OFFICIAL Nike Air More Uptempo OG BLK/WHT 414962-002 APRIL 2016

[eightfivefresh]

You saw them more because they were cheaper lol

Werent they 89.99?

Kids bought um cuz they were cheaper

I know my garbage can school had kids flooded with much uptempos and air barrages because they were cheaper than the more expensive models and sigs nike put out

It was one of the more popular take down versions of a shoe

That's EXACTLY what I meant.

 

[eightfivefresh]

I had the all whites "mores" in 10th grade 96ish. At that time they were more expensive than Jordans. Around my way the mores were subpar.

Yea, they were. Jordan's ran $125 and these were $140, which at the time was CRAZY for alot of people & parents, even if they had it, bc the "Much" was an option.

Like I said in my story... I had the "More" while most other kids had the "Much", but it wasn't a big deal back then, bc nobody focused on what was considered "Takedown" and what wasn't. Ppl knew mine were different and I got props for it, but nobody took anything away from the "Much" owners.

Just Different, Less Pettier times.

More Uptempos were always better looking and more coveted but nobody clowned on the takedown model as long as it was a nike shoe you were safe, i know this because i didnt have nikes until 96 in 8th grade and before then it was a problem but once nikes hit my feet it all stopped

I didn´t even notice as a kid. I had the black and white More Uptempos and a little later my cousin had the white and blue Much ones. Now I know it´s two different models, but at that time it was the same shoe to me.

Was like

They came out in 97 too i think

Yea the jerry rices are sick tho.
I remember looking up ubiquitous inthe dictionary

 

[rcjbbp1313]

yeah i got a pair, they were 160 i believe and i dont know how i swung that price with my parents or maybe my grandparents helped but that price was ridiculous for my family back then but they were awesome. they were very responsive and mad comfy, i need a retro in that colorway bad

I love those white/blue joints. Those and black/white/red were my favorite ones

Only way I could afford these shoes back then was cutting the neighborhood lawn, starving to death during school lunch time and saving up

White/blue would have been a perfect summer shoe if they would have retro them

 

[noblekane]

you guys familiar with the much uptempo did it have encapsuled air in the forefoot?

 

[dr damon]

^^^. Yea they had encapsulated forefoot air

I'm excited! I missed out on the last release of the black & white more uptempo. Was only able to cop the 96 Olympics Pippens. I'll be saving money for both of those pairs next year.

 

[cruzberg]

at least two pairs of the blk/whites. all time favorite shoe. the red/whites don't do anything for me. if the all whites drop i'll cop a pair of those as well. 2016 is going to be a great year for 90s kids with these, jordan 12s, and penny 2s.
