Nike Air Max 97 Next Nature Triple Black DH8016-002

Nike's "Next Nature" line, including the Nike Air Max 97 Next Nature Triple Black, has frequently featured basic, traditional colourways to hide their environmentally friendly materials effectively. Despite incorporating a circular design logo, these items are practically undetectable from their non-recycled predecessors due to their simplicity. The Triple Black Air Max 97 is a part of that line and also features a basic full black colourway. Seemingly, the idea is to cast recyclables in a favourable light by employing an aesthetic that effectively masks their real-world makeup. Despite the introduction of a circular design logo, these items are nearly indistinguishable from their non-recycled predecessors. The main difference here is the use of recycled materials in the upper, which causes the shoe to glow brightly when exposed to ultraviolet light. This makes the shoes more visible in the dark and makes them easier to recycle.

The company will likely gradually phase out these more harmful goods as it expands its Next Nature collection. The Nike Air Max 97 is one of the newest to take up arms, equipped with protective reinforcements here in the perennially popular "Triple Black" colour scheme. Save for the see-through floor on the midfoot, which is visible here and there, everything from top to bottom is covered in darkness; even the logo, such as the embroidered Swooshes, circular design logo, and so on., are practically unnoticeable against their matching backdrops. With the emerging popularity of the Air Max 97 gang, curious minds may want to know its history! We get you, sneakerheads, just like how we get your taste in sneakers.
