The Nike Air Max 97, a creation of renowned designer Christian Tresser, remains a pinnacle in the sneaker world, consistently challenging the boundaries of innovation and style since its debut. Nike is gearing up to capture hearts with another rendition of the sneaker, this time unveiling the model in a luxurious “Black Metallic Gold” colorway.
For this rendition, the Air Max 97 is enveloped in a harmonious interplay of black and gold. From the base, the mudguard's leather has a finely textured finish, drawing attention to exquisite craftsmanship. Along its boundary, a striking metallic gold piping elegantly snakes its way, lending a regal touch. The iconic Swoosh makes a prominent appearance on the lace dubrae, atop the tongue, and midfoot, all of which come in metallic gold. The rest of the upper layers black mesh and leather, with the final gold accents adorning the Air Max embroidery and pull tab stitching. Ensuring the hallmark comfort of the Air Max line, a full-length Air unit rests underfoot, snugly nestled between black foam and black rubber.
The Nike Air Max 97 Black Metallic Gold will release Holiday 2023 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $185.
