Nike continues to crank out alternate variations of its classic Air Max 97 silhouette, with contemporary colorway reworks hitting our pages on a fairly regular basis. A new pair of scaly-leather-adorned models is now surfacing online, both of which feature eye-catching tonal schemes and mixed-material makeovers.

While one spotlights a black, white and orange color combination, and the other highlighting varying shades of brown, each gives way to textured leather mudguards, with a breathable mesh textile hitting the side area, top-side upper and tongue. A clean white midsole accompanied by the trademark Air Max bubble rounds out both AM97 Ultra 17 SE models. Although no release details have yet been confirmed, be sure to check back for updates.

In case you missed it, YEEZY Season 6 Crepe sneakers can now be purchased online.
