Think we could be around the same age so definitely have an appreciation of a lot of the Nike designs from the 90s, gotta say my favourite are the Zoom Flight 95! I still remember vividly the first time I saw them on the shelf of a shop, they looked like they came from the future!
I was born in 1984, when I was 12 I saw them for the first time and I knew straight away I could never afford them. And yeah, I bought them 2 days ago and I'm 38 years old now... I'm loving them!!! don't know why I've been all my life wearing dr martens and formal shoes.. why didn't I buy them before..?? but now who cares!
My uncle went straight to LA to buy those in black. He wore them every time, even when 20 years ago, here in México this wasn't that popular. Now I want this colourway.
I will always consider these one of my favorite shoes, period. I own Jordans ranging from Travis Scott reverse mochas, to ROY's, Raging bull 5's, OG 3's, but still see the Uptempo as a personal favorite amongst the collection (for everyday wear). My pair is the all red w the black patent letters and white backing behind those letters w the Globe Olympics 1996 embroidery on back by pull tab
definitely one of the greatest shoes of all time 👍 I wanted them so much back in the day but couldn't afford them,so I got the much uptempo.i wore them non-stop
Almost bought these in the late 90's (black with white trimmed letters I think). Decided to go with Reebok Cash (I think that's what they were called - super comfortable shoes by the way - sad they are no longer available) because they were like half the price of the Nike's. :) Last week finally picked up a pair of More Uptempos - in flax - kind of nostalgia buy if anything. Yeah, they are pretty cool for casual wear. Not particularly cushy though.
Love these. Sold my pair you had on the back wall also. Sold them used for $240 lol. That’s because they had a factory flaw where they forgot to stitch the center part of the R. I had to grab these yesterday
Fuck I been hunting these for years and finally picked up a pair of the re-retroed that were just released in May 21. Had to cop these even though I just ordered the Nik Air Griffey 1s and the Vapourmax Griffeys like 3 days ago. My girlfriend is gonna kill me when these turn up at the door.
I copped the Black Red And White pair that came out last year (these sold out in atlanta for obvious reasons, go falcons and dawgs) but those things feel like pillows too I must agree. So maybe they are one of the color ways that you were talking about, but maybe it just varies from shoe to shoe and shoe size? I have loved them since I put them on my feet and although they are heavy and bulky they are soft and plush around the foot.
This shoe is so damn iconic for me. Really, the black & white are the only pair that mean anything to me. I always called them… “The Pippens”. These were great, because they looked so good at the time, and my mom would actually buy these for me. I was wearing men’s sizes at 8 years old, so the J’s at the time were a big HELL NAH.
I had something similar to this, BUT it only had an heel air unit with a 3 M reflective AIR on the side. Exact same colorway as this except for the 3M on the side.
Always like those, always, but I wear a 13 bruh and those joints are CLUNKY and look huge on my feet lol! I still like the Black and white pair because of the material! Dope pickup!
Nice nightwing, I've always wanted to get the black colorway, but the thing I don't like is the white swoosh on the heel. I think the original release of the colorway the swoosh was black.
These are dope but i wouldnt get rid of those gym red/white uptempos they're clean ass hell as well(nice rhyme😀)an you may come to regret letting them go because chances are we'll never see that cw again EVER✌
have you ever worn the Adidas Violation '98? I had them in the blue and white colourway and wish I could still cop a pair from somewhere as I loved playing in them!
Can I have your other pair, Nightwing? I’m also a size 9 and I’m going to the CHI this summer. They’d be perfect for a trip to the city for this Bulls/ Cubs fan. 😭✊🏿
Planning on copping this but I am not sure about the fit as I can only buy this online. I am wide footed so I always go 1 up. Is this really that big? Thanks.
you said synthetic leather.. wait now I'm interested.. wonder if other ones are synthetic too the more .. what's called the one with the swoosh on instead
on Eastbay says..Get maximum style and fresh Air with the Nike Air More Uptempo ’96. Full-grain leather and Durabuk make up the upper, and three molded Air-Sole units cushion your foot for a premium feel.
Do these shoes come with shoe tags like the ultraboost has the plastic piece that holds on the Continental tag attached to the cage. Does this have any tags when u opened the shoe brand new or they didn't come with any tags on the shoes.
Pippen loved the Uptempo series and his original signature shoe featuring the full length Air, but MJ told him that Zoom Air was better and had him try it out in the Air Jordan 12 - AJ11 has full length Air. Since then Pippen preferred Zoom Air and had his first signature modified with Full Length Zoom along with the rest of his signatures that would feature forefoot Zoom Air and heel Air units.
Thanks for watching!!!

M'y. Rip father bay me this air from à thief for m'y birday

Saw them in store today & they're beautiful!
Uptempo’s are 🔥
I want them sooooo Baddd😩😭😭😭

Love 90's basketball shoes!
My uncle went straight to LA to buy those in black. He wore them every time, even when 20 years ago, here in México this wasn't that popular. Now I want this colourway.
Got mine in this color for 170$ can't wait🥰🥰🥰

I love them as well, reminds me in high school. They heavy compared to today's standards.
90s are my favorite shoe era too
I’d like to see an air much uptempo retro
That colorway is sweet! Outside of the black and olympic coloways, those are awesome!! I ran my original pippen olympic air more's to the ground.
90s shoes are my faves ... your excitement shows throughout the video lol

I have these. They're my most coveted Air Max line up.
Such a great shoe and the colorway is much better aesthetically than the pair behind you.
Nostalgia overload!!! 🔥
Love these. Sold my pair you had on the back wall also. Sold them used for $240 lol. That’s because they had a factory flaw where they forgot to stitch the center part of the R. I had to grab these yesterday
Piece of art❤️
I have the all white version. Was thinking about upcycling it with some artwork.
Saw these in store and held em for a while. If someone ever tries to rob that nike store, I feel like these are a good weapon, they were real heavy.

