Official Air Max 97 Thread

[dziub]

hi everyone, Im playing a lot with the NBY last days
I ordered this one:

I hope the constrast between sea glass and coriander will be enough sufficient.

Also, Im debating between this 3, I want one in canvas, if you have an advice for me

And another variation of the SWs via reddit



I like how they went with the monotone midsole/air unit/outsole.

I've got two designs scheduled for a delivery tomorrow!

Order placed on 5/24 shipped out this morning. Not a bad turnaround.

Timberwolf AKA THANK YOU, Minnesota, for Steph and Wiggs!

Not sure if you all see it too, but the embroidered triangles create an optical illusion making the Canvas appear like trees. The Mesa Orange represents the stumps of the trees, and Court Blue Suede represent a river that "flows" through.

The Hasta laces matches the Green Stone Canvas perfectly!

Rev SWs were delayed for tomorrow. :/

Champion socks are such an eye soar.

Lol they're comfy to me and thats what matters most.

 

[Ewing206]

How comfy can they be compared to any other sock. You don't see how those socks look foolishly out of place?

It's all love but let's be real.

I honestly don't but it's cool thanks.

I'm waiting on these to release. They look dope, I just wish the sockliner wasn't white.

 

[rafbuddy]

They need to retro the silver surfers

 

[zombiejohnny]

Did these release yet? Another pair I been keeping a close eye on.

 

[nice jahb]

Came across some more well done IDs/NBY on Instagram. Really looks like some of the blue suedes got better than the first batch out.

If so, for the Upper/Tongue/Tongue Overlay, yessir!


Of my three AM97 Unlocked NBYs, my favorite is the Timberwolf design.

Got these in today. Went with an all suede upper. The “suede” is super ashy and has a serious powdered donut effect to it. Makes the shoe look OD faded. It doesn’t necessarily show up in pics but it’s very noticeable up close. Completely threw me off when I took them out of the box. Not exactly what I was expecting from my mock-up and not sure how I feel about them yet. May return honestly idk but they’re kinda growing on me as I continue to look at them. What y’all think?

I personally think they are dope. I enjoy the faded/ashy look and the swoosh is a nice pop, but i understand that its different from the mock up.

No shade towards anyone, but all of these NBY just look the same to me. I think it has to do with the color options. None of the colors pop enough to really differentiate between them.
