The iconic Nike Air Max 97 is paying homage to the equally iconic Air Foamposite One silhouette with the “Game Royal.” Reimagining details from the basketball shoe, this iteration comes dressed with a blue mudguard resembling the distinct Foamposite shell and a blacked out carbon fibre panel with a hidden Swoosh on the midsole. Adding a black mesh and leather upper with branding hits on the toe box, tongue and heel, the model sits on a similarly icy translucent sole for a nice cool finish.

The Nike Air Max 97 “Game Royal” is available now at select retailers like 43einhalb.com for approximately $235 USD, and will be available soon on nike.com for a price of $180 USD.
