2020 is certainly flying by because Fall is only but a handful of months away, and it appears that Nike is already in preparation of releasing footwear offerings reflective of the leaf-changing season. And when Autumn rolls around, “Wheat” sneakers like to show face, and one of the variations that will be available to you this year is this forthcoming Nike Air Max 97 colorway. Ridding of its golf spike outsoles and rub-away mudguards seen on its last two appearances, the Sportswear staple styles up this next makeup with a duo of “Wheat” shadings alternating amongst its wavy overlays and treading, as well as stark white accents coated atop the midsoles, laces, and sock liners. Moreover, the traditional midfoot Swoosh windows now host a tumbled leather backdrop which isn’t oft-used on this particular Air Max model. More images of the kicks are available here below, so peep a closer look while you wait on their arrival likely on Nike.com and additional retailers in the coming weeks.

In other news, another G-Dragon x Air Force 1 looks to be in the works.
