This colorway belongs to the 2019 'Have A Nike Day' collection, a run built around a vintage Nike smiley face graphic and slogan that Nike spread across several Air Max models that year, the 97 among them. Here the shape takes on Indigo Storm through the mesh base, with white overlays and Aluminum detailing across the ripple panels and heel.
The clearest signature of the collection sits at the laces, where a circular lace lock swaps in the smiley face in place of the usual branding. Priced at $170 and released February 28, 2019, this pair keeps the rest of the 1997 shape untouched, from the wavy reflective piping to the visible Air cushioning under the foot. The mood stays playful rather than technical, aimed at the shoe's Air Max Day timing.
