Jovani Hernandez The Nike Air Huarache first released in 1991 as a performance-running proposition. Its design, however, also informed those of the brand’s trail-ready and basketball footwear of the time. Recently, Tinker Hatfield’s creation has indulged in a vibrant color palette and other details ostensibly rooted in Hike Nike heritage.
Before the Swoosh formally began Nike ACG, it offered bold-accented boots under the Hike Nike banner. To contrast the sea of brown and black that dominated the retail walls of outfitters for the great outdoors, Nike added eye-catching purple, green, red and yellows to their tried-and-proven offerings. Many of these tones appear on the upcoming Nike Huarache, with suede, neoprene and mesh construction sharing a bold mix of hues. Black contrast arrives across the pair’s profile overlays, which are accompanied by a “NIKE”-branded tab on the lateral side, a direct nod to trail-ready propositions of yesteryear. Elsewhere, a speed-lacing system and chenille logo appear on the tongue. Sole units round out the makeup with an off-white midsole and light gum brown outsole combination.
Official Nike SNKRS launch details haven’t been disclosed, but that’s likely to change soon. In any case, enjoy images of the pair ahead.
