Nike has been teasing the 20th anniversary of the Nike Air Max 97 with limited releases right before everyone got a chance to grab the iconic Silver Bullet colorway a few weeks back. Next up is another precious metal inspiration with the Nike Air Max 97 Metallic Gold slated to release at retailers on May 17th. Of course, these archival silhouettes always get a lightweight Ultra tooling for a more modern lifestyle-ready approach, but we didn’t expect the AM97 to get a woven update like it has with the above pictured Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Jacquard 2.0. The name is a mouthful, but it definitely looks sleek enough and true enough to form thanks to the side panel waves and cross-hatching on the Jacquard woven upper. There’s still no word on an official Release Date for this updated Air Max 97 creation, but you can expect it to release sometime around May 17th when the other silhouettes in the “Metallic Gold” Collection release. Stay tuned for more info right here on Sneaker News.
