An Up-Close Look At Nike's Air Max 97 Ultra
The Ultra is a teched-out update of an old-school favourite, and one of the most talked about releases for a while. Nike’s commitment to heritage has ensured the shoe retains all the highlights that defined the OG, but they’ve stripped it back and built it in such a way that would have been unimaginable . The new ‘Silver Bullet’ hasn’t been created to replace the classic, but rather to complement it.
When you take a look up close, you’ll see just how advanced the new 97 is. A series of weave patterns create depth across the upper, while wavy strips of fused encircle shoe for support and flair. Padding and comfort haven't been sacrificed as part of the weight loss effort, and the stretched-out Air unit sports some of the clearest windows we’ve ever seen. The modern magnificence of the Ultra build has a streamlined sophistication all of its own and we’re sure it will feel right at home on top of your rotation.
