With 2016 just less than a month away, Nike is readying for the 20th anniversary of one of the greatest ’90s basketball shoes, the Nike Air More Uptempo. Often considered Scottie Pippen‘s unofficial signature sneaker for having famously worn them during the Chicago Bulls’ record 1995-1996 NBA season, the model stands out for its inflated “AIR” branding across the entire shoe’s side panels. It also features a full-length Air unit and a rubber outsole.

In addition to OG colorways like the Black/White one pictured above Nike will be dropping the model in new editions including a Red/White edition dubbed “Bulls Home” and a White/Gum version. Stay tuned for more information about the 2016 Nike Air More Uptempo.
