Nike introduces a new Air Max 97 Terrascape sneaker model with a muted tonal palette of black and white for the season. The sustainable chunky sneaker is made with a blend of slate grey, light grey, and charcoal grey for a monochromatic look for the most part.
It is made using recycled materials for a sustainable mindset and also adds a touch of breathable mesh fabric. Additionally, the sneaker has white stitch detailing and a web-style mudguard as well. It notably sits on top of a speckled midsole foundation with colorful accepts. Rounding out the rest of the design includes the branded heel pull tab at the back that nods to Terrascape and a white tonal Nike Swoosh with crosshatch accents.
