holy fuck this man said “whitney houston” that’s celine dion bro not whitney houston 😂
Nathan Siehr hahaha
r mammadoff hhaha ayeeeee 🤷🏽♂️
Yea he purposely did that. Like mr Plinkett.
100 on purpose. Great work
Nah he fucked up. Whitney covered it once but he fucked up 😂😂😂
the 97s are really popular in the uk
dunno Yeah they are big over here in the US right now as well lol
Awais Ahmed yh sure chavs when the shoes are £120
Jack Gaffney its a roadman shoe
@ZenoVade _ nah bro cunts that hang out outside maccies getting into fights and just being insufferable failed-condoms in general. The people that wear these shoes have ruined their image, at least in the UK.
Jack Gaffney benefit money
Air jordan 1 - how a 34 year old shoe never became forgotten.
Ryder Wilson the AJ1 was forgotten for awhile man 🤷♂️
@@NachoAverageFinds when ?
when adidas releases yeezy i think
jojo eyy nahhh
jojo eyy yeezy is so much less durable than the Air Jordan tho 🤔
this shoes are used for everything but sports
At you point they was tho 🤷♂️
running away from police kinda counts
SeanCoopr hell yea 😭 it’s used for basketball and that
NachoAverageFinds I had a stroke reading that
kompla they are used for drip lol
Air maxes in general have always been massively popular in the UK. If you ask anyone what shoe they think of when they think on the UK, its probably TNs, 95s or 97s. I remember reading an article that showed the shoes worn by the most criminals in the UK in the mid 2000s were the air max 95 haha
Jamzy haha that’s so gangster!
Roadman creps 😂😂😂
yh its garage and grime which really made the shoes popular
@@lenny9837 Yes that is very true. Especially Dizzee Rascal with his boy in the corner album cover where he's wearing a pair of air max BWs
Same in aus bra
Since when was the 97 ever uncool?
Not uncool just forgotten at some point
Leon Witherow never. This dude simply didn’t have anything worthy of a video
Candle Ankle haha big hater 🙅♂️
NachoAverageFinds true
@@candleankle1805 tf u talking bout
Who else didn’t even know airmax 96’s existed 😂
Yeah
No lie I first them on Rachel from Friends she had on the Nike Air Max 96 Black/Purple Color which tbh was HARD FUCK to FIND FOR ME when they rereleased them in 2016....The Scream Green are the ones I need. If you want check out the Nike Air Max 96 XX White/Teal n White/Navy very comfortable shoe....It was Dad shoe way ahead of its time.....
Fax
Or 98
Now im wondering whether 91,92,93,94 and 99's exist
97, 95, AF1low and AM90 are all the sneakers you need.
Jimmybimmy essentials
And the Aj1
i got 3 out of 4
including the Tn's u just listed every criminals fav shoe in Europe
Lowkey got the essentials lol
It’s kind of refreshing to see a channel like yours. An essay channel, but not without personality and on a topic that I thoroughly enjoy. Keep up the good work.
Noah Cider 😂😂😂 I thought they liked TNs
Another banger. Your editing is CRAZY
B Spen thanks man alot of effort goes into these videos
I never stop purchasing the Nike air max 97, they never went out of style to me. I was purchasing them back then and I’m still purchasing them now I love the 97 classic. The most comfortable shoe to me
Money Mon That’s cause you a fly dude! Lol I need to build up a little 97 collection myself tho. Thanks for watching!
O
"Would you pay 225 for sneakers?" Well actually I just bought some for $290 so guess who's the clown
Jaydan damn that’s pricey
@@NachoAverageFinds Kinda, depending where you live.
@@kaiserwachs and your income also
@Lelani De Silva aye lemme guess what you bought. Vapor max plus
Lelani De Silva yeah uhm... meanwhile in switzerland 17 year olds walk with christian louboutin 🤠
These videos are the best on CZcams! Please post more of these mini docs they're sick, you deserve way more subs/views. Much love from the UK brother. Keep it up.
Jack Cunliffe Thanks Jack! I feel the love all the way from the UK!! Appreciate you watching 💪

I love these videos so much, you’re one of my favorite channels right now. Keeps up the good work!
Speak with Peace thanks for watching please share tell your friends 😎
I'm really liking all your sneaker vids so far, it's so informative and now I know some history behind some of the brands and sneakers out in the market. Thank you and keep making these vids! :)
When I said I was gonna get these in 2016 everyone laughed at me
Same
Well who's laughing now?

