As much of the focus stayed on course, something in the fashion industry veered off course as the stars were out at the F1 Grand Prix in Vegas. When Travis Scott went out in an unexpectedly meaningful outfit, rumours of an upcoming adidas Y-3 collaboration began to circulate. Many are interpreting the rapper’s appearance as anything but coincidental because he was spotted sporting a rare adidas Y-3 x NEIGHBOURHOOD tee.

Clothes have long been a strategic language for Scott. His public wardrobe selections frequently serve as covert news releases, announcing the next phase of his artistic endeavours. This most recent action, which combines a cult Japanese counterpart with adidas’s experimental Y-3 line, is seen as his most obvious signal to yet. If the collaboration is successful, it would combine Yamamoto’s precise, deconstructed precision with Scott’s trademark wild edge.

Was this an easy, carefree flex, or was it a purposeful lane change? Tell us what you think.
