In 2023, Yoon Ahn’s AMBUSH brand introduced the iconic Nike Air More Uptempo shoe as a low-profile model painted in AMBUSH’s signature bold color schemes.
Fast forward to 2024, it seems Nike is prepping the Air More Uptempo Low for an even bigger release, starting with this spotless white colorway.
The low-rise Nike sneaker is completely doused in white, resulting in a crisp paint job covering its most classic details, including the “Air”-blanketed sidewall.
AMBUSH’s Nike Air More Uptempo Low preserved many traditional Uptempo details, including its chunky Air-infused sole, OG build, and the unforgettable puffy lettering swallowing the shoe.
The general release Uptempo Low varies slightly compared to the AMBUSH’s effort. Most notably, the updated Nike sneaker appears more chunky in shape rather than leaving the puffy business with its graffiti-style wording.
But aside from the seemingly blown-up look, there’s no denying the Uptempo in these Nike Air More shoes.
The Nike Air More Uptempo is as alive as ever. It’s not only forever cherished in its classic form, popularized by NBA legend Scottie Pippen, but it’s also been embraced in unexpected iterations.
In addition to the several Nike Air More Uptempo slide sandals floating around, the Uptempo spirit lives in Cactus Plant Flea Market’s sought-after Air Force 1 sneakers, which see Uptempo’s famous bubble wording applied to the timeless low-top Forces.
Now, the classic is going low (again).
According to some rumors, the white Nike Air More Uptempo Low sneaker will be released before the end of the year. If we’re lucky, hopefully, we’ll catch them sooner rather than later.
The clock may be ticking, but there’s still time to squeeze in one last summery white stepper before the season ends.
