Nike Zoom Uptempo V Premium   Black   Varsity Royal   White

Originally, this shoe was known as the Nike Zoom Flight V and was worn by Jason Kidd during some of his early NBA days. Now that Kidd is no longer with Nike, they are re-releasing a Retro version of the shoe, but have changed the name to the Zoom Uptempo V, which seems strange considering that Kidd’s name was not used for the original model name. No matter the reason for the switch, the classic shoe has been released as an Asia exclusive in this Black/Royal/White/Green colorway that definitely sports a Dallas Mavericks feel. If you are excited to see the return of this intriguing throwback, you will only find them at select Asian retailers such as Kix-Files.

Color: Black/Varsity Royal-White-Pine Green
Style: 366570-041

    these are dope

  2. TL Says:

    The colorway is OG, but the material isn’t. They looked much better with the synthetic suede upper and without the Kidd logo it’s an easy pass…Another F’d up retro!!!

    TL called it on the materials but seriously… this shoe was WAY ahead of its time. Kobe IV nothing… these were ground breaking because they’re basically a low. One of the best balling shoes I ever owned! DEF pick-up if they hit the bay at a good price!

    I think kidd’s name was on the original shoe. On the tongue.

  5. sneaker head Says:

    Yep, I live in Japan so that I saw this shoe already.
    I didnt like materials like someone said.
    Retailers here start discounting these shoes already.
    I am going to buy this only when I found it less than 100buck.
    I think its pretty much possible because this is a nation where you can find PENNY2 at outlet stores. HAHAHA

    You have to be fucking kidding me let me give you 3 reason why you fucked up on this classic shoe Nike.

    1. you put leather on this shoe instead of Suede
    2. you made this an Asia exclusive when you should have made this shoe a GR here in the States
    3.It’s going to be another 13 year before I see this shoe done correctly and by then I will probably have lost interest in this shoe.

    Thanks alot Nike for fucking up one of my favorites.
