Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Max 97 'Triple White' trainers are designed for adult women seeking a stylish and comfortable everyday sneaker. Their key benefit lies in the iconic ripple design combined with full-length Nike Air cushioning for a smooth, responsive feel. A potential consideration is their 'low-top' profile which may offer less ankle support for some activities. This guide covers their eco-conscious construction, versatile design, and practical use.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Air Max 97 features cushioning inspired by performance running shoes, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear and comfort, rather than dedicated high-performance running.
How do I clean the white mesh and leather?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Gently clean the affected areas and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.
What does 'Next Nature' signify?
'Next Nature' signifies that the shoe is made with sustainable materials, incorporating recycled content as part of Nike's commitment to environmental responsibility.
Do the reflective details actually work?
Yes, the 3M reflective detailing is designed to catch light and reflect it back, increasing visibility in low-light conditions, such as during evening activities.
What is the fit like for the Nike Air Max 97?
The Air Max 97 generally fits true to size. However, personal preference for tightness can vary, so adjusting lacing is recommended. A break-in period might be needed for optimal comfort.
Can these be worn in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Extended exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and potential water damage. It is best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.
What is the difference between this and older Air Max 97 models?
The 'Next Nature' versions, like this one, specifically emphasize sustainable construction using recycled materials, often indicated by the pinwheel logo on the insole. Core design and cushioning technology remain similar to the original.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to the air unit. Try loosening the laces slightly, or if it persists, consult a retailer for potential manufacturing defects.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure the laces are tied correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break-in periods may be necessary for new shoes. Trying different sock thicknesses can also help.
Color transfer from socks or to socks
This is more common with new, darker footwear or certain sock materials. Wash new socks separately for the first few wears. If the shoe is transferring color excessively, it might be a manufacturing issue.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
The Air cushioning is designed for durability, but its responsiveness can decrease with extensive wear. Consider rotating with other footwear for longevity.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and leather components, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean away dirt. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
