Nike Air Max 97 Men / Women

Walk like velvet in Nike Air Max 97

Here's a success story that has been making its mark on the world of sports footwear since the end of the last century, and it's here to stay. It's a success story that hasn't been achieved in small steps, but has been a huge hit with fans of the famous brand with the comma right from the start. Popular without being cheeky, these trainers are just as capable of tackling the asphalt of the city as the grassy paths and slopes of the mid-range mountains. That's how universal they are.

If their designer originally wanted to give them the appearance of the high-speed trains that criss-cross Japan, it was as much for the metaphor of speed as for aesthetic reasons. In addition, by including the famous comma-shaped logo between the sole and the top of the upper, the designer has drawn a series of waves, recalling the ebb and flow of the sea, like a second allegory dedicated to the perpetual motion known to sportsmen and women: train, train again, train again. And do it again the next day.

When it comes to comfort, the Air Max 97 sneakers are far from lacking. Featuring soles built around numerous, albeit tiny, air bubbles, they boast a stimulating effect on every run. The energy expended during each step is reflected back for a better rebound. Less fatigue, fewer shocks, for greater ease of movement.
