After Supreme kicked off a seismic resurgence of the silhouette back in 2017, the Nike Air More Uptempo enjoy a long-standing tenure at the top of Nike retro hoops offering. In mid-2019, things started to slow, though throughout 2020 we began to see sprinklings of the silhouette arrive here and there — including the return of the OG Olympic and Black/White colorways. Though we’re not on the cusp of a Supreme-style spike, we are beginning to see more and more of the silhouette, with it steadily adding more future options. The next to appear is a simple-yet-stylish design, this Nike Air More Uptempo “Sunset” that tacks on the signature early evening hues of orange and purple against an all-white base.
Mid oranges are arranged around the signature profile lettering, while a slightly lighter peach hue tints the tongue tag. Dusky purples arrive at the rear Jewel Swooshes, and at the tongue and underfoot branding — the latter joined once again by its complimentary orange hue. Everywhere else is blanked-out in all-white, save the mismatch branded insoles that complete the design.
A release date for this Nike Air More Uptempo “Sunset” has not yet been set, though the timing of the official image leaks and its given color palette, it’s likely that we’ll see these hit Nike.com around Spring. Until then, enjoy a detailed look at the pair here below, and be sure to keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for further updates.
