1. This shoe is a classic & still looks dope af 2. If you have bad feet / fallen arches, this is a great shoe for bball 3. Once worn in they feel less high & heavy
In terms of cushioning technology, the Nike Air More Uptempo uses Air Max cushioning technology like other basketball shoes with air max units such as the Air Max Uptempo. If you're standing still you cannot feel the air that much because of the PSI of the air max units. These air max units were designed to withstand great pressure from 6ft + basketball players so you could imagine the amount of weight they applied to the shoe per step. In terms of feeling the forefoot air max unit, it is quite hard to feel it due to its sheer size. Of course, the Nike Air More Uptempo will never feel the same as the OG due to the different manufacturing processes that Nike has decided to use for its Air technology. The real Air/Air Max fanatics will know that Nike used a different gas compound in their Air units back in the day up until 2005, in addition, Nike also produced all Air Max units with a middle seam that went throughout the whole unit. The thickness of the plastic used to encase air in Air and Air Max units was also thinner compared to Air/Air Max units today. This is why you probably can't feel the Air units that well.
Back when they made premium shoes for ball that didn't feel like you were standing on a water bed in knitted polyester socks, and weren't intended to be replaced in two months. P.S. - If you "feel" slow, run faster.
H.E. Pennypacker Correct, sir. Nike and other brands are now making sure that the shoes now are obsolete in quality after a couple of months so that you have to buy more often. Hence more profit for them. Also, the knit materials are just marketing gimmick to get more profits with lower cost vs. genuine leather that was used before. Nike is bowing down to stockholders and not to customers.
@@LEX98034 yes and no, knit shoes are Def more comfy out the box and for pros who play 82 games with different shoes every game this makes sense but for consumers leather feels amazing after brokem in and last longer
Saying this looks bad is one thing, then these guys said it's one of the worst. Man! With how it performs? I'll play with these all day just because of its looks.
It's because the vintage OG original 96 were open cell foam. The newer sneakers are now mostly made of closed cell foam to keep them from falling apart and crumbling fast. So all the older retros were much lighter cause open cell foam is a whole lot lighter than closed cell. Google that info my friends.
hey solebros i have an idea for you.. i mean you already did 2 or 3 videos on this. Do replica vs authentic on newer models like lebrons, new kobes , kds .. Please !
A player of Pippen’s size and strength is not feeling that bulk the same way though. Pipp was absolutely steamrolling in these. When I started buying Uptempos I was taken aback by how tough the shoe is. Definitely the kind of shoe to push the limits in. And that traction pattern has to be one of the all-time greats. Not surprised you don’t see players rocking them today but I still think they can hang if the right player has them.
alvin perez I've played on almost all retros that he played and i'm 6'4, agree with you because none of these hurt my feet at all even jumping and landing freakin hard on them
Just purchased a pair of these today - literally only because of the white and purple colour. Am concerned they won't perform as well on the court. I normally wear Jordan Why Not Zer0.1 Low which are amazing! Strong ankle/heel lock, light and good reaction and for speed. These Max Uptempo are now, I am thinking, are more vintage fasion shoes than actual basketball shoes. If I wear them tonight at the game, I cannot return them....hmm...
This was like kids talking about old TV's. "Why that huge box in the back of the tv. What where they thinking??" Hahahahahaha aaah the new generations 😅
leather is overkill on this shoe. they were nubuck originally. a lot better material choice for this design. Pip actually didnt like the high ride of the Max Air so Nike made him a Zoom version
*More players today are hurting their knees and ankles in light shoes with shit support.* Paul George D Rose Russel Westbrook 🤔🤔🤔 But this isn’t a basketball shoe. lol
I'll take this shoe against any one of those new low tops from Kyrie or Kobe. Sneakers are super garbage nowadays. The Air Penny 2 alone kills 99% of today's kicks. The Pippens are way out of your guys' league.
You guys just don’t like old school stuff. You’re definitely millennials or Gen Zs. I’m 19 so I’m Gen Z but I don’t just not like stuff because they’re not the newest thing. These are one my favorite shoes of all time aesthetically speaking. You guys are just really opinionated and biased. Just because you guys don’t like them doesn’t mean that no one else does. The Air Jordan 3s are one of my favorite shoes to ball in. Most people either like light and bouncy or bulky and a little bouncy with good court feel. I am the latter. The Air Jordan 3s are in the middle of those things but with a little less bounce.
I don't like them to hoop tbh, i have long and narrow feet and i can't really really make my feet tight in those and i get terrible terrible blisters due to my feet moving inside.
Do the does it still basketball on those rodmans ndestrukt, there from the same season jordan wore the 11's pippen wore theese and rodmans the ndestrukts
I find that toe room is terrible even for just a day of casual wear the outside of the bottom of my foot is blistered up and I'm not even running or playing in them
That happened to me before and blamed and gone through 3 pairs of bball shoes. The sales person told me to try different brand pure cotton socks - am glad I listened.
Yeah I agree horrible basketball shoes. Only thing they are good for is to walk around in. Question? Are they similar to the Jordan 12s, I want to get those but afraid I'll get same raw deal of the pips.

These are in my top 10 favorite sneakers of all time.

Anyone else got mad when they said "If you cop this your a hype boy" like Tf
He's a poser
"If you like living you should subscribe" well fuck
It's probably been suggested: any of the Nike Shox basketball models? Nike Shox BB4. Or any of the Adidas TMac signatures.

SAMMY you cant feel anything because you have small feet, wears GS shoes
alvin perez I've played on almost all retros that he played and i'm 6'4, agree with you because none of these hurt my feet at all even jumping and landing freakin hard on them

Was anyone at all surprised that sammy couldn't feel the cushion?? Anyone🤔
TheCrispyjones no

This was like kids talking about old TV's. "Why that huge box in the back of the tv. What where they thinking??" Hahahahahaha aaah the new generations 😅
This shoe is a classic! Shouldn't be hating....
Somebody won a championship in those shoes stop complaining
My personal favorite style 💯🔥
Pip was 6'8", MJ was 6'6"
Is it a sleeper--- adidas revival cloadfoam.
Anybody that cant feel the cushion in these has fucked up feet 😊😂😂
Thanks for actually following through on my request!
is it bad that i actually kinda like the way this shoe looks....
no?
Destiny Scott Nah. They fye 🔥
Not at all, getting a pair just for the heck of it.
This shoe is supposed to grab your attention, it's the type of shoe that screams "hey, look at me, don't I look cool?"
i like the aesthetics depending on the colorway
My grandma used to carry a whole bag of rice and she never complained about the weight. Common 17 ounces is massive, really?!? Cool vid though.
Dang! They lace shoes super tight!
leather is overkill on this shoe. they were nubuck originally. a lot better material choice for this design. Pip actually didnt like the high ride of the Max Air so Nike made him a Zoom version
Poor Sam at 2:16😭💕

It has Airmax 360 in it, they don't use it as much as they use too
"if you like living!" it actually mean if you want to live, you better subscribe!

Does it basketball: anything from the new balance 800 line
Do the Reebok Kamikaze 2
How come you’re so clueless if it’s max air or not? Do your homework.

They had the giant Nike sign bball shoes the summer b4 this. I forget the name. Just like these tho
you guys should try the brand lack compressions- they are pretty nice and only 40 bucks- if you do could you do a video on it
I'll take this shoe against any one of those new low tops from Kyrie or Kobe. Sneakers are super garbage nowadays. The Air Penny 2 alone kills 99% of today's kicks. The Pippens are way out of your guys' league.
They are from 96 .... prolly one of the better looking Nike shoes for back then ,,,, obviously beside Jordan’s lmao
