By the mid 1990s a new breed of player had evolved in the game of basketball: a more versatile, multi-talented, and faster athlete that wasn’t quite a big man, and not quite a guard. Just think Penny Hardaway or Scottie Pippen. Holding down basketball players for years with the Force line for big men and the Flight line for guards, in 1995 nike Flyknit supplied the new breed with a line of shoes made to fit their on-court demands: Uptempo. Designed to offer support with ample cushioning in a speedy silhouette, the Uptempo line filled the void for those in-between players who were as quick as a guard, but also needed plenty of cushioning for their 6’5″+ frames.
