After signing a deal with the Jordan Brand, the rapper’s Jumpman Jack featured in the Travis Scott x Jordan commercial during the 2024 Grammy Awards ad break. They aren’t football cleats but per the commercial, the design is inspired by Travis Scott’s “non-stop lifestyle as an elite performance athlete.”

Scott’s Jumpman Jack are suited for everything from basketball to clubbing. And their clubbing utility shone ahead of the Super Bowl. The Astroworld mogul hit the inaugural Roc Nation Sports Super Bowl party in Las Vegas’ Poodle Room at the Fontainebleau with stars like Tom Brady, Queen Latifah, Ciara, and Leonardo DiCaprio.
