Despite various offshoot styles, the Nike Air Max 97 has maintained a steady influx of compositions that remain true to the circa 1997 construction. Further expanding the palette of the Christian Tresser design is a duo of crimson-red hues that prepare the model for an early 2024 outlook.

While a bright white midsole gleams with colorless fervor, the silhouette’s remaining real estate is anything but. Dipped in a deep shade of burgundy, the model’s mesh base layer clashes with jet-black “Anthracite hues at the tongue, laces inner lining and the upper-most overlays. The pitch-dark tone finds a similar approach on the full-length mudguard while the tongue’s wine-red quarter is offset by “University Red” swooshes. The latter’s crimson appeal is applied additionally along the mid-foot’s profile swooshes and the full-length Air cassette – which sits atop a calm “Gum” outsole”
