Nike Sportswear is set to welcome a new colorway to its Air Max 97 lineage. “Purple Smoke” is the next color scheme to coat the streamlined sneaker. Its full-length Air Max unit returns in black and is housed within a white midsole while the smoky shade of purple coats the entire upper along with a speckled pattern around its mudguard. Its monochromatic look continues on branding areas such as the tongue and heel, as well as its lateral and medial sides.

Retailing for $160, the Nike Air Max 97 “Purple Smoke” will arrive soon at select Nike Sportswear retailers.
