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.

I find as a general rule that the Nike Air Huaraches fit a little tight. Due to the neoprene sock liner I would always take . 5 of a size up from my usual Nike size, otherwise they can be a struggle to get on and your toes can feel like they're about to pop out the end.
