About the Nike Air Max 97 Ultra 17 "Silver Bullet"
This Ultra '17 version reworks that palette for the model's 20th anniversary, swapping the original's leather for synthetic tracks and a metal toned mesh gradient that climbs the sidewall and reaches the tongue. Nike released it on August 17, 2017, at a retail price of $160.
Nike's hidden lacing keeps the eyelets off the exterior on every Air Max 97, and here the visible Air cushioning beneath the sole carries over from the original, running from heel to toe under the reworked upper. Two decades on, this pairing keeps the Silver Bullet color story recognizable even though the construction underneath has changed, tying the Ultra '17 line back to the shoe's original and most recognized colorway.
