After initially teasing his second Air Max 1/97 collaboration with Nike back in July, Sean Wotherspoon has revealed more of what to expect from the upcoming release. Posting on Instagram, Wotherspoon revealed a sneaker with a light blue corduroy upper, dark blue sole and yellow detailing. The sample is then finished with two mini Swooshes and a smiley-face footbed.

Wotherspoon’s caption reveals more of what to expect from the sneaker which is “still early on the sample process.” The Nike collaborator goes on to show that he is thinking of adding new color to the sole, changing the sock liner to yellow and making the air bubble infrared. Other potential changes include changing the upper color from just light blue to a gradient effect from light blue to dark blue. As it stands, there is no news on when the final version will be revealed but keep an eye out over the coming months.