1997 was over 20 years ago???? Nooooooo 😥
Know It 2 Flip It haha We gettin old!
@@NachoAverageFinds around the time you were listening to Whitney Houston's song from the Titanic starting Joaquin Phoenix?
Amazing work nacho! These vids are the best.
Dario Rolle thanks 🙏 appreciate you watching as always

Toren Reaves Appreciate you taking the time to watching them Toren!! Cheers 💪
Love this ‘history of sneaks’ series. Great work. 👌
Bad ass content bro! I just copped the Air Max 97 Swarovski gold bullets
Erick Godinez those are pretty dope
I got some 97 essentials and they’re honestly my favourite shoe
1k subscribers? Plz subscribe I love em
1k subscribers? Plz subscribe i got the reflective se
I’m sure the essentials were made specifically for JD sports brand (foot asylum etc) I never copped them coz JD always get cheap low quality versions made my OG triple blacks looks soooo clean and high quality next to a triple black SE versions.
Dope! Love your videos man. Informative and well put together.
Bro, love your channel and the awesome video essay documentaries you're putting out. Great story telling, making me really appreciate all my trainers (I'm from the UK lol)
This is my favorite air max and it never went out of style
ques1134 One of my favorites too! Thanks for watching
I wonder how the 97 hold up in popularity vs other models. It seems like everyone has a favorite. Right now the 270 and 720s seem to be everywhere where I live. Something about these classic silhouettes keeps people to copping the retros and putting them into rotation. Great content.
Brian Johnson the 270s and 720s just feel to high for me at the heel
The 95’s-98’s are my high school era so that pocket of time will be my favorite lines of shoe. But I do like the future of the shoe game so I do like the new 720 line. I’m not a fan of the 270 but a lot of people are. But low key the 270 are at Ross all the time and those are the shoes that go on sale in the outlets first.
@@NachoAverageFindsNow the Pulses look and feel much better than the 270s!
@@NachoAverageFinds Thank goodness for the AM Pulses, that high heel Air unit on the 270s and 720s are WAY too high for me! Plus, the Pulses look cooler and feel like an updated 90.
Great job interacting with the comments. Makes it feel like you care about the community and actually see what they say.
Hispanic Baljeet Of course man, I never understood CZcamsrs who don’t respond to their comments haha you guys are the only reason we do this. Thank you 🙏
Just bought a pair today to add to my collection. Love the water flow aesthetics of them.
I had the first edition as a kid back in 97, for me still the best edition, the silver colorway was super smooth kinda greyish, the mesh where the swoosh is was made of metal and I really loved the PSI imprints in the sole. It is hard to say but after 2000 the Airmax 97 become more cheap regarding the actually quality of the shoe and more expensive in the price. I always miss the little details from the early versions.
love this so much. 97 is my favorite air max model for sure. I have a few including the golden bullets, wotherspoons, and lasode's (underrated from the on air collection). thanks Nacho!!!!
lebaneseblonde09 glad you enjoyed it man tell your friends bout this video trying to hit a million 😎😎
Aye man. Your videos are cool as hell. I'm a brand new Nike employee and it is so interesting to watch your stuff and use this information in a process of work
Love the historic vids bro I shared on my instagram about your videos
ZT SPORTS Highly appreciate that man 🙏🙏
1997 was so long ago that you mixed Whitney and Celine
Harry Kenyon yea I mentioned it in lil text in the picture 😂😂
Oops missed it
Is it just me or are the air max 98 hella underrated?!
Joshua Agha 98s are often over looked
Na they are ugly compared to 97’s or 95’s imo.
98s are nice but only in certain colour ways, the rest are all straight boof
I just bought the 98 premium
Joshua Agha yeah its just you
Good lord, the documentaries u produce on this channel are super class,🖒🖒🖒🖒 great analyses as always.
PASCAL SANYI thanks man glad you enjoy tell your friends Share
Love these viedios and like how ya describe the history of classic Sneakers,keep making epic viedios
I have got a pair of 97s, I paid 180$(18700 rsd) for them but they cost 220$(23400 rsd). These shoes are very popular in my country(Serbia), maybe even the most popular air max in Serbia.