I copped em, LOVE EM, Comfortable AF
I like the scale on deck too good idea 💯
Your Power Rangers is teasing too..
Just got these yesterday at champs freaking beautiful

We definitely have the same taste in shoes in a 90’s shoe junky

These were great, because they looked so good at the time, and my mom would actually buy these for me. I was wearing men’s sizes at 8 years old, so the J’s at the time were a big HELL NAH.
yeaa lets gooo, soon rockin
I'll take them pippens if you dont want them jk but those are fire and 90s shoes are very chunky but that tends to equal comfort for most of the time
Great info never Jordan wore an uptempo
Man those are pretty. All 3 colorways work for me
I had something similar to this, BUT it only had an heel air unit with a 3 M reflective AIR on the side. Exact same colorway as this except for the 3M on the side.
Always like those, always, but I wear a 13 bruh and those joints are CLUNKY and look huge on my feet lol! I still like the Black and white pair because of the material! Dope pickup!
I have the black and the grey Nike much more air tees. 🔥
Love this shoe. Like the pair your giving away more than this particular one but the shoe is dope none the less.
Nice nightwing, I've always wanted to get the black colorway, but the thing I don't like is the white swoosh on the heel. I think the original release of the colorway the swoosh was black.
Copped in wheat suede colour way look awesome with blue denim jeans
I only ever see him wearing the black and white ones and the Olympic version (which I sadly missed out on)
That x men shirt is so dope
I thought these first came out in 2006? Either way. I’ve been waiting for these for a while and picked up my pair today!
I’m still kicking my own @$$ for not making an effort to get the OG Black/White colorway. Those are the ones I want the most
I’m debating between the Gatorade 6’s And the Uptempo’s
Just buy both of them lol
Thanks for the great content
Saw these today, still a full size run. Might get pair tomorrow 😂
Bagsic16 might go on sale so wait
Just Copped
Thats so weird! Ive got both the triple white and the white gum colorway and i definitely noticed a difference in comfort lol
Those gums are cool
Re-releasing in April
I just copped these exact shoes today at the outlet for$74.99 sz 12...
I wand the so badddd 😭
For the 90's
These are dope but i wouldnt get rid of those gym red/white uptempos they're clean ass hell as well(nice rhyme😀)an you may come to regret letting them go because chances are we'll never see that cw again EVER✌
Got them today
They are very nice
I’ve ordered 2 pair and had to return them because the little plastic pieces (lace loops) or whatever you call them are super yellow smh
Wish to own one
have you ever worn the Adidas Violation '98? I had them in the blue and white colourway and wish I could still cop a pair from somewhere as I loved playing in them!
Nightwing what's up this is bat Spicer they need to bring back the air Darwin's with the check going backwards like the pennies there was a fire
How does it perform on the court? How does its traction work on hardwood and blacktop/ asphalt?
👟👟🔥🔥🔥
i got them today
I have those
Can I have your other pair, Nightwing? I’m also a size 9 and I’m going to the CHI this summer. They’d be perfect for a trip to the city for this Bulls/ Cubs fan. 😭✊🏿
Planning on copping this but I am not sure about the fit as I can only buy this online. I am wide footed so I always go 1 up. Is this really that big? Thanks.
cost me hella coins but its worth it 🥵🥵🥵
Im planning to start collecting retros but i’d like to know how long do they usually last? Thanku
🔥🔥🔥
Isn't there Jewel swooshes on Foams? And Air maxs?
if i wear size 44 should i buy it 44 or more. ?
Are they as comfortable as triple white?
you said synthetic leather.. wait now I'm interested.. wonder if other ones are synthetic too the more .. what's called the one with the swoosh on instead

Do these shoes come with shoe tags like the ultraboost has the plastic piece that holds on the Continental tag attached to the cage. Does this have any tags when u opened the shoe brand new or they didn't come with any tags on the shoes.
could you wear them with out laces
This reminds me the "face" of Pippen sneaker than the air pippen line......
96 middle school days.
This is the one shoe my mom refused to buy me
dope as always
What price?
where can i get this shoes in 5.5?
Pippen didn’t like these Airs, he wanted the Zoom Air in the Jordan XI. Nike had to make a PE for Pippen that had zoom air instead of the Air Max.
Pippen loved the Uptempo series and his original signature shoe featuring the full length Air, but MJ told him that Zoom Air was better and had him try it out in the Air Jordan 12 - AJ11 has full length Air. Since then Pippen preferred Zoom Air and had his first signature modified with Full Length Zoom along with the rest of his signatures that would feature forefoot Zoom Air and heel Air units.
WearTesters when are Nike going to retro the Pippen 2s? They were dope.
We've been wondering the same thing.
can u play hoop in those?
lil_ Trump Too Heavy
Wheres the bae yawnca
good video thanks! but i wont be paying any more attention to retros til nike pulls their heads out of their collective asses and drops the Vindicate
I hace
Without Scottie MJ would not be able to drag Chicago into the finals so many times.. Awsome old school shit!
And without MJ, Scottie couldn’t quite make it to the finals. They both worked well together. No reason to try and drag one down over the other.
WearTesters scottie took the bulls to a 55 win after jordan retired
2 less wins when jordan was around
13th
A very large “grain” of salt
1st
Very uncomfortable sneakers
