Long associated with Michigan’s Fab Five and popularized by Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard and company, the old Tinker Hatfield-designed Air Flight Huarache is making a comeback — with a twist. A modern day nod to the early ’90s original, Nike’s upcoming take on the kicks offers up a tweaked nod to the original white/black/purple/blue colorway and couples a neoprene bootie with the silhouette’s signature ankle wrap. The biggest changes come in the form of a mesh toe box and revamped sole unit while the OG Huarache logo now graces newly added lace locks.

Check out the revamped Air Flight Huarache above and stay tuned for release info.
