Nike Air Max 97 CR7 Gets "Portugal Patchwork" Treatment
Inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo’s childhood.



Adding to its expansive CR7 series in collaboration with star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, Nike drops a “Portugal Patchwork” edition of the Air Max 97 silhouette.
The Air Max 97 CR7 “Portugal Patchwork” takes inspiration from Ronaldo’s childhood in Portugal, harking back to when the athlete’s mother would sew up holes in his shoes after hours of being worn playing on the pitch. The kicks boast a vibrant red base with tonal patchwork details above the white midsole and touches of black and gold along the heel tab and sides.
