To this day, artists like Travis Scott, Kanye, and Tyler, The Creator influence trends with their custom clothing lines and shoes. Here are a couple of hip-hop themed customs that pay homage to influential artists, both legends and new artists.

Tyler's aesthetic is different, to say the least. Still, his influence on streetwear has been undeniable since his Odd Future days. These customs by sponsored artist @chadcantcolor pay home to Tyler's incredible 2017 album, Flower Boy. The yellow, orange, and green color scheme is perfect for the Spring/Summer seasons coming up.

Despite his recent controversies, Kanye West has still been one of the most influential artists since he dropped The College Dropout. Together, him and Kid Cudi dropped one of the best albums of 2018 with Kids See Ghosts. This pair of Yeezys by sponsored artist @wallychamp15 uses the same purple and pink color scheme from the album's cover to pay homage to the iconic duo.

Travis Scott dropped one of the biggest albums of last year and created a whole aesthetic to go along with it. Including performing on sets with functioning roller coasters, Travis made Astroworld into more than just an album. Sponsored artist @feelgoodthreads used a variety of colors to create his own personal take on the Astroworld cover art.
