has a brown hue to it as well). Followed by a premium, black leather swoosh, & lastly, on the panels of the upper, they used a white leather that feels okay in hand. If you were to hold the mocha & these in hand, the quality would be very similar to each other, except the white leather used on the mochas has a softer & more premium feeling to it. Other than that one difference, these 2 pairs are essentially the same quality wise.

Comfort/Sizing: imo, these fit & feel like my normal aj1 lows, which is a flat to the ground feel in terms of support, & tts for sizing.

Closing Thoughts: I'm honestly really glad they brought a similar colorway to the reverse mochas that was a lot more readily available to the public. I saw a lot of my friends take W's on this release & that's always really cool to see. With it being almost identical to the mochas & more than half the price, I feel like picking up this colorway is a no brainer. I doubt it will stay like that for long, so if you are on the fence, I would not hold off on picking them up for too long.
