About the Nike Air Max 97 Utility "Black"
A single synthetic material covers the upper on the Air Max 97 Utility 'Black', released October 15, 2019 at a $175 retail price in Black with Cool Grey underlays. Where the original 1997 running shoe mixed leather and mesh, this version leans on one uniform material across the whole upper, giving the shape a flatter, more matte look.
The wavy reflective lines that wrap every Air Max 97 stay in place, along with the hidden lacing system that keeps the laces tucked out of sight. A visible Air unit runs the length of the sole beneath the tonal upper, the same cushioning setup that made the 97 the first Nike running shoe to carry it. At $175, it sits toward the lower end of the model's pricing.
