Today we get our best look yet at the anticipated original colorway of the Nike Air Max 97 in “Royal”. Officially Atlantic Blue, the Air Max 97 returns in one of its lesser-known OG looks, obviously overshadowed by the iconic “Silver Bullet” edition, featuring a blend of royal blue synthetic nubuck with silver mesh and neon yellow accents.
An absolute must-have for Air Max aficionados, the “Royal” Air Max 97 still doesn’t have a confirmed release date, but expect them soon at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. Until then, inspect them fully with these images, and stay tuned for an official release date. And don’t forget that the Skepta x Air Max 97 drops this weekend.
