The Nike Air Max 97 retain the same design details that made the original model a favorite sneaker and made it famous: undulating lines, reflective trim, and Max Air cushioning throughout the length.
Origin
This style from the late 1990s represents an era of striking design with a futuristic approach. Thanks to the reflective, fluid lines, the silver tones reminiscent of Japanese bullet trains, and the full-length Max Air cushioning in one of its first applications, this shoe continues to attract attention. It was first released in 1997. Since then, it has been released in a plethora of colors, with the most beloved being the silver, which was the launch color, and of course the gold that came out a little later.
Air Max
The revolutionary air sole unit of Nike began to be used in Nike shoes starting in 1978. In 1987, the Nike Air Max 1 was introduced with a visible air sole in the heel, allowing fans of the model not only to feel but also to see this groundbreaking technology. Two years later, the Nike Air Max 95 appeared with a visible air sole in the forefoot, while the Nike Air Max 97 was released with the first full-length unit. The shoe became a favorite model among runners, as expected from its undulating design lines. More than two decades later, it still makes waves.
