The forthcoming pack takes things a step further than the legendary “Silver Bullet” iteration with two new “Metallic Gold” editions. The pack sees one version sporting “Metallic Silver/Metallic Gold-Black” as its partner sees “Vast Grey/Metallic Silver-Metallic Gold.” Both share white midsoles housing full-length Air Max units. Nike’s Swoosh logos return to their rightful place on each side in addition to the tongues. These arrive on November 23 at select Nike Sportswear and Nike.com retailers for $160 each. –HB
This Air Max 95 opts for a dark-tone base via black mesh and leather panels, as well as a black visible Air sole unit. All of this sets the stage for the multi-color paint stroke pattern, which appears along the wavy upper and at the insole, while paint splatter detailing throughout echoes the artistic theme. Final touches include gold-embroidered Nike branding, metallic gold lace tips and an embossed palm tree logo at the heel. –HB
The Nike Air Max 97 is back in a brand new colorway. Its striped upper sees metallic gold throughout with white added to the midsole.

The lateral and medial side’s small Swoosh logos are complemented by tiny jewels to spice things up just a bit. This women’s iterations is currently available at select Nike Sportswear retailers for $160. –HB

Other notable details include the hints of black along the sneaker’s rubber outsole and inner lining along the collar, as well as the red accents used for the mini Swoosh logos along the sides and on the tongue. –HB
Good news, American Air Max fans: after making its way to European retailers earlier this month, Nike’s “Metallic Gold” Air Max 97 is set to hit shelves at U.S. Nike Sportswear spots next month.

The Nike Air Max 97 “Metallic Gold” retro drops on May 18 for $160. –HB
