The Nike Men's Air More Uptempo '96 Sneakers fuse retro boldness with modern comfort, featuring a synthetic nubuck upper in sleek Iron Gray, oversized AIR branding, and full-length Air cushioning. Designed for both street style and basketball performance, these ankle-high sneakers deliver iconic looks and reliable support.

## Description

With its sleek Iron Gray makeup, this Air More Uptempo pays tribute to Nike's traditional graphics by scaling them to size. Or in the case of copy/paste, the graphics are scaled with an exaggerated effect and appear to be copied and pasted onto the synthetic nubuck upper. As a special feature, a huge white Swoosh is embroidered on the “AIR” logo made of synthetic Leather over the classic shape of the Air More Uptempo.

Review: Authentic - Perfect!! I bought the black and purple ones 3 years ago and wanted another pair!! May invest in a new pair of the black and purple soon!
Review: Great fit and comfort with style! - Look sharp, great fit, and comfortable. Air toe to heal is great. But it’s more sturdy than my Hokas.
