Nike Uptempo Shoes

This is largely due to its in-your-face, unapologetic “AIR” text running from the heel, all the way through the shoe’s upper — giving away the kind of cushioning tech used underfoot. In addition to the bold branding, the Uptempo uses more Air technology than any sneaker before it, with five visible Air units on each side running heel to toe.

A Legend Off the Streets

The Air More Uptempo was donned by some of the league’s greats, like Scottie Pippen, who played one of Chicago’s most memorable seasons, which ended with an impressive 72-10 record. Now, the Air More Uptempo has made its way off the court and into the streets with more colorways than ever. Coming in signature styles in men’s and kids’ sizes ranging from gum outsoles, camo uppers, and a City edition, this loud sneaker has made waves off the court in recent years. Pair these ’90s classics with some Nike Throwback Woven pants or Nike Tech Fleece clothing at Foot Locker today.
