Shortly after the “Safety Orange” edition surfaced of Nike’s Air Max 97, the model’s “Ultra” successor is welcoming a popular color scheme from the Swoosh archives. This time around, the Nike Air Max 97 Ultra incorporates the notable “Sprite” color scheme with the combination of neon and blue throughout its layered upper. White joins that mix as the dominant color visible on the outsole, mudguard and full length Air Max unit. As a subtle detail, you’ll also find a scale pattern on the mudguard to complete the revamped “Sprite” colorway.

Set to retail for $160 USD, the Nike Air Max 97 Ultra “Sprite” currently doesn’t have a confirmed launched date. Stick with us for more information and let us know if you plan on adding these to your sneaker closet once they hit retail shelves. Air Max fans can check out the three colorways of the Air Max 270 that are expected to release in March.
