Air Max Uptempo '95

The Air Max Uptempo ’95 comes from an era when Nike Basketball wasn’t interested in keeping things subtle.

Built for the hardwood during the golden age of ’90s basketball, the silhouette became known for its oversized AIR branding, chunky proportions and visible cushioning that demanded attention. This black and volt colorway stays true to that attitude, pairing a dark base with electric hits of color that make the details hit even harder.

The basketball DNA is legit, and that’s exactly what makes this one interesting. The Uptempo wasn’t designed to blend in, and that’s still part of the appeal today. The bold shape, layered construction and unmistakable sidewall branding feel just as confident now as they did back when players were wearing them on court.

Underfoot, full-length Max Air cushioning delivers the comfort that helped make the model a favorite in the first place, while the leather and patent leather upper brings plenty of structure and durability.

One of those Nike Basketball classics that still knows how to make an entrance.
