For a while they sat on shelves and Nike eventually halted production on the model and shifted budget elsewhere. The silhouette had actually garnered a new and slightly-bad reputation according to many, with the legendary status tarnished by how mainstream they had become.

The iconic Nike Air Huarache is slowly but surely making a comeback because the shoe is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year and, coincidently, colorful, layered shoes are currently all the rage.

For me, the Nike Air Huarache fits half a size up. With a narrow-than-usual profile, if you were to go true to size these would be too small. A full size up and the neoprene upper will be much too loose, resulting in a weird dented look that we really don't love to see.
