Houston rapper Travis Scott releases collaboration sneakers with PlayStation to promote new PS5

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Houston rapper Travis Scott was a top Google search Friday because of his new shoes.

Scott teamed up with Sony to create the new Nike Dunk Low Cactus Jack X PlayStation sneakers.

Sony launched their brand new console, the PlayStation 5 on Thursday, causing many retailers to experience site issues due to high traffic.

Scott posted on Instagram calling the collaboration “TS5,” like “PS5.”

So why are the shoes such a big talking point online? Well, besides the fact that Scott’s launches are historically highly sought after, this one is particularly rare.
