With its bullet train-inspired upper stripes and sleek construction, the Christian Tresser-designed Nike Air Max 97 is a shoe that’s always given off a great sense of speed — even more so when it’s dressed in silver. The latest high-octane 97 to release calls upon that lustrous color yet again for the aforementioned air of agility, and also offers several new embellishments. The silver mudugard is swathed in a printed Nike text graphic design, while blue Swoosh hits on the midfoot and tongue add small pops of bright color. The rest of the upper is dressed in a shimmering silver, while the bottom half completes the arresting argentate look by way of a silver Air Max unit, grey outsole, and white midsole. Look for these Silver Surfer-esque kicks to drop on Nike.com soon for $170 USD.
