Recently seen taking a page out of Sean Wotherspoon’s playbook for two corduroy-focused variations released exclusively in Japan, the Nike Air Max 97 is back for the month of December to continue along with its oft-seen in-line releases. In terms of materials, everything is pretty much kept standard, as its lightweight upper keeps its traditional knitted fabrications, with 3M hits lining its wavy overlays. However, it’s the accented hits that are the main focus of this new offering, as vibrant neons of orange and green are paired with its purple base layer, giving these newly released Maxes an outfit that almost channels a “Joker” aesthetic. Colored hits also transition down into the outsole as well as the full-length Air Zoom unit. You can find a list of retailers currently selling these listed here below, so enjoy a closer look before you pick up a pair for $160.
