Nike adds a new tonal iteration of the Air Max 97 sneaker model to its roster with the latest Muslin and Pink Foam blend for the season. The shoe was made with inspiration from the bullet train back in the 90s and this time around, it retains the overall shape of the shoe.
It is made from premium materials that include a soft suede at the upper in a chocolate brown color. It is then detailed with nubuck leather and hemp canvas throughout to embody the overarching colorway palette. The Pink Foam details can be seen detailing the Swoosh branding on the quarters of the shoe and at the insoles, along with the strip accents on the heels and the forefoot. It all rests on top of a gum outsole foundation.
