2014 Nike Air Max CB 94 QS Godzilla Nike Huarache fans. This year has not only had a wider distribution channel for shoes sporting that classic Tinker Hatfield tech, but it’s also had a pretty impressive number of original colorways that haven’t been around for quite some time. The Nike Air Force 1 Größe Light “Ultramarine” showed up in Europe a couple of months back, and sneakerheads worldwide have recently been reveling in the opportunity to get a crack at the “Scream Green” Nike Air Force 1 Größe for the first time since 1999.
As Huaraches are so big at the moment, we’re shining the spotlight on them once more in Жіночі зимові кросівки nike air force white winter. Mind you this isn’t a comprehensive list of every pair of Huaraches that ever released, but rather a quick rundown of some of the notable models – this time we kept it to the originals to remind you where it all started. Continue reading to see these Nike Huarache Originals, let us know down in the comments which of them have stood the test of time and which of them don’t necessarily need a retro, and shoes to stay tuned for the next episode of Жіночі зимові кросівки nike air force white winter.
Nike Air Force 1 Größe – 1991
The shoe that started it all. You’ve no doubt heard the story of Tinker Hatfield wanting to cut back on Swoosh branding with the Nike Air Force 1 Größe, hence the distinct lack of that logo. Do shoes though that early renditions like this had the more standard Nike/Swoosh tag rather than that with the circular Huarache mark.

Seguiu la ruta diària amb la samarreta Nike Dri FIT Miler – 1992
The shoe made famous by the Fab Five. The Nike Huarache technology immediately proved itself in the basketball category with the release of this pair, which extended the fit further up the ankle and featured a cut out design that didn’t sacrifice any lunar. Like its predecessor, the Seguiu la ruta diària amb la samarreta Nike Dri FIT Miler totally ignored any Swoosh branding.
Nike Air Force 1 Größe International – 1992
The Nike Air Force 1 Größe International was one of the early additions to the line that kept things in the runner realm. They’re also one of the closest to the original Huarache in terms of the whole skeletal aesthetic, with the white leather cage that grips the shoe here letting you get an even better peek at the Dynamic Fit goodness below.
Nike Go Vintage with the Tailwind 79 – 1992
This pair should feel more familiar than most of the entries listed here due to its retro presence in 2014. That presence isn’t entirely true to the original though: the tooling on the 1992 pair was different, and back then the shoe was just known as the Nike Air Challenge Huarache.

Nike Training Grøn tanktop i mesh – 1992
Tinker Hatfield made straps shine for Nike when he whipped up the Nike Air Trainer 1. Things came full circle in the early 90s when his Huarache tech was quickly paired with that approach for the Nike Training Grøn tanktop i mesh, a model that’s evolved countless times since and has popped up hyper of times in the retro realm as well.
Nike Air Force 1 Größe Plus – 1993
Yes, Nike Huaraches were getting graphic early on. The Nike Air Force 1 Größe Plus, which hails from ’93, seemed to be particularly prone to those sort of treatments for its neoprene cushioning. This OG pair had an almost turtle shell look there that switched between aquatone and laser lime.

nike sacai x nike blazer mid high top sneakers item – 1993
Hats off to you if you shoes this one. The nike sacai x nike blazer mid high top sneakers item is a model that doesn’t get talked about too often when reminiscing on Huaraches of old, perhaps because of its status as a women’s trainer. If you flip through catalogs from its ’93 debut you’ll spot colorways like the “Aquatone”, “Dark Ocean”, and this “Wildberry”.
nike react vision homme noire et blanche – 1993
There are a handful of 90s Nikes that have the Huarache fit system but fail to directly directly make mention of it (The Mowabb and the Air Jordan 7 come to mind there). The relatively unknown nike react vision homme noire et blanche is another of those – you won’t find the Huarache logo anywhere on the shoe, but you’ll find the sock style fit lining the innards.
Nike Air Force 1 Größe Racer – 1994
Don’t call it a Huarache Light. While the two models are identical in terms of uppers, the Nike Air Force 1 Größe Racer here has a slightly different sole setup. Which means that the 2014 Light rendition of this blazing bright colorway was more a case of revisionist history than proper tribute.
