Gradient Uppers Grace The Nike Air More Uptempo Thank You, Wilson

Scottie Pippen's Nike Air More Uptempo has quite suddenly become one of 2022's most hyped sneakers. While the silhouette was already quite popular to begin with, Gen Z sneakerheads adore its retro aesthetic and chunky design so much to the point that the 1996 basketball shoe is selling out from retailers across the globe. With that said, we're now taking a first look at the Nike Air More Uptempo "Thank You, Wilson," and it's set to drop in full family sizes.

Featuring an ultra clean sail upper, the toe box, heel, and iconic "AIR" branding are all decked out in smooth leather, and underfoot, you'll find an extremely chunky Air midsole complete with visible bubbles surrounding the unit for added comfort, both on and off the court. Of course, you just can't talk about the "Thank You, Wilson" Uptempos without mentioning the ripstop base. Fading from a pink at the bottom to a light thistle towards the top, you're left with a color combination that would have been perfect for the spring and summer months. Better late than never though, right?

The Nike Air More Uptempo Thank You, Wilson is scheduled to release on October 21st, 2022 in men's, grade school, and pre-school sizes for $175, $140, and $100, respectively. Expected to be available at Nike, the SNKRS app, and select retailers both online and in-store, make sure you keep it locked on Sole Retriever's Twitter ourMobile App for your best chance to cop!
