These Are the Sneakers EVERY Influencer Is Wearing Right Now

by Elinor Block

There are a few trainers you'll always keep in your wardrobe. Converse is just one brand we can't ever see going out of fashion. But there's a particular trainer style that's made a surprising comeback and could make its mark the same way the classic high-tops have done. The sneakers I'm talking about are the Nike Air Max 97s.

Originally created in 1987, Nike Air Maxes were a product of Nike's air cushioning technology. While there were many iterations before the '90s, it was the 97 versions that took off and is now having a resurgence. Want to see what we're talking about and how to style yours? Keep scrolling to see how influencers are wearing theirs.
