Upcoming Nike Air Max 97 Gets a “Safari” Makeover

Nike is getting wild with its upcoming Air Max 97. As the silhouette celebrates its 25th anniversary next year with the return of the “Atlantic Blue” and “Silver Bullet” colorways, we’re at the cusp of more noteworthy AM97 releases heading into 2022.

Before the year ends, the Swoosh is releasing an Air Max 97 coated in a “safari” print. While the “Safari” print is most known across atmos collaborations, this upcoming general release is one to keep an eye on. The forthcoming Nike Air Max 97 “Safari” is built with waxed-like molded material on its mudguard. The upper is dressed in the safari print that extends onto the insoles. The shoe also includes sail on the midsole, red details on the Nike Air branding, and has 3M hits on the laces.

The Nike Air Max 97 “Safari” releases before the end of 2021 for $170 on Nike.com and at select retailers. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
