Well, Supreme has revealed it’s latest collaboration on the Nike Air More Uptempo and I can’t say I’m surprised. The brick-selling brand is a favorite of resellers and hypebeasts alike and did exactly what I thought it would — plastered its name right across the sneaker.
The Air More Uptempo has always had a special place in my heart, and my closet. It’s a sneaker that looks unlike anything else — and it proudly showcases its tech along the midsole and upper. Now, Supreme has done what Supreme does: create something that will probably sell out instantly for a premium price. This latest collab just pisses me off a bit because the Supreme Foamposites, regardless of whether you liked them or not, showed some creativity. These do not.
There are rumors floating around the Internets that Supreme’s work on the Air More Uptempo will follow a similar blueprint to what the brand did with the Air Max 98; three or four more colorways may be coming including a white-out, red one to match the Supreme logo, and a possible camo one.
No word on an official release date yet but we’ll try and update you…

Horrible.
They have just killed a legendary Nike shoe.
These are tragic. I never liked the shoe in the first place, but I understand their appeal. But this right here is an abomination. Supreme sucks.
L
still better than currys
Fucking trash
Supreme shit.
It’s in suit with what fashion brands would do. Ugly, but apparently strikes discussion.
I’ve never understood the hype around Supreme colabs. They literally just slap their name on something and people go crazy.
Not even collabs but on their standalone products as well.
I mean, come on, bricks? bricks?? Seriously?
They did ruin them, but that’s kind of Supreme’s thing though, to over-brand their …XSupreme releases. So they probably just created a best-seller for the Supreme-fans.
