To go along with the Air Force 1 and White version of the Air Max 97, Nike’s latest tie-dye collection will include a second Air Max 97 that comes in Black. This colorway of the Air Max 97 places the colorful tie-dye print on a different area than the white pair as the print can be seen on the entirety of the mudguard as well as on one of the signature overlays. Following we have tie-dye throughout while Purple hits the Swoosh logo and other small details throughout. Finishing the look we have Black on the midsole and a White rubber outsole.
Check out the official photos below, and look for this Air Max 97 to release in the coming weeks at select retailers and Nike.com.
