Product Description
Released as part of ‘The Ten’ collection from November 2017, Virgil Abloh’s take on the Air Max 97 focuses on the shoe’s upper. The retro runner’s translucent build serves to tone down the visual impact of its signature wavy lines, so that the eye is drawn to the overall shape instead.
The Off-White x Air Max 97 OG ‘The Ten’ is part of Virgil Abloh’s iconic collaboration with Nike, which reimagined ten of the brand’s most beloved sneakers. This particular model, the Air Max 97, is transformed under Abloh’s vision into a striking piece that blends high fashion with streetwear. The ‘The Ten’ collection is celebrated for deconstructing classic silhouettes and injecting them with a raw, industrial aesthetic that has reshaped sneaker culture.
Featuring a translucent upper that reveals the inner workings of the shoe, the Off-White x Air Max 97 OG ‘The Ten’ carries the signature details that define the collaboration. These include the bold printed “AIR” on the midsole, the small orange tab stitched next to the Swoosh, and the red zip-tie that has become synonymous with Off-White’s releases. The sneaker’s design is a study in the beauty of unfinished edges and exposed materials, which together create a compelling juxtaposition against the streamlined design of the original Air Max 97.
This sneaker is not just visually innovative; it’s also built for comfort. It retains the beloved full-length Air cushioning system that has made the Air Max 97 a staple both for its performance and style. The choice of a monochromatic color scheme, accented with hits of black and the silver Swoosh, enhances its versatility and ability to stand out in any sneaker collection.
The Off-White x Air Max 97 OG ‘The Ten’ is more than a sneaker; it’s a piece of art. It’s a testament to Virgil Abloh’s philosophy that design can exist somewhere between fashion and architectural form, making it a coveted item for collectors and fashion enthusiasts alike. This sneaker challenges and inspires, making it a must-have for anyone passionate about the future of sneaker design.
Add the Off-White x Air Max 97 OG ‘The Ten’ to your collection and step into a piece of contemporary fashion history, blending performance with pioneering aesthetics. Whether for its cultural significance or its distinctive style, this sneaker stands as a bold statement in the evolution of footwear.
