Travis Scott‘s custom Air Jordans, which he wore onstage during Rolling Loud Germany over the summer, have gone up for sale.
The shoes were put on the auction site, Goldin, where bidding is set to continue until Wednesday (December 20). According to the description, the Air Jordans were given as a gift to Egyptian fan Karim Abdelrahman, who was invited onstage to perform with the “SICKO MODE” rapper during the festival.

The custom kicks also come with a Letter of Authenticity from Memorabilia Evaluation & Research Services (MEARS) and a Letter of Provenance from Abdelrahman confirming their origin. As of this writing, the bid sits steadily at $4750; but it’s predicted that the Jordans will fetch up to $10,000 by the time the auction is over.
While the spoils of Travis Scott’s summer tour are on the auction block fetching coins, Cactus Jack himself is under fire for postponing a recent show just two hours before the doors officially opened.
On Friday (December 15), the Houston native was scheduled to take the stage in Chicago, Illinois as part of his Circus Maximus Tour.
Several minutes before 4:30 pm, the United Center announced that the concert would be rescheduled even though doors were supposed to open at 6:30.
“Travis Scott’s show at United Center scheduled for tonight has been postponed,” read a social media statement by the venue. “All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date once announced. More information will be posted here and emailed to ticketholders directly when available.”
Soon after the news went live, the “90210” hitmaker took to Twitter and wrote: “IM SOOOOOO F–KKKKINGGGGG HOTTTTTTTTTTT.”
Though it was unclear what he meant from the above post, he offered an explanation the following day.
“I literally spent 24 hrs on a fucking runway,” Scott explained. “Craziest shit ever.To my people in Chicago I was so ready to go crazyyyy. Chicago always been one if my favorite places. Togo ham and been waiting for it the whole tour.I will be back the first couple days of January.”

Though the specifics of the airport delay remain unclear, it is worth noting that he headlined the Soundstorm festival in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia the day prior to his commitment in the Windy City.
