About the Nike Air Max 97 Premium "Blue Gale"
Black and white split the base of this Premium make up, with Laser Fuchsia and Blue Gale layered into the wave paneling for a sharper, cooler contrast than the model's warmer general release colorways. Nike priced the shoe at $180 and released it on June 6, 2018.
Underneath, a reinforced midsole carries the full length visible Max Air unit that has run heel to toe since the silhouette's first release, with the outsole built for everyday traction. The Premium tier here means the materials and finishing sit a step above a standard general release, without changing the wavy shape that has defined the Air Max 97 line. Blue Gale reads as the coolest note in the mix, set against the warmer Laser Fuchsia pop on the heel and eyestay.
