Following up on a successful run throughout its 25th anniversary, the Nike Air Max 97 has held its pace courtesy of a bevy of general releases, a special project with artist IDK and a new version of the model — the Air Max 97 Futura. Now, it’s continuing to take on new looks with the introduction of a fresh “Wolf Grey” colorway.

As Nike shows additional love to the Air Max 97, this “Wolf Grey” pair strikes a balance between canvas, leather and mesh layers — utilizing the shoe’s stacked upper. Its color selection emphasizes light grey hues, bouncing from one cloudy color to another. Chiming in, a complementary off-white hue coats the laces, tongue and Air-infused sole unit. In typical Air Max 97 fashion, it has been prepared with reflective layers at the upper while silver Swooshes round out the pair.

Release details for the Nike Air Max 97 “Wolf Grey” have not yet been disclosed by the Swoosh. Expect it and other spring/summer-themed looks on the Air Max 97 to arriving in the coming weeks via Nike and select retailers at a price of $175 USD.
