A high performance basketball sneaker from the ’90s turned beloved lifestyle silhouette, Nike’s classic Air More Uptempo is a truly unique piece of footwear – and it’s now appeared in a familiar “Diamond” colorway. With its bold Air branding, bulky look, and association with the great Scottie Pippen, the Uptempo has always been a sneaker that made a statement. This makeup opts to do that in a vibrant fashion, equipping a familiar aqua-colored base with bold black detailing on the signature “AIR” letters and a large translucent jewel Swoosh on the heel. Down below, a teal midsole with a translucent Air Max cushioning unit completes the look. These Uptempos are now available on Nike.com and at select stockists in both adult and kids sizes, so enjoy a full set of official images directly below.
