Nike Air Max ‘97 Teases New “Miami Vice” Inspired Colorway
Boasting the iconic turquoise and lavender rose shades.
A sneak peek of Christian Tresser’s game-changing Nike Air Max ‘97 shoe reveals a fresh new design that seemingly takes inspiration from the classic 1980s TV series Miami Vice and its art deco-flavored pink and green logo.
The show’s logo takes front-and-center on Nike’s mood board as its color palette of turquoise and lavender rose has been incorporated onto the sneaker. Two bands of 3M reflective gray material encircle the upper lining, collar and tongue, and the upper and mid-section is composed of white mesh and leather with pink and green leather banding resting atop the classic foam midsole. A white fabric pull loop incorporates the lowercase “air max” insignia and stretches down the back of the sneaker, with the legendary Nike “Swoosh” being encapsulated in a turquoise green leather tab placed at the top of the tongue.
An official release date has not been made, but take a look at these eco-inspired Air Max 97s to see how Nike has been upping the ante.
