The Air Max 97 F/W, released in the fall of 1997, originally retailed for 18,000 yen + tax. This model featured a full-length visible Air unit, a first for the series. The upper was inspired by Japan's bullet trains, incorporating a streamlined design for a running shoe. This particular pair features a colorway not found in the original release, with a simple design using black synthetic leather and mesh. Japanese retail price was 19,440 yen. While wearable, there is a crack on the left shoe's opening.
