Vibrant Neons Brighten The Nike Air More Uptempo

The Nike Air More Uptempo is no longer top-of-the-line in terms of performance basketball criteria, but it continues being one of the most beloved hoops-informed sneaker designs of all-time.

Ahead of fall, the Scottie Pippen-associated silhouette emerged in a mostly black and white color combination not too dissimilar from its original style. Signature “AIR” lettering at the profiles, as well as other branding, and pull tabs at the tongue and heel, however, introduce vibrant neon hues seemingly straight from the 1990s. Rich purple animates the pop art-inspired branding on the profiles, allowing for an equally-eye-catching yellow to take on jewel swooshes at the spine; Air Max units underfoot follow suit.

Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
