Platinum violet and sea glass sit side by side on the Air Max 97 Futura's suede upper, a cooler, pastel-leaning pairing than the line's earlier Phantom release. The wavy overlays and hidden lace loops carry the shape of the original 1997 design, now built in the Futura's single-tone suede construction rather than mixed leather panels. A full-length Air unit still runs beneath the sole from heel to toe.
Built to women's sizing, this colourway released June 16, 2024, exactly a year after the Futura's Phantom pairing hit at the same $180 price. The violet and sea glass tones lean toward spring and summer wear, a lighter direction than the greys and creams of the Futura line's Phantom pairing from the year before.
