Sneaker News Juwan Howard deserves a lot of credit for helping Nike popularize the low-hanging shorts and the Air Flight Huarache basketball shoe. As one of the members of the scintillating Fab Five, Juwan and his teammates took the college basketball world by storm, bringing style, flair, and youth to the college hoops landscape, a contrast with the button-up attitude brought on by programs like Duke. Their influence was not held down by the fact that they never brought home a championship during their heyday, although they do act as an example of unrealized potential in the history of the game.
After his playing career, Juwan Howard returned to Michigan as head coach of the men’s basketball team, although his future with the program may be in jeopardy after the physical altercation with Wisconsin assistant Joe Krabbenhoft. For now, Howard has been suspended for the rest of the regular season, which means there will be no shot of seeing him in this new Air Huarache “Michigan”. The school is, after all, in partnership with Jordan Brand, but it would’ve been a neat nod to the past if Howard decided to give these a go.
The Air Huarache “Michigan” is set to release at Nike retailers soon for $120. In other Nike news, check out the Doernbecher eBay auctions.
