- The Nike Air More Uptempo “Rayguns” is one of several retro basketball sneakers by Nike to feature a colorway inspired by the fictional Roswell Rayguns basketball team
- Joining models like the Nike Blazer Mid, Air Raid, and Air Force 1, the Air More Uptempo “Rayguns” is a groovy design that draws from the team uniform colors of the Rayguns, an ABA-like basketball team created by Nike for an advertisement that aired during the 2002 NBA Playoffs
- A clean white leather material forms the base of the upper
- The Air More Uptempo’s signature graffiti-style “AIR” branding displays black, orange, and yellow outlining on either side of the shoe. A yellow Swoosh is embroidered on the toe and a jeweled Swoosh can be found on the heel
- The glossy orange leather overlay on the white leather tongue features a yellow Swoosh. Visible Air units in the midsole are consistent with the original styling of Scottie Pippen’s former signature basketball shoe. Release date: March 29, 2021
With its sleek Iron Gray makeup, this Air More Uptempo pays tribute to Nike's traditional graphics by scaling them to size. Or in the case of copy/paste, the graphics are scaled with an exaggerated effect and appear to be copied and pasted onto the synthetic nubuck upper. As a special feature, a huge white Swoosh is embroidered on the “AIR” logo made of synthetic Leather over the classic shape of the Air More Uptempo.
