Currently celebrating its 25th anniversary, the sneaker is back with a bang once again, and Nike has been pumping out some immense options that are still available to cop now!

Here at The Sole Supplier we’ve rounded up some of our favourite pairs that you can get your hands on right now, so check out our choices below and make sure to let us know via our social channels if you decide to add any of these excellent kicks to your sneaker rotation!

Sometimes you just can’t beat the simplicity of a black and white pair of kicks, and that’s where the AM97 “Off Noir” comes into play. Offering up a premium nubuck and suede construction, if you’re searching for a premium pair that will round off just about any outfit no matter what the season then these are absolutely going to fit the bill. Tonal branding and a white midsole round off the look, adding an extra layer of depth to the already clean design here!

Bearing a striking resemblance to the OG “Silver Bullet” Air Max 97, the Nike Air Max 97 NH “Metallic Silver” once again injects a touch of luxury into the 1997 classic silhouette. The buttery suede uppers accentuate the flowing look of the design, with black branding contrasting the rest of the uppers for a clean addition. Beige panels and pull tabs at the tongue and heel seal the deal, making these a must-have on our cop list.

Those who prefer utilitarian stylings will no doubt be excited regarding the Air Max 97 NH “Rough Green”, which offers up a suitably militaristic colour scheme. Combining two different shades of olive green, this pair uses toughened materials for a durable and seasonally-appropriate construction. Plenty of cushioning resides underfoot for optimum comfort and we’ve got no doubt that these will make the perfect finishing touch to your outfit.

As part of the 25th anniversary celebrations for the AM97, Nike recently unveiled the “Atlantic Blue Yellow” colourway, combining aspects from two legendary releases in their own rights. Both the original “Atlantic Blue” and “Volt Yellow” pairs are highly-regarded amongst Air Max collectors and are still popular today, so this reimagined version has since proved incredibly popular with die-hard Swoosh fans.

Drawing inspiration from Tinker Hatfield’s original Air Max 1 “University Red” colourway, the Nike Air Max 97 “White Red” offers up collegiate vibes that are ideal for the warmer months of the year. Crafted from tumbled leather and athletic mesh, the clean colour blocking here will certainly stand out from the crowd and draw attention to your feet. The full-length cushioning unit will also ensure you’ll never tire of slipping into these comfortable kicks.

Here at The Sole Supplier we’re all eagerly awaiting the return of the legendary “Silver Bullet” AM97, but while it doesn’t seem to be inbound just yet, you can certainly get your hands on the next big thing - the Nike AM97 “White Bullet”. Mimicking the design language of Christian Tresser’s legendary OG release, hits of white and silver and accentuated with red details, while mesh uppers will keep your feet refreshed and cool.

The “Bred” colourway is always a popular option amongst serious Nike-heads, and this Air Max 97 “Black Red” certainly doesn’t let the side down. At a first glance the pair might look stealthy and pared-back, but upon closer inspection, striking hits of red are placed across the uppers that really bring the sneakers to life. If that wasn’t enough, 3M reflective strips surround the lace enclosure, meaning that these kicks will shine bright even in the darkest of hours.

Last but by no means least, the Nike Air Max 97 “Grey Black” comes in clutch with a supple suede upper that adds a touch of class to the sporty silhouette. Unsurprisingly decked out in grey and black, the kicks are reminiscent of the legendary Vac-Tech version of the AM97 that still remains popular amongst collectors today. If you’re searching for a versatile pair that will suit any occasion then look no further, as these tick all the boxes!
