Editor’s Notes: The NBA All-Star Weekend is coming up next weekend, so it's good that the Air Max 97 "All-Star Jersey" is already available to buy. The patriotic red, white, and blue colorway clearly draws inspiration from the 1991 All-Star jerseys.

The blue and red piping on the upper is reflective, and the branding on the tongue is removable velcro. Finally, the blue insoles have "1991" written on them.
