Anybody that was cognizant of the sneaker world in 1996 remembers this shoe—and they would even if it hadn’t already been retroed a few times since. The boldest of the bold as far as Nike branding goes on a sneaker, the Air More Uptempo was everywhere in ’96—from the feet of your classmates to a special appearance in George of the Jungle— and one of the top sneakers in that year packed with an almost countless number of amazing sneaker designs. Every kid wanted a pair, especially after seeing Scottie Pippen wear them on the way to another Bulls NBA Championship. Nike is bringing back the unforgettable “AIR”-emblazoned shoe again for its 20th anniversary in 2016, in the original black and white colorway as well as what is seemingly a tribute look for Scottie Pippen and the Bulls in white and red. Get a great preview of each colorway here, and stay tuned to Sneaker News for further information on the anticipated return of the Nike Air More Uptempo.
