Coming on the heels of dropping new music and weeks before the launch of his first-ever pair of Jordan 1's, Travis Scott has decided to announce the release of a new Cactus Jack x Fragment capsule.
The new collection will include a letterman jacket, t-shirts, long sleeves, denim jeans, full zip hoodies, a zippo lighter, and more. The pieces fit right into Scott's wardrobe of edgy, heavy-metal-inspired looks. Standouts of the capsule include the full zip electro-skeletal hoodie and the classic letterman jacket, which has the phrase "manifest your dreams and create your own world" written across the breast.
As part of the release strategy, Scott also announced via Instagram that he will be raffling off a pair of the highly anticipated TS x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 High OGs.
