The Nike Air Max 97 Futura Returns in "Triple Black"

Nike Sportswear continues to evolve its iconic Air Max 97 silhouette within the "Futura" collection, taking a detour to the dark side with an upcoming "Triple Black" release.

Maintaining its heritage elements, such as the flowing visible Air units and multiple overlays, the new iteration embraces a thoroughly dark aesthetic. Starting with a solid, black mesh upper, Nike incorporates a layer of depth with multi-material leather and suede overlays, all adorned in matching shades of black. This tonal black theme extends to the mesh tongue, liners, and rear pulls.

A slight shift in the monochrome presentation is made with a charcoal midsole, a subtle deviation that contrasts the otherwise all-black design. The overall effect is a stealthy version of the Air Max 97 that is as striking as it is understated.

Details about the release date remain undisclosed, but you can expect 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.
