The never-ending renditions of 1996’s Nike Air More Uptempo adds another tally with this new take on the classic Chicago Bulls colors. While it seems that combination of red, black, and white has made its way onto this Scottie Pippen classic one too many times, Nike surprises us with A-grade color-blocking that should have Uptempo fans in a frenzy.
Dubbed the “Red Toe”, this Air More Uptempo applies the daring varsity red specifically at the toe-cap as well as the under-layer of the AIR. The pull-tabs, interior insole, and the Swoosh on the outsole follow suit, while a black covers the majority of the upper and the upper midsole. A solid white rubber completes the look to complete this Red-Toe colorway.
For now, official images of PS and TD sizes have surfaced, with GS sizes on its way as well. It’s not certain if adult pairs will be available, but stay tuned for updates as this news develops.
