Andrew Rizzo Well this is a surprise. Following reports of a Summer 2025 return, the Nike Air Max Uptempo just released in its original “Bulls” colorway on the Champs website. Men’s sizes are currently on sale for $115, down from the standard $160 MSRP, and there’s a discount code that gives you an additional 15% off with free shipping.
Championed by the likes of Toni Kukoč, the Air Max Uptempo “Bulls” debuted in 1995 alongside other OG colorways like the “Mystic Teal,” which is also said to return in 2025. The sneaker is part of a broader resurgence of 90s-era models, joined by Deion Sanders’ Air Diamond Turf and Charles Barkley’s Air Max CB 34.
Not to be confused with Scottie Pippen’s Air More Uptempo, which came about in 1996, the OG Uptempo was the first-ever basketball shoe to feature a full-length visible Air unit. The “Bulls” colorway features a black mudguard, white leather upper, and Chicago-worthy pops of red on the Swoosh logos and pull tabs. It last released in 2019, with pairs eventually finding their way to outlets.
As mentioned, the Air Max Uptempo “Bulls” is available now via Champs for 28% off. Also use discount code PARFEB15 for an additional 15% off and free shipping (making the total price $97.75). A larger release via Nike channels and other retailers is anticipated in the coming months.
