The Nike Air Max 97 'Neon Seoul' Finally Gets A Release Date

This is the moment you've all been waiting for. Since we first laid eyes on it back in April, sneakerheads everywhere have been (im)patiently waiting for the release of the Nike Air Max 97 'Neon Seoul', and now, we finally have a release date!

Designed by graphic designer Gwang Shin, who won the Nike On Air contest, the 'Neon Seoul' is painted in a predominantly black colour scheme with a matte finish. Vivid neon waves shoot across the entire upper, taking inspiration from South Korea's flag, and 3M reflective detailing pays homage to the bustling city's colourful night scenes.

Now, for that all-important release date. The Nike Air Max 97 'Neon Seoul' is set to launch during Air Max Day on March 26th!
