These were an early Christmas present for my husband. He isn't typically a fan of Air Max because he says he doesn't like how they look in him but he has always wanted this particular pair. He is a shoe fanatic and has to make sure he has at least 1 outfit for every pair of shoes. He was all smiles when he opened these and tried them on and I assured him they definitely looked good on him. I was excited knowing I could gift him a pair of shoes he always wanted and that Finish Line had them on sale.

Absolutely beautiful! I am a huge Air Max person so I knew what I was getting into but I’ve never owned a pair of 95’s. Obviously these are going to be tough to keep clean but I only wear them occasionally. You can’t go wrong with the white on white on white! They match everything!

In 2003, my husband broke both feet in a work accident. He underwent 7 major reconstructive surgeries over approximately 2 years. Today his feet have a great deal of metal holding them together, along with much calcification. They tried him in many different shoes and orthidics. Finally, he tried these shoes on and his feet felt a comfort he hadn't felt in many years. Now these are the only shows he will wear. They give him support and a cushion under his heels that had been crushed beyond repair. He refuses to wear any other shoe. They told him he would never walk well again. But, in these shoes hes comfortable and they help him feel very little pain.

Definitely get half a size up, I normally wear a size 10 in every Nike shoe but I went up to 10.5 for this pair. Love the all black with the red stripe surrounding the shoe. The hint of color really make it POP and eye catching. Comfort is great & can definitely be worn all day or for anything else the day throws at you. Definitely recommend & hope Niske keeps this color way for a long time. My new go-to pair of shoes.
First and foremost I ordered from the Nike App, my order came in fast and packaging was on point. This was my first time getting the 97’s, I’ve been wanting to get them for a long time but wasn’t sure on what size to get since my foot is on the wider side. I’m glad Nike put a notice on their size and fit description in which they state they run small and to order half a size up which I did, only thing is that the left sneaker fits a tad looser than the right one which is a first for me with any Nike sneakers, I don’t know if it’s the shoe itself or one foot is bigger than the other. I checked the sizing on both of the shoes and they were both correct. I do love the silhouette of the 97’s, I wore them with shorts and they look great on me. They will be my go to ...

They will be my go to sneakers this summer. For my wide footed ppl out there I recommend to go half a size up.
Superb comfort. Great style, feels like quality on your feet. 3 pairs later.. one of my all time favorites for style + comfort.All 3 have had great build quality.Sizing is same as other Nikes atleast for my feet.A testament to the shoe is how long it’s been around and people (like me) still love them!
Great purchase! These Blue Nebula Air Max 97s are so fly. I'm a new 97s lover and the color captured my eyes. The hint of Wolf Grey was a nice touch. They're very comfortable and stylish. You can dress them up or down, they literally look great no matter how you style them. I'm a woman who's 5'8 and wears a 9.5 in men's, these were a perfect fit.
I was looking for an all black air max 97. Unfortunately, the 97 didn't come in all black for mens. I was going to color the nike swoosh as a work around until I saw the other side of the shoe. The pictures on the website don't show the other side of the shoe has a velour section, which makes the shoe hideous. I quickly returned the shoes.
The shoes came defective and ripped the very first day that my son wore them. Looking into replacing or returning these shoes. So disappointed, waited weeks for them and the quality was so poor. I have a lot of these shoes and have had them for many years, so upset with the quality on these ones. There is a lot of glue in random spots and the sole was dirty when they arrived.
Absolutely one of the best shoes of I've ever worn. I have a wide foot, so I had to size up a full size, as these do run narrow; however, I would recommend you try on in store first, if possible. Once you get the size right, you'll see these shoes have been around since '97 for a reason. This model is so easy to wear with jeans or shorts, and the colorway is perfect for a minimal look that still hits. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
