It struck all the right chords when it was first unveiled during Pippen's playing days, so there is no sense in Nike messing with perfection. The Nike Air More Uptempo 96 Black White (2023) was released on October 15, 2023, and retailed for $170.

Additionally, Nike created these shoes for versatile players who stand over 6'5”, like Reggie Miller, Penny Hardaway, and Scottie Pippen. Eventually, Uptempos became known as the perfect shoes for vertical players who require more cushioning, speed, and stability.

The Uptempo series made its debut in 1995 with the Air Uptempo.

Generally speaking the Nike Air More Uptempo fits true to size (TTS), so make sure you secure the right size!
