The Nike Air Max 97 is BACK and better than ever. After a quiet 2019, this sneaker is going to be hitting shelves hard in 2020. One of the standout pairs that we have seen thus far has to be the Nike Air Max 97 “Charlotte Hornets”. Coming with a poppy colour palette and sticking true to the classic silhouette, AM97 heads will be clambering to get a pair of these.
Starting with the technical details first and foremost, Nike have opted for a wealth of premium materials. Coming with a supple leather across the overlays, this is complemented by the use of a breathable mesh that offers the wearer an all-day comfort. Underfoot is the classic full-length Air Unit that the Air Max 97 made famous. With other silhouettes now utilising this innovative Air Unit, none look as good as the sleek AM97.
With the base of the shoe coming in a clean white, this gives the sneaker a Summer feel. The Summer vibes are only furthered by the classic Charlotte Hornets colourway of Purple and Teal. Coming on the overlays, tongue, and branding, these injections of colour make this sneaker stand out from the rest. Rounded off with hits of orange on the heel-tab and Air Unit, the Nike Air Max 97 “Charlotte Hornets” is set to drop soon at select retailers. Keep it locked to The Sole Supplier for all of the best news and releases from the sneaker community.
