Having just dropped the Air Huarache ‘91 “Purple Punch,” Nike continues to build the family with the release of the Air Huarache Drift in OG “Purple Punch,” a modernized take on the classic 1991 silhouette.

This Huarache Drift keeps to the signature color scheme with a white, black and purple upper consisting of perforated leather at the toe box, black neoprene ankle and leather at the removable midfoot strap. A sculptural white midsole and lateral heel support caging round out the signature design, while a purple heel strap and outsole with “91” insignia pays homage to the OG theme.

The Nike Huarache Drift “Purple Punch” is available now for $140 USD at Nike’s web store. Let us know if you prefer this model to the original Air Huarache ‘91 silhouette and for more purple kicks, check out the Kobe 1 Proto “Final Seconds.”