I was looking for the SIlver Bullets for years, I stumbled on the last pair available at Foot Locker in Toronto, so I bought it without trying it on. Had to sell it because it was way too tight. Size up on these bad boys lol
Parsa Massir yea they narrow AF I size up as well
Hello, sir, thank you for awesome content. I really loved it. Can you do a version for Nike Air Max 90? I really love Nike Air Max 90. Its my all time favourite sneaker.

Same as tns
Yes the AIR MAX 97's are so phat that Jayson Tatum Made These His Personal Sneaker!
haha Dope
I love your voice homie, very soothing and goes well with your video 📹 🤗
Stephennn Jj nicest comment Ever 😎
Got the Silver bullet's brand new in the box three weeks ago. It was in my bucket list as I could never afford them although being in love with'em since 1997 when I was a kid. Now I don't dare to wear them and start walking...they're SO beautiful.
It’s always been cool. This design is timeless. It’s just gotten popular. I think that it just recently got re released or something like that cause fuck trends, it’s a always been a cool design and always will be.
Jorge Torres Agreed! Thanks for watching Jorge
Might have become trendier in other areas, but they were always a cult hit in the sneaker community and never stopped being a common sight on British Streets
Blessed to discover this channel 👏
Fax bro the Qs’s are fire
Would definitely buy these. Such a shame I can’t afford it lol or I’d have it right now
Faista soon enough
Triple black 97s are straight fire
Jay Mazyopa Fuck yeah!
This is literally my favorite style of Air Max .. and this video dropped on my birthday so this is lit ..
Praize Not Praise Thanks for watching ❤️
love these videos so much. Im getting myself a pair of silverbullets
Carlie OB yeee enjoy!!
Nike air max bw classic r the best 👌😍
Dope kicks!
While I’m not a super big fan of most 97 color ways, the actual shoe is probably my favorite airmax model
T-Pose Kek Why are they too shiny and futuristic with the colorways? Lol I understand
NachoAverageFinds yeah the metallic ones aren’t my thing, and some don’t have the greatest color blocking. Ones like the Neon Seoul’s are absolutely sick though
T-Pose Kek Yeah those are super dope
I bought a pair earlier this year. I’m waiting on my second pair to be delivered this week. I get compliments every time I wear the “Atmosphere Grey/Habanero Red” pair.
Amazing video I love 97s a staple in my collection
For a fashion trainer: Air Force 1’s can’t be beat 😁
Mike W I agree bro
AF1 are one of the cleanest trainers. But the creasing kills me, i got some fly knit AF1s that don’t crease man and they are one of the best trainers I ever owned.
The hardest air max model
Jordan Temple One of my favorites too 😎 Thanks for watching g 🙏
Jordan Temple nah tns are better
Great video, it’s sometimes good to know the history of a shoe that I wear plus so many others
I just copped a pair of Spirit Teal 97's and made a custom pair on the nike website that's honey themed. I didn't even realize the 97' meant the year, these are so fresh I just had no idea they were more than maybe 5 years old. Love the video
95's are little bit more popular than 97 in Serbia :D
маткее I like the 95s but they heavy
In Montenegro 97 is more popular,kinda interesting
a little bit 95 way more popular
The silver bullet colourway actually wasn't inspired by bullet trains but by a bike he owned.
Logan Hallahan 🤔🤔🤔🤔 I’m have to look that up Tresser and his sister actually watched the video they enjoyed it 😎
I just received my 1st pair of 97s today, my senior year in high school was 98 so these take me back to the good old days 👍👍👍
Def subbing this video was straight fire
Thank you man. I appreciate it
In my school you only see vans,97,90,vapormax2019,vapormax flynit, vapormax plus
No af1s?
1:13 wtf thats my school in the background
