Although the Air More Uptempo was initially intended for basketball, a sneaker as bold and unique as this could not be used strictly as a performance model. Scottie Pippen of the Chicago Bulls was the most notable to wear the shoe. He wore it in the original black-and-white colorway during the 1996 NBA Playoffs, which led to another championship. Later, he wore it in the "Olympics" colorway for the 1996 summer games. This helped the Dream Team win a gold medal. The Air More Uptempo was a popular sneaker by 1996. The More Uptempo, 20 years later is still as bold and fashionable as ever. Nike Sportswear continues to create new and exciting colorways of the iconic model, as well as looks for children. Foot Locker has all the latest Air More Uptempo releases for grade school boys.
