The Nike Air Max 97 “South Beach” Appears For Summer

The Nike Air Max 97 “South Beach” Appears For Summer

Currently in its 24th year on the market, the Nike Air Max 97 has historically been overshadowed by sone of its visible Air-cushioned counterparts (at least stateside). Throughout 2021, however, Christian Tresser’s design has appeared in a handful of compelling styles, with the latest one indulging in a “South Beach”-appropriate ensemble.

Akin to previously-seen options from the Swoosh inspired by Miami, namely the Nike LeBron 8 “South Beach”, the upcoming pair boasts vibrant pink and teal accents across its body. The most-bottom vamp overlays effectively divided the predominantly white sneaker with the two-tone punch, while branding at the mid-foot, tongue and spine also join in on the topical color palette. Underfoot, the full-length Air Max unit forgoes any color duo or gradient in favor of a uniform blue tone, delivering a makeup fitting of the “South Beach” moniker.

An official Nike.com release date hasn’t been confirmed, but this SoFlo-friendly pair is likely to launch soon. In the meantime, enjoy images of the shoes here below.
