How soft/hard are the 97/TNs? As stiff as 95s? They look great (and still available); just wish they would lower the damn PSI on 95s, TNs, and 97s....They look so awesome, and all that air should simply be more cushy without having to be 250lbs....SMH...
Forgot how much I disliked what Nike did to that poor 2013 retro. Much like putting the wrong wheels on a car, apparently small changes--in that case the solid black outsole and the different silver finish--make a big difference. Not a great look on that version.
Some comparison pics. 2013 on left, 2017 on right.
Black jeans and t shirt or a crew neck sweatshirt. Not really hard to match it up.What are you guys gonna wear these with ?

I think they doHate to be that guy but I still haven't figured out the search feature...
How do the OW's fit? TTS?
Yeah...the newer air max retros are not very comfortable at all. Smaller air bubbles, can't feel the air.
Frankly the 97s are the worst, they feel like bricks but the nostalgia keeps me coming back. TNs are okay followed by 95s. I still find 90s to be the most comfortable retro.
Yeah that 14 is a impossible find, just throw in some nice cushioned insoles and they will fit better then great.I'm a true size 14 (narrow/average foot).
Nike made so few size 14s in the first batch of Silver Bullets that I bought a 15. They actually fit fine, except that due to the stiff midsole and extra space, my heel would pop out if they weren't laced tight.
So today I received my pair of Atlantic Blues from NDC, which I had bought just to try on a size 14. They actually fit completely 1:1, without my big toe touching the end of the shoe. They're completely wearable, more so than the size 15s...but for my preferences I think a 14.5 would have hit the spot. But life isn't always fair for big footers. The 97 is a similar beast (in terms of sizing) to the Foamposite and AM95.
Now I'm looking at SB size 14 resale and just getting mad
Any idea if they're gonna restock the metallic golds like the SB's or should I just suck it up and finally pay that resell?
that the 3m is worn off is not normal, more like an case of crappy qualtiy control from nikes side, imo they should be marked as B-grades and for the rest the shoes looks legit to meIs it normal? Are these legit?
Anyone with an in hand or on foot pic of the pumices? I tried searching the thread but couldn’t find any.
I feel ripped off, he swear they’re legit which they might be , but the 3m quality is terrible man. I would ship them back if he didn’t live way in South Koreathat the 3m is worn off is not normal, more like an case of crappy qualtiy control from nikes side, imo they should be marked as B-grades and for the rest the shoes looks legit to me
Ha! I went back 300 pages instead. Thanks.Go back one page.
Agree with you, I got the hybrid TN upper/97midsole and for some reason feel more cushy when walking compared to all my other 97 models. And I’m 165lbsI’m 210-220 lbs.
Air Max 95 is very hard. Heel no deflection. Harder than Air Jordan 4s
Air Max 97 is mediocre. Put weight on one heel, one side, it deflects .
But if I put weight flat on heel, there is deflection but not much.
97upper TN midsole hybrid, seemed to be softer.
Put weight on normal side heel, it compresses a lot. Look at that foam crease. GOOD.
Put weight on Tuned side heel, compresses like regular AM97.
Normal walking in 97TN, I feel tuned side does not compress. Other places compress 5%.
Nothing compresses and feel soft like Nike Zoom All Out. That feels coilsprings under you foot.
If given scores by softness
Zoom All Out softness is 90
97TN is 50
AM97 is 35
AM95 (2016) is 20 or less
The what?Still hoping to snag white Gucci 97s for a nice price -_-
