The Nike Air Max 97 White delivers a clean and timeless interpretation of one of Nike’s most recognisable performance inspired silhouettes. Finished in an all white colourway, the upper features a layered construction of mesh and synthetic materials that emphasise the shoe’s signature wave like design lines. Staying true to the original Air Max 97 design language, the silhouette is defined by its sleek profile, reflective detailing and continuous flowing panels. The full length visible Air unit provides cushioning and comfort, while the monochrome finish highlights the model’s futuristic proportions.
Backstory
Originally released in 1997 and designed by Christian Tresser, the Air Max 97 introduced a revolutionary full length Air unit, setting a new standard for cushioning and design within the Air Max family. Inspired by the movement of water ripples, the silhouette quickly stood out for its bold aesthetic and technical innovation. Over time, the Air Max 97 evolved from a performance runner into a cultural icon, embraced within streetwear and music scenes worldwide. The all white version reinforces the silhouette’s timeless appeal and lasting influence in sneaker culture.
