Nike Gets Extra Reflective on this Black and Blue Air Max 97

Select Model

Nike is fitting out their Fall catalog with a slew of “Reflective” Air Max models, with this new Nike Air Max 97 joining a duo of Air Max 90s in donning special 3M Swoosh-laden paneling.

Like one of those 90s, this Air Max 97 suits up in all-black, with pops of bright blue reserved for the brand marks. There’s an extra splash on the outsole detail, but for the most part, the pair is dressed in jet black. Materials don’t differ too far from the norm, either, as mesh and leather make up most of the release; the mid panels, however, look to the pack-specific reflective paneling.

Grab a very first look at this new Air Max 97 here below, and look for these to hit select Swoosh stockists and Nike.com in the coming weeks; a date is yet to be confirmed. As always, keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter account for further updates.
