The upper is constructed from a combination of mesh for breathability and leather for durability and structure.

The Nike Air Max 97 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While comfortable for walking, they are not intended for high-performance running activities.
What does the 'Pine Green' refer to?
Pine Green refers to the specific accent color used on elements such as the Nike Swoosh, sock liner, and pull tabs, contrasting with the predominantly white upper.
How does the sizing run for the Nike Air Max 97?
Generally, the Nike Air Max 97 fits true to size. However, it is always recommended to try them on or consult a size chart if purchasing online.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the lacing system by re-threading the laces through the eyelets until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed.
Discomfort in the arch area
The Air Max 97 has a distinct shape; if discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for added arch support or consulting a footwear specialist.
White areas show dirt easily
Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. For more significant dirt, use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution, and ensure to clean them after each wear if possible.
Squeaking sound from the sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry. If the sound persists, it might be a minor manufacturing anomaly and usually does not affect performance.
