Nike Air Max 97 ESS Shoe

Revamped with a gritty character.

The distressed sneaker is one crazy trend that dropped this year, and it's now taking over the iconic Air Max 97 shoe. Taking the ripple-inspired design to the next level, the upper is crafted from tan leather and suede that's made to deliberately look worn. Dark-hued blotches give it a distressed, pre-loved aesthetic. Interestingly, the mudguard tears off over time to reveal a metallic gold inner base, taking the detailing to a whole new level. Foam midsole with Air Max cushioning sandwiched between a rubber outsole keeps you grippy and stylish.

Out of a research lab in Oregon, USA and onto the courts and fields, Nike is highly coveted for changing up running and training styles. Doing so with the help of world elite athletes, the turnout not only helps everyone to train like an athlete, it keeps strain and pain at bay. These world class beacons of sport are also roped in to combine their spirit and passion with Nike`s cutting-edge technologies for a stellar range of pro athlete collections.
