Adding to Nike’s expanding Air Max 97 lineup is yet another brand new colorway dressed in Amarillo and Team Red. It comes with some Arizona State vibes as the shoe starts off with a white leather construction on the mudguard and portions of the wavy upper. A gradient that goes from Team Red on the toe to Amarillo is seen on the neoprene side panels and toe with the same two colors also appearing on the tongue, inner liner, heel, the full-length Air Max unit, and the rubber outsole.
Grab the official photos below, and look for this Air Max 97 to release in the coming weeks at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $160 USD.

It officially became Nike Inc. in 1971.The Nike swoosh was designed by Portland State University student Carolyn Davidson，The slogan “Just Do It” was inspired by serial killer Gary Gilmore, who said “let’s do it” just before he was executed by a firing squad in 1977.
