AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian recently appeared on Complex's Sneaker Shopping, where she shared insights into her sneaker collection and her admiration for Travis Scott’s Nike line. Although she is a prominent figure in the fashion industry, even she finds it necessary to reach out for special favors from her network.
During the episode, which aired on February 2, Kardashian expressed her enthusiasm for Travis Scott’s sneaker designs, explaining how she often contacts him to ensure she secures the latest releases. As the aunt of Kylie Jenner’s two children with Scott, she is not shy about asking for family assistance when it comes to exclusive sneaker drops.
Known for her discerning taste, Kardashian describes herself as a sneaker “snob,” only favoring select silhouettes. However, she openly admits to having a significant collection of Travis Scott shoes, particularly the latest colorways, including a much-coveted pink pair. “I’d say the most shoes I have are Travis’,” she remarked. “I’m not one to typically call in family favors, but I had to reach out for the Travis pinks. I call, and then they show up.”
The sneakers she referred to are part of the upcoming Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Pink Pack,” expected to launch in May. In addition to her admiration for Scott, Kardashian has also ventured into the sneaker world herself, recently unveiling her own model, the Skims x Nike Rift Mesh, which is set to launch on February 5.
This ballerina-inspired sneaker was part of the NikeSKIMS Spring ’26 Collection, featuring BLACKPINK’s Lisa in the promotional campaign. Kardashian revealed that Lisa was her first choice for the celebrity ambassador role. “We got my dream person, which is Lisa from BLACKPINK,” Kim shared. “She’s an incredible dancer, stunningly beautiful, and immensely talented. I adore her style, and we filmed in the most picturesque location in Paris.”
Kardashian elaborated on the creative direction, noting, “She transitioned wearing all black and dips down to wear all pink… I thought it was really clever to incorporate those two colorways and feature Lisa prominently.”
For fans of both fashion and music, this collaboration highlights the intersection of celebrity culture and branding in the sneaker industry. To catch all the details, watch the complete episode of Sneaker Shopping featuring Kim Kardashian.
