New Nike Air Max 97 in Retro Style Drops in May

The coveted Nike Air Max 97 turns 25 this year, but releases have been few and far between up to this point. However, more sneakers may be released in the coming months, and this Nike Air Max 97 is probably the first.

Official images confirm the Nike Air Max 97 with retro styling and lightweight materials. The sneaker comes in a mix of canvas, mesh, and suede, while the inner lining is made of terry cloth.

In addition, it has a summery colourway that consists of light shades. Light brown and cream alternate on the wavy upper, and Nike logos contrast in blue. Finally, retro Nike brandings on the heels and insoles, as well as an aged outsole, round off the design of the new Nike Air Max 97.

The new Nike Air Max 97 has not yet appeared on the Nike release calendar, but it is believed to drop on 21 May at nike.com. We always show you releases like this and others in our release calendar and in the Grailify app.
