The Air Max 97 Golf NRG 'Grass' takes Nike's retro running shape onto the course, released January 27, 2020 at a $190 retail price. Faux green grass covers most of the upper, keeping the wavy overlay lines that run across every Air Max 97, while a white leather mudguard carries an embroidered yellow Swoosh set inside a textile window.
Below the upper, visible Air still runs through the midsole, unchanged from the running version, but the outsole is swapped for a semi-translucent rubber unit with a traction pattern built for grass rather than pavement. The NRG label marks it as one of Nike's higher-profile projects rather than a standard general release, a fitting tag for a shoe that turns a decades-old running silhouette into golf equipment.
