Nike Air Max Uptempo "Mystic Teal" Makes a Comeback

 

Nike is bringing back a basketball classic with the return of the Air Max Uptempo “Mystic Teal”, set to release on March 9, 2025, for $165 USD.

First introduced in 1995, the Air Max Uptempo made history as Nike’s first basketball shoe to feature a full-length visible Air unit. Loved for its style and performance, it quickly became a favorite among basketball fans and sneaker enthusiasts.

The “Mystic Teal” edition stays true to its retro roots. The shoe features a white leather upper, paired with a black suede overlay that adds depth and texture. The black midsole and outsole highlight the standout mystic teal Air unit, which provides both cushioning and a pop of color.

This release is part of Nike’s effort to celebrate retro basketball sneakers in 2025, bringing back iconic designs for a new generation. Fans of the Uptempo series won’t want to miss this stylish and nostalgic drop.

The Nike Air Max Uptempo “Mystic Teal” will be available via Nike SNKRS and select retailers starting in March.
