Scottie Pippen’s iconic Nike Air More Uptempo is set to return this year in its lauded “Olympic” colorway. The last time the aforementioned silhouette hit the shelves was four years ago in 2016. For all you youngins, the Nike Air More Uptempo “Olympic” was originally worn by Scottie P and Charles Barkley during Team USA’s road to gold during the Summer 1996 Olympics held in Atlanta.
The navy-based retro sneaker is crafted from nubuck leather and is dressed in contrasting white “AIR” overlays that drop down to the midsole, both on its lateral and medial sides. Additional elements include the red embroidered Swooshes on the tongue and underfoot, and a gold “#8” representing Pippin’s Team USA number on the heels.
The Nike Air More Uptempo “Olympic” has already landed on shelves over in New Zealand and Australia. The rest of the world will have to wait for a confirmed release date. In the meantime, take a look at Jordan Brand’s Summer 2020 lineup.
