The shoe customizer is back with a literal interpretation of Travis Scott's Air Jordan 4.

Travis Scott took the sneaker world by storm this year when he released the Houston Oilers inspired "Cactus Jack" Air Jordan 4. The sneaker has found itself on multiple "best of" lists and was a favorite among sneakerheads. Considering the shoe's popularity, it only makes sense that a customizer like The Shoe Surgeon would want to bring their own interpretation to it.

Instead of the blue suede seen on the original "Cactus Jack," the customizer instead uses olive-colored ostrich leather that makes the shoe literally look like a cactus. The midsole of the shoe is still back and white, while the blue plastic is replaced by olive paint. As far as the branding on the back heel is concerned, the Cactus Jack logo remains on the left shoe while the Jumpman logo is seen on the right. 

If you're looking to buy these, expect to pony up quite a bit of cash. These will be releasing on Saturday, January 5th for the hefty price of $3,500 and can be found on his website theshoesurgeon.com.

What do you think of these customs? Are they better than the original shoe? Let us know.
