Travis Scott, Cactus Jack and Nike have introduced the new Cactus Court collection around Carlos Alcaraz and his return to competition at the 2026 US Open. The project brings footwear and apparel together through a tennis-focused collaboration connected directly to Alcaraz’s appearance at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Nike and Scott introduced the project through a campaign video shared on Instagram shortly before Alcaraz played his first competitive singles match since April. The clip features Scott and Alcaraz exchanging lines while wearing unreleased Cactus Jack x Nike pieces.
Alcaraz then entered Arthur Ashe Stadium wearing the same coordinated look from the campaign. His outfit included the new Cactus Jack x Nike Zoom Vapor 12 HC in a Pale Ivory and Cacao colorway, paired with matching Cactus Jack x Nike apparel.
The appearance marked Alcaraz’s return to singles competition after a 139-day absence caused by a wrist injury. Alcaraz defeated Roman Safiullin in the first round as Travis Scott watched from the stands in a blue Cactus Jack x Nike look.
Scott’s look also provided another view of the long-awaited Cactus Jack x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Ice Blue.” The sneaker previously appeared during Nike Toma in Atlanta and now leads the Cactus Court footwear offering.

Following Alcaraz’s victory, Scott joined him as Cactus Jack revealed the wider collection. The range brings together the Air Force 1 Low, the performance-focused Zoom Vapor 12 HC and a selection of apparel tied to the tennis theme.
The Air Force 1 Low uses an Ice Blue and Celestine Blue palette. Textured material covers much of the upper, giving the familiar silhouette a different surface treatment. The Zoom Vapor 12 HC arrives in Pale Ivory, Cacao Wow, Muslin and University Red. The tennis shoe carries Travis Scott’s reverse Swoosh and adapts the collaboration to a performance model designed for the court.
Apparel extends the Cactus Court concept beyond footwear. The assortment includes Scott’s Ice Blue pullover, a lightweight earthy-toned Cactus Court Pro Shop jacket and graphic pieces inspired by Alcaraz. Additional reported items include a brown bomber jacket and a white Carlos Alcaraz graphic T-shirt.
Cactus Jack has also opened a Cactus Court Pro Shop at 47 Chrystie Street on New York’s Lower East Side. The temporary store carries the collaborative collection and gives the US Open project a physical presence in the city. The shop remains open through September 4. The full Cactus Court collection follows the New York launch with an online release through Cactus Jack on September 4, extending the project from Alcaraz’s return at the US Open into a broader Cactus Jack x Nike release.
