The Original “Hyper Grape” Hits The Nike Air Huarache

Now in its fourth decade of running, the Air Huarache has been sprinkled onto store shelves in sporadic manner, with a random cadence of new colorways and OG models. Part of the latter category is the “Hyper Grape”, an original style from 1991.

Earlier this year, you might’ve seen a similar Air Huarache colorway hit shelves. That pair, however, was a slightly modernized iteration as it featured the Huarache coin logo on the tongue. These stick to the traditional square patch on the tongue, ensuring a truer OG bringback attempt.

Currently, a release date is scheduled for August 23rd, 2022 with an MSRP of $125, but seeing how many of Nike Sportswear’s in-line models have been getting the delay treatment, these could very well be postponed to a later date. For now, get re-acquainted with this cherished OG colorway via the official images below and stay tuned for updates.
