With Air Max Day festivities now a figment of history, Nike turns its attention to celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Air Max 97 silhouette with a retro of the popular “Metallic Gold” colorway. Set to see a European release before hopefully making its way across the Atlantic stateside, the golden upper will return in all its glory with the iconic red mini Swoosh, white midsole, and instantly noticeable fully clear Air bubble and black outsole.
The Air Max 97 “Metallic Gold” is set to release at select European retailers on April 20 for $180 USD. Fans in the U.S. can purchase the “Silver Bullet” iteration on April 15 at select retailers in anticipation.
