The boisterous, in-your-face branding on the side wall has become one of the biggest hallmarks of any Nike sneaker, with the silhouette itself becoming a mainstay for both sneakerheads and basketball fans alike back in the mid 90s. Now, one of the most celebrated designs, the &#8220;OG&#8221; Black\/White colorway that was last released back in 2020, is set for a return this year once again.<\/p>\n<p>True to its name, the titular colorway goes back all the way to the start of the Chicago Bulls&#8217; second three-peat era, where it was worn and popularised by Scottie Pippen himself during the 1995-1996 NBA season. Dressed in its classic black and white colorway, the upper features a a construction with black nubuck materials, while the &#8220;AIR&#8221; branding is accentuated with a stroke of white that makes it dazzle on the hardcourt.<\/p>\n<p>Having been re-released four times since its original outing, respectively in 2006, 2010, 2016 and 2020, the fifth iteration will return a year ahead of schedule if the pattern above is anything to go by. One differentiating factor is what seems to be the inclusion of a more translucent Swoosh logo on the heel, as opposed to a brighter white logo featured on its predecessors.<\/p>\n<p>You can expect this re-release of the classic Nike Air More Uptempo &#8220;OG&#8221; later this year at a retail price of US$160. We&#8217;ll make sure to update this page once we get more information regarding its release.<\/p>\n<p>In other sneaker-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2023\/01\/09\/early-look-nike-air-max-penny-1-lester-middle-school\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nike Air Max Penny 1 inspired by Hardaway&#8217;s middle school<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\u201chttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\u201d\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\u201calignnone\" src=\"\u201chttps:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\u201d\" alt=\"\u201cMagazine-Bottom-Banner\u201d\" width=\"\u201c970\u201d\" height=\"\u201c300&quot;\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nothing screams &#8220;Air&#8221; more than the Nike Air More Uptempo.
