Nike Men's Modern Running Shoes - Lightweight Comfortable Athletic Sneakers for Jogging, Gym Workouts & Daily Wear

The Nike Air Max 97 “Puerto Rico” is a special makeup of the performance running shoe that honors Puerto Rican culture. Released by Nike just ahead of the National Puerto Rican Day Parade held in New York City in June 2021, the “Puerto Rican” edition of the Air Max 97 mimics the styling of the model’s iconic original colorway, the “Silver Bullet.” Like the “Silver Bullet,” the “Puerto Rico” has metallic silver reflective leather panels layered over a tonal mesh base on the upper. Nike adds the Puerto Rican flag to the pull tab on the tongue and places an embroidered red Swoosh on either side above the white foam midsole. An additional red Swoosh appears on the navy blue overlay on the top of the metallic silver mesh tongue. Silver “Air Max” branding can be found on the back of the shoe. The full-length visible Air cushioning system within the white foam midsole is consistent with the original design of the Air Max 97. A small Puerto Rican flag appears on a silver bubble on the outsole. Release date: June 5, 2021
