Ross Dwyer Winter’s cold embrace is descending rapidly upon us, beginning to clutch the country with cold winds and smatterings of snowfall. Usually when the seasons switch, that means it’s time for a sneaker switch-up as well, as many sneakerheads will turn to darker-colored shoes or sneakerboots to combat the inclement weather. However, some sneaker lovers choose to look ahead to warmer days instead of staying mired in the disheartening cold — and they’re sure to be delighted by the unveiling of this new “Barely Green” Air Max 97 for the fairer sex, a shoe dropping this winter with a color that’s perfect for next spring and summer. The upper features a fusion of very faint green and tan tones for an almost gradient-style look: the top half offers a soft mint green on the bullet train-inspired overlays, tongue, and throat before giving way to a mild tan on the lower panels and nubuck mudguard. The upper’s fade then disappears into a clean white midsole, clear Air Max cushioning unit, and light grey outsole. Enjoy a set of official images below, and look for these minty Maxes to arrive at Swoosh Brand stockists later this season for $160 USD.
