Nike's Air More Uptempo Sneaker Gets a Cargo Khaki Update
Nike prepares for the fall season to arrive later this year with a new tonal iteration of the chunky Air More Uptempo sneaker model -- the latest spotlights the Cargo Khaki colorway palette. The retro design language nods to the 90s with the dramatic chunky shape.
It is detailed with a cargo khaki upper which is further detailed with touches of black that can be seen in the AIR branding detail. There are also brighter hints of pecan and alpha orange that are added to the mix to bring a touch of contrast. The construction spotlights a blend of suede leather with canvas and mesh materials for a breathable touch along with a rubber sole unit foundation.
