Official Air Max 97 Thread

[Mr.Guy]

Are the Gold ones loud?

I asked my friend about my SB VM97 today and he said it’s not flashy at all.

Material is not good as it creases where it’s not supposed to crease, but everything else is A1.

Not really. I rock them with Black and non loud colors. Yea mines are creasing a lil, but I dont care because Im beating them. Plus I have two pairs of og 97 golds on ice.

he’s saying that’s he’s envious homie gets his pairs for free from Nike

oh hahaha

fruits of their labor, I know exactly what these pro athletes go through to get to that level....so there's no jealousy or envy from me

 

[cardiak]

Blasphemy

Not at all. I mess with the Cones tho but the patch on the toe box and medial part of the shoe kind of ruins it.

Of all the 98 colorways, you pick the Cones as the best one

Out of all that text, you didn't understand any of it. Never said that was the best colorway. I said that I mess with them. I like details and different materials used.

Rockets lost, but VM97 is still intoxicating to look at.....

Guys say it to your lady in case they are QS/NRG not a GR

If anyone needs an oop on Women's Golds size 9 (Mens 7.5) for retail, hit my pm

thought i could get away with my TTS, but looks like im gonna have to go a half size down. Luckily size 7 seems to be readily available, if anyone needs an oop below retail for a womens 9 and mens 7.5, i can assist.

also, if anyone wouldn't mind pointing out what i should be looking for when legit checking AM97's would be greatly appreciated for peace of mind.

Bid accepted for $578 on StockX for a pair of wotherspoon's

Most I've ever paid for a shoe by far, but haven't wanted a shoe this much in years.

Different but I dig it. Tried to capture in a few diff lights.

I love these. Can’t wait for my pair to be delivered.

I thought about those, but ultimately the patent leather turned me off.

You barely notice the patent honestly. I own like 8-9 pairs of 97s including a pair of ultras and vapormax 97 and that 97 plus model is by far the most comfortable. And the orange/red pops so much in person

I was a touch hesitant but I’ll happily beat the hell out of these

 

[doxen5703]

Yeah for sure grabbing these on discount now. Good pics bigevan23

Here’s my pic that I posted in the Air Max Plus thread

 

[tigo0240]

Is it the regular, hard poly midsole or phylon?

 

[dragicon]

What's the sizing like in those plus hybrids? OG or Ultra build sizing?

They were TTS for me when I tried them on. Didn’t have to half size up like my 97s.

 

[Upptempo]

Is it the regular, hard poly midsole or phylon?

I’m pretty sure it’s phlyon. The air bubble also seems a little bigger than most 97s. And it comes in a pull out black nike QS box which only came with my Undefeated 97s that were phylon

 

[modzzilla]

These rock.

2nd day wearing SB Vapormax 97.
These things are just plain awesome.
Now I need a camera to shoot good pictures of these.

97/Plus isn’t as good as Vapormax 97 IMO

 

[sthebest]

Well i offed my Numbered Homage to Homes, which left me with enough money to finally get a pair of Wotherspoons with a little cash left over. I won a DS pair on eBay for $568 shipped
