Nike Air Max 97 Black Metallic Gold

The Nike Air Max 97 Black Metallic Gold is presented in a blend of various tones, featuring black, Varsity Red, white, and metallic gold as the primary colors. Golden highlights skillfully interrupt the sneaker's all-black appearance, appearing on a curved overlay around the black mesh upper, and on branding details such as a lace jewel resembling the Swoosh logo and shimmering 'Air Max' lettering on the webbed heel tab. This shoe features a black polyurethane midsole with visible Max Air cushioning that spans the entire length of the sturdy rubber outsole. Our experts appreciate the Max Air cushioning technology that makes this shoe a classic running shoe due to improved comfort. The Nike Air Max 97 Black Metallic Gold debuted on November 9, 2019, with a retail price of $180. Following the reintroduction of OG colorways to the Nike Sportswear collection, Nike launched the B-Sides capsule, flipping the color blocking for a nostalgic aesthetic. This iteration maintains the original metallic gold design with a black upper complemented by a gold finish along the mudguard and tongue.
