Perhaps due to a huge market shift from trainers to retro hoops shoes like the Dunk and Air Jordan 1 Lows, the Nike Air Max 97 didn’t see as much action this Summer as years past. Despite this, Christian Tresser’s iconic design has still been a consistent player in Nike’s retro lifestyle lineup, with several low-key colorways flying under the radar. From the looks of things, the silhouette will continue to be drip-fed through the Fall, with Dunks, Jordans, and Air Force 1s forming the bulk of the Autumn catalog for the brand. There will be a few drops, though, including this new tonal olive arrangement that will keep fans of the silhouette fulfilled for months to come.
Showing much restraint, the Swoosh has opted for a classic mesh, leather, and reflective construction that works through a series of olive hues. The lights shade sits atop the reflective overlays, the darkest on the outsoles. mid panels, pulls, and middle overlays. Simple sail midsoles and Air supports offer a clean break from the otherwise tonal release to complete the design.
Grab an official look at this tonal olive Nike Air Max 97 here below, and look for these to become available in the coming weeks from select Swoosh stockists and Nike.com.
