After taking a throwback approach to the Air Max 97 with the “Game Royal/Metallic Silver” colorway, Nike reveals its latest version of the popular footwear in a sleek new iteration. Donning a stealthy dark gray theme for most of the upper, the subtle yet eye-catching details provide unique characteristics that distinguish this sneaker from its previous counterparts. A monochromatic striped pattern is overlaid across a speckled design along the lateral, while luxe leather panels coupled with bold lime green details on the side, Swoosh logo and outsole enliven the overall shoe.

Take a closer look in the images above and be on the lookout for this colorway hitting shelves on January 26, 2019 for $160 USD.
