Winterized aesthetics have taken the forefront of The Swooshes’ most popular Air Max cushioned silhouettes as of late. With Christian Tresser’s 1997 design continuing to enjoy its 25th anniversary, a black and “Navy pairing takes hold of the latest Nike Air Max 97 offering,

Centered around its full-length deep “Navy” mudguard, additional color-matched samplings treat the tongues’ nylon construction before speckled white accents mark the underlying black mesh creating a grid-like pattern throughout the midfoot. Further pitch-black hits are placed along the inner lining, lacing structure and pull tabs before a lighter tone is established through embroidered “University Blue” Checks and stitched tabs whereas a clad white midsole sits atop the models’ staple Air Bag and two-toned tread.

Enjoy official images of the Air Max 97 “Navy/University Blue” below while we anticipate further release details as they’re made available by the Beaverton-based brand.

For more in The Swooshes wheelhouse, Sashiko-inspired embroidery emboldens the latest denim construction of the Nike Dunk Low.
