The Nike Air More Uptempo may no longer appear on-court during professional basketball games, but it’s become a go-to option within street-style-obsessed corners of the world.
Recently, the pair often associated with Scottie Pippen emerged in an understated “Limestone” and “Valerian Blue” colorway. The bulk of the upper takes after past Nike Sportswear classics that’ve donned autumn-friendly, Timberland boot-reminiscent “Flax” tones, as the titular tan tone covers everything from the toe box to the pull tabs at the spine. Iconic “AIR”-lettering at the profiles feature a blue suede trim, with the hairy material also making up the swoosh logo at the heel. Underfoot, Air Max units opt into the “Valerian Blue” flair that keeps the sneaker from being a dull “Limestone”-covered retro, while showcasing just how innovative the 1990s was for basketball.
Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch before 2022 ends.
