Nike is expanding its partnership with Serena Williams Design Crew (SWDC) with a Nike Air More Uptempo rendition.

In celebration of Nike ambassador and professional tennis player, Serena Williams, the multihyphenate now has her own creative touch on the classic high-top, giving it a complete style makeover. The shoe comes constructed in a mix of materials, featuring twill-denim like as a base for the upper, along with ribbed tongues. The silhouette is dressed in dark obsidian, space purple, volt and summit white color scheme. The stitching is highlighted in volt, prominently emphasizing the “AIR” branding on the later. Purple lateral mini labels and an extra set of laces come with the shoe to round out the design.

Take a look above at the Serena Williams Design Crew x Nike Air More Uptempo, releasing in select retailers and online at Nike on February 1.
