Women's Nike Air Max 97

Light as Air, Fast as Wind

The first iteration of Air Max shoes — the Air Max 1 — first featured the revolutionary Air unit window in the heel of the outsole. This modern look pointed to an innovative design that meant business. But what’s really impressive about Air Max shoes is what you can’t see — the full-length Air midsole. Using air throughout the midsole helps the shoe protect every part of the foot for a fluid, secure motion through each and every stride. With speed comes security with these shoes. Utilizing an advanced lacing system, Air Max 97 keeps feet from slipping during long hard runs, without risk of injury from loose laces.

Made for the journey, men’s and women’s Air Max 97s are constructed with premium materials to support intense activity for long-lasting wear. Strap on your Air Max 97s for long runs, fast sprints, or while you’re out on the street — no matter what, these shoes will last.

Ripple Effect 

While function is a critical factor in choosing a running shoe, let’s be honest, you want to look good, too. Never fear, Air Max 97s have a unique, slick look. This timeless style has calming ripple lines in the upper. Modernized with beautiful colorways, your women’s Air Max 97 is a shoe you’ll love to wear.

In the updated 97, the entire outsole is visible, echoing colorways from the shoe’s upper to create a unified, futuristic look that emphasizes that revolutionary airy midsole. The original ripple lines throughout the shoe offer layers of texture and opportunities for endless colorblocking and design.
