In 2018, Nike re-released the Nike Air Max 97 Ultra 17 in a striking 'Regency Purple' colorway. This updated version of the iconic runner showcases a lighter upper and sole, accompanied by newly designed wavy tracks that are taped, providing a fresh take on the classic embroidery. The shoe also boasts red Swoosh branding on both the lateral and medial sides, adding a bold touch to the vibrant purple hue. Furthermore, the Air Max unit spans the full length of the shoe and features a striking red accent on the interior.
