A full-length Max Air unit under a white midsole offers impact protection with every step. Designed to be lightweight and responsive, these shoes keep you comfortable all day long, wherever your feet may take you. What our experts love most about the Nike Air Max 97 Black White is the distinctive, wavy lines that run along its body, nodding to the heritage of the Air Max line. Originally released on July 1, 2019, these shoes showcase a sleek black-on-black motif on the nylon upper, lining, tongue, and small Swoosh, contrasted by a white midsole and clear visible full-length Air unit.
