The Nike Air More Uptempo Flax celebrates the decades that saw basketball become a household name, featuring unique three Air Sole units on the midsole. A flax nubuck material covers the entire shoe, starting as an overlay on the mudguard and proceeding to the vamp. The quarter panels majestically display the AIR branding in a nubuck sew-on, with perforations between the bulging letters. The sole adopts a playful design, with a light brown outsole and insole, while the Air Sole units are visible through a transparent patch on the heel. The tongue uniquely deviates from the nubuck base to mesh textile, complemented by a hook eyelet lace-up system crisscrossing across the tongue. Released on October 14th, 2017, this shoe's initial price was $130. Scottie Pippen’s Air More Uptempo appears in a simple colorway with this Flax and Wheat offering, showcasing full grain leather and nubuck construction with tonal ‘AIR’ lettering on the side panels and an asymmetrical lacing system for added style and function.
