NBA All-Star Richard ‘Rip’ Hamilton Featured in Sneaker Rollout

Hip-Hop artist Travis Scott, in partnership with the Jordan brand, recently released the rollout with the Scott’s Air Jordan 6 “British Khaki,” which dropped Friday, April 30, featuring former NBA All-Star and Detroit Piston player Richard “Rip” Hamilton.

The partnership with Scott’s “Cactus Jack” apparel line is just in time for the sneaker’s 30th anniversary and Scott’s 29th birthday.

“It is awesome to support Travis Scott on the release of the new Jack 6S in collaboration with Brand Jordan,” Hamilton said. “I’m a sneakerhead and enjoy collecting shoes, and I’m impressed by Travis’ creativity, artistry and entrepreneurship.”

“When he came to me and I saw his collection, of course I was on board with supporting him however I can. It’s great to work together and to see each other win.”

In the promotional items for the shoe, Hamilton adorns “Cactus Jack” apparel, with the new sneakers, in a post-apocalypse desert setting and a basketball goal before him. In the images released, he holds his signature face mask however in the promotional video he puts it on before making a free throw.

“We had a great time shooting the videos and doing the promotional material for this release. I know people are going to love them – and they come in sizes for the whole family. My followers should definitely look forward to more exciting things, like limited release products and dope content on sneakers. I’ll also be putting together a couple of events later this year, so stay tuned for more to come,” Hamilton said.
