The Nike Air More Uptempo '96 'Split' pays tribute to Scottie Pippen, the NBA athlete who gained fame while wearing this shoe. In 1996, Pippen accomplished two significant milestones in his career: securing his fourth NBA championship with the Chicago Bulls and winning his second Olympic gold medal with Team USA. This remarkable shoe highlights these achievements through its unique 'AIR' lettering, with crimson on one side and navy on the other. The upper is made of black nubuck material and showcases Pippen's personal logo on the heel tab. To ensure a comfortable and smooth ride, the shoe boasts a two-tone Phylon midsole furnished with visible Air-sole cushioning.
