Introducing the Nike Air More Uptempo
The Nike Air More Uptempo, originally launched in 1996, remains one of the most iconic basketball sneakers of the 1990s, instantly recognisable for its oversized 'AIR' branding boldly wrapped around the sides.
The design embodies the loud, confident attitude of the decade while highlighting Nike’s groundbreaking visible Air cushioning that stretches nearly the full length of the sole - a true statement of both comfort and performance.
Popularised by NBA legend Scottie Pippen, the Air More Uptempo perfectly blends function and streetwear style, offering high-impact support on the court and a bold look that has become a lasting symbol in fashion and hip-hop culture.
