While maybe if you thought about it long enough you may be able to come up with a colorway of an Air Max model that wasn’t stellar, it would take quite a long time and it would be a much better use of your time to compile a list of your favorites. This colorway is extremely close to the OG colorway but there are a couple of subtle differences to make it a true OG colorway retro. Even though they are a bit different these will certainly be a trip down memory lane for any long term sneakerheads. Hard to believe that we are at the point now that you have had to have been a sneakerhead for that long to be able to properly remember the OG colorway of the Air Max 97, but we’ve made it this far and it doesn’t look like we will be stopping anytime soon.

This is a really great new colorway of the Nike Air Max 97’s that comes in a White/Beet/Black/Lucky Green colorway. The upper is predominantly white, but features accents of the rest of the colors throughout the rest of the shoe. If you dig these, you can grab your pair from City Sole.
