From classics returning, like the KD 4 Galaxy, to new takes on signature sneakers from Ja Morant, LeBron James, and Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nike’s All-Star 2024 lineup spans far and wide. The celebration also includes new renditions of the Greater Than series that take inspiration from ‘90s basketball classics. Already seen with the Zoom Flight 5-inspired GT Cut 3 and the Total Air Foamposite Max-inspired GT Jump 2, the final entry in this series is the Uptempo-inspired GT Hustle 2.
Drawing inspiration from the legendary Air More Uptempo, specifically the classic Black White colorway, this GT Hustle 2 maintains its performance features. This includes the full-length Zoom Air cushioning below, its engineered mesh and neoprene upper, and the grippy sole unit. The most striking feature on the upper is the "AIR" overlay on the midfoot, a direct homage to the Uptempo's bold design.
Additionally, a jewel Swoosh graces the heel, further linking this modern sneaker to its retro roots. More details reminiscent of '90s basketball footwear include the team branding on the tongue and insole. These elements not only enhance the shoe's nostalgic appeal but also celebrate the brand's deep connection to basketball history.
The Nike Air Zoom GT Hustle 2 ASW More Uptempo will release on February 13, 2024, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's sizing, the sneaker will retail for $180.
