The Nike Air Max Plus 97 made its debut in Holiday 2017. A modern hybrid, this silhouette combines the upper from the Air Max 97 with the tooling of the Air Max Plus. It features a clean black and white colorway with a black-based upper and outsole, showcasing a half black, half orange Tuned Air unit. Originally released on November 21, 2017, at select Nike Sportswear retailers worldwide, it was available for $175. This model appeals to fans of both the Air Max 97 and Air Max Plus. The Air Max Plus 97 from NikeLab offers a sophisticated twist on the classic sportswear style, with a premium black leather mesh upper and a soft sockliner. The contrast comes from a white Air Max Plus midsole, featuring a mix of clear and black Air bags.
