Nike Sportswear has been dangling one of their most iconic Air Max models outside of the holy trinity of the Air Max 1, Air Max 90, and Air Max 95 ever since the middle of November. We’re talking about the Nike Air Max 97 of course, as Italy’s favorite colorway known as the “Silver Bullet” has been landing at select retail locations for quite some time, but is yet to see a widespread release. If the plan was to build hype around the 20th anniversary of the model, then it’s working because photo sets of the Nike Air Max 97 “Silver Bullet” look better by the day.
Today we have some good news for those of you who will be in the Netherlands in the near future, as Solebox Amsterdam has the exclusive on the Nike Air Max 97 Silver Bullet on January 14th. Does this mean other stores will follow suit? We’re still unsure. Solebox did do us the solid of showcasing this Air Max 97 original colorway in full details, as the Metallic Silver upper is accented by sleek side panel waves and Varsity Red branding throughout.
Check out more detailed shots below and know that we still have our fingers crossed for a more widespread U.S. release date in the near future. In the meantime, head over to our Release Dates page for a better look at the coming attractions.
