Nike Air Max 97 SE First Use College Grey

Launching as part of the ‘First Use’ collection, the Nike Air Max 97 SE ‘College Grey’ celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Nike Swoosh.

A muted palette is applied to the upper, featuring a textile base with wavy overlays in leather and suede. The sneaker’s lateral side is accented with a black Swoosh outlined in red, while the opposite side features a hand-drawn Swoosh and printed text that reads ‘First use June 18, 1971.’

Additional branding elements include a leather Nike tongue tag and Swoosh-shaped lace jewels in metallic gold.

Lightweight cushioning is provided by a Max Air unit that runs the length of the waffle-traction rubber outsole.

Push your style full speed ahead with the Nike Air Max 97. Inspired by the streamlined look of bullet trains, these easy-to-style kicks feature full-length Nike Air units for first-class comfort.
