The concept behind the design of the Nike Air Huarache was to fuse the functionality of South American-style sandals with the snug, supportive fit of neoprene water-ski booties. Following in the footsteps of the original’s design, the Air Huarache Premium 'Elemental Gold' sneaker features a leather and neoprene upper, reinforced by its lacing system and heel cage. The Dynamic Fit inner sleeve and Air-Sole unit cushioning complete the retro sneaker.
