First Looks // Nike Air Max 97 “Utility Pack”

Select Model

Though it’s most notably known for its efforts during the summer season, the Air Max 97 will still play a pivotal role in the brand’s autumnal rollout. As part of a wider collection, this Nike Air Max 97 “Utility Pack” continues a theme of earthy hues paired with oranges and bright blues, along with a bevy of utilitarian additions.

Locked to a creamy-beige base, the pair’s signature overlays look to a lighter cream hue, before introducing a streak of light blue and a full mudguard wrap of dusty tan suede. Special waffle tongues arrive in a light yellow hue, with laces, and wavy pulls following. Those are surrounded by orange accentuations to marry up with the midfoot Swoosh and Air supports, before creamy sole units and chocolate liners book-end the release. Adding some whimsical flavor is the pair’s special graphic insoles, while a crossover of playful and function rests at the heel via iridescent D ring decoration.

A release date for this fall-ready Air Max 97 “Utility Pack” is yet to be revealed, but you should expect to see pairs hit select stores and Nike.com over the coming months.
