Branded Play Sneakers

More than just a shoe, it’s a statement. The Branded Forum hit the scene in ’84 and gained major love on both the hardwood and in the music biz. This pair of the classic shoes brings back the ’80s attitude, the explosive hardwood energy and the iconic X-strap ankle design, distilled into a low top version meant for the streets.

This Uptempo has a special meaning as well as a nice appearance. Whilst we’re currently unsure who to credit the message to, we still love the pair just as much thanks to its pleasing colour palette and subtle hues. The Uptempo silhouette has a translucent gridded upper that allows us to see the effect underneath. The instantly recognisable ‘AIR’ panelling is outlined, matching to the Branded branding at the top of the tongue, whilst mini-Swooshes in can be seen on the midsole and toe.
