With summer underway, some of the biggest sneaker players have reimagined classic designs as clogs, slides, and other warm weather-friendly footwear.

Recently, another pair of Nike Air More Uptempo Slides emerged, continuing the Swoosh’s trend of slip-on, laceless updates to iconic performance designs. The pair trades classic color schemes from the “golden era” of the NBA for a modern experimental look: uppers opt for dark-colored styling, while the midsole sees a royal blue and purple gradient. The hand-reminiscent outsole rounds out the design with a tonal grey look.

No firm nike.com launch details have been disclosed by the brand, but that’s likely to change soon. While you wait, enjoy official photos of the pair ahead.

In related footwear news, the Air Jordan 1 “UNC Toe” is set to release in late July.
