It’s 1995 all over again—except this time, you don’t have to dig through eBay for a grail-level pair of Air Max Uptempos. Nike is bringing back the Air Max Uptempo 95 OG in the classic White/Black/Mystic Teal colorway, and sneakerheads who know the history understand why this is a major deal.
A LEGACY BUILT ON FULL-LENGTH AIR
If you were around in the ’90s basketball era, you already know what these kicks represent. The Nike Air Max Uptempo 95 was the first basketball shoe to ever feature full-length visible Air cushioning, giving it an unmistakable look and game-changing comfort. Nike literally called it “The most Nike Air cushioning we’ve ever put into one sole".
This shoe wasn’t just a performance beast—it was built to dominate. Worn by legends like Scottie Pippen, Ray Allen, Tim Duncan, Earl Boykins, and even a young Kobe Bryant in his high school days, the Uptempo 95 became a staple both on the court and on the streets.
Now, just in time for its 30th anniversary, Nike is reviving it in its OG form, and the timing couldn’t be more perfect.
DESIGN: A TRUE-TO-OG RECREATION
Nike didn’t cut corners on this one—everything that made the original Mystic Teal colorway a classic is back:
✔ Crisp White Leather Upper – Durable, clean, and fresh for any fit.
✔ Breathable Mesh Tongue – For that extra comfort on and off the court.
✔ Black Nubuck Mudguards – A bold contrast that adds depth to the silhouette.
✔ Signature "AIR" Branding on the Eyestays – Because Uptempos don’t whisper, they flex.
✔ Multiple Swoosh Logos – Outlined, embroidered, and placed where they belong.
✔ Full-Length Visible Air Unit – The icon of ‘90s sneaker tech, back in all its glory.
✔ Metallic Silver Accents Around the Air Unit – A premium touch that makes this pair even sharper.
✔ Mystic Teal Outsole Details – That signature color hit that ties everything together.
It’s everything you loved about the OG, but fresher, cleaner, and ready for 2025.
