Jared Ebanks A staple in The Swooshes “golden era” of hoops, the Nike Air More Uptempo continues to receive its due more than 25 years after the silhouette’s initial 90s release. Following a quick foray into boisterous outfits ready for the ensuing holidays, the latest Scottie Pippen-endorsed silhouette is extending vintage hued-vibes.
Light neutrals extend across the entirety of the model’s real estate, dominated by a crisp white perforated leather base layer. Enlarged, graffiti-style “AIR” overlays make an even more pronounced inclusion through powder blue lettering accented by sky blue trim. Color-matched at the forefoot’s embroidered Swoosh and adjacently placed rubber lace toggles, “Sail” shades infuse an aged aesthetic through the model’s laces and clad sole unit before concluding along the heel counter’s jewel Swoosh.
Enjoy official images of the Nike Air More Uptempo “Blue/Sail” below while we sit tight on further release details expected to be made available within the following weeks.
