Nike has once again partnered with the luxury streetwear brand AMBUSH to bring us yet another collaborative sneaker release. In the past, the two brands have dropped highly sought-after collabs, such as the AMBUSH x Nike Air Max 180 and the AMBUSH x Nike Dunk High, which have garnered attention for their unique designs and bold aesthetic. This time, they are bringing their creative forces together to reimagine the iconic Nike Air More Uptempo Low silhouette in a stunning “Lilac Apple Green” colourway.

Yoon Ahn, the founder and creative director of the luxury fashion brand, first teased the latest collaboration back in April via images of her wearing the beige “Limestone” iteration of the upcoming collection. Now, thanks to on-foot images by @knowing_kicks, sneaker enthusiasts can get a closer look at the Nike Air More Uptempo Low silhouette “Lilac Apple Green” as well.
The nubuck top of the AMBUSH x Nike Air More Uptempo shoe is covered in a stunning lilac hue, adding a luxurious touch to the overall design. A contrasting red Swoosh logo appears on the toebox and heels, providing a striking pop of colour that complements the vibrant lilac shades. A contemporary touch is added to the sneaker’s appearance via the apple green pull tabs on the heels, which match the green shades of the lace sets, the “AMBUSH” branding on the heels, and the larger-than-life green “AIR” branding on the side panels. These details create a cohesive and eye-catching design that seamlessly blends the unique aesthetics of both Nike and Ambush.

A purple Ambush marking on the tongue tag then adds a subtle branding detail that ties the collaboration together, further showcasing the attention to detail in the design.
Underfoot, the sole unit of the Air More Uptempo features a full-length dark purple Air unit and a matching purple outer sole unit. This bold purple colour choice not only enhances the overall aesthetic of the sneaker but also provides excellent cushioning and support for all-day comfort. The full-length purple Air unit not only adds a pop of colour to the sneaker but also delivers superior impact protection and responsiveness. Additionally, the matching purple outer sole unit offers exceptional traction and durability, making these sneakers perfect for both style and performance.
