Nike Air More Uptempo

The Nike Air More Uptempo “Sky Blue” is a summer-inspired colorway of the retro basketball shoe. The former signature shoe of Scottie Pippen features a gradient white-to-blue perforated leather base. The transformation from white to Sky Blue begins on the toe and forefoot and continues through the heel. As such, the model’s graffiti-style “AIR” letters on the side also feature the gradient design, with the “A” and “I” appearing in white leather and the “R” in Sky Blue leather (the letters are reversed on the right shoe). A light blue Swoosh is embroidered on the top of the white mesh tongue. A clear jeweled Swoosh resides on the heel. Visible Air bubbles appear in the white and Sky Blue rubber midsole to complete the look. Release date: May 1, 2021.
