The Nike Air Max 97 Takes on a Two-Tone Tan and White Color Scheme

Nike Sportswear introduces a minimalist spin on its classic Air Max 97 silhouette for the "Futura" collection, with a new white and tan release set to drop soon.

Honoring the core elements of its heritage, such as the flowing visible Air units and multiple overlays, the new edition showcases a streamlined aesthetic. Starting with a clean, white mesh upper, Nike adds a layer of sophistication with multi-material overlays of leather and suede, all in subtle shades of tan. This tonal tan color palette extends to the mesh tongue, liners, and rear pulls. A return to white accents completes the design, evident in the laces and tongue tags up top, the midfoot mini Swooshes, and the undercarriage, save for the tan-tinted Air supports hidden within the visible bubble.

As for the release date, details remain undisclosed, but we anticipate pairs to be available at select retailers and Nike.com soon.

While we wait for more information, take a moment to admire the official images of the pair below and stay tuned to our official Twitter account for additional updates.
