All-Star Weekend is a time for the entire NBA and its fan base to relax for a moment before the playoff push begins. Nike and other sneaker brands also get in on the action by having releases that coincide with the All-Star Weekend festivities. With the Zoom Air Flight 95 “Football Grey” already being revealed, it only makes sense that Nike would add the Nike Air More Uptempo “All-Star" to the mix.
Following the theme of the other 2023 All-Star releases, the Nike Air More Uptempo “All-Star" indulges in a slick white/black combo that is accented by shades of blue throughout the silhouette. White tumbled leather covers the toebox and mudguard while the rest of the neutral shade lands on the infamous “AIR” overlay running back to the heel of the sneaker, atop the tongue, and running down onto the midsole from the various letters. Piping the aforementioned “AIR” overlay is a light blue leather, matching the jewel Swoosh back on the heel. Stealthy black hits land on the nubuck underlay and mesh tongue while tonal laces and pull-tabs keep things almost entirely two-tone. Completing the design is the midsole and outsole combo that indulges in a white/black color combo.
The Nike Air More Uptempo All-Star is slated to release in February 2023, likely around NBA All-Star Weekend, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $165.
