The Air Max family just continues to grow as Nike recently unveiled a new “Michigan”-inspired Air Max 97.

This time around the recognizable Wolverines color scheme dresses the popular model, highlighting the dynamic lines found on the upper. A bright stripe of bright contrasting yellow accents the primarily reflective 3M silver and updated blue mesh upper. While a visible blue Air unit midsole and a simple sectioned rubber outsole round up the design of the shoe.

Priced at $160 USD, the Air Max 97 “Michigan” is set to release at select Nike Sportswear retailers May 1.

Also, make sure to take a full look at the atmos x Nike Air Max “WE LOVE NIKE” pack.
