During 2023’s Nike Huarache Runner launch, sneakerheads get a chance to try out a new model and colorway. Inspired by the original Air Huarache, this iteration features various material changes to give it a unique look. In place of the traditional neoprene base layer, the shoe has a mesh upper with Huarache tongue badges, heel counters, and overlays.

The inaugural colorway, known as ‘Light Smoke’ showcases solid cages in black and grey tones, purple tongue accents, and gum outsole. Small Swoosh logos are visible on the quarter panel windows and the edges of the toe boxes.
