Nike Air Huarache Trainer: Black/Cool Blue 2/5/15, PRM Medicine Balls out now

Does anyone plan to workout out in these? The next time I hit the gym I am going to give these a whirl. I'm curious to see how long they will last if they become my workout shoes.
 
I doubt they'll last very long... Nike sportswear aren't meant for performance sneakers. They might be OK, just not as good as other nike performance based shoes.

my pair from fa just came in and it's a little creased. not too concerned about that. what really bothers me are the colors. they are so blatantly off from the og that as i suspected it's like it's not the same shoe i remember. the berry and (especially) the green should be darker. oh well, they'll remain on ice til summer.

The purple is what bothers me. It's almost pink.

Gotta disagree. I think they'll hold up well for the guy. Just got mine in today and unless you are blind you can see that they used a premium genuine leather on these which I know for a fact will hold up better than most retros today. I was blown away by the quality of the leather. Make me ask why Nike can't always use this on retros. Also it's crazy to see some say they came somewhat pre creased. Thats fine because what good leather is supposed to do. Be happy.
 
Just came home to my pair. Pretty impressed overall, Nike did a decent job on these. Only thing that bothers me is the midsole on the medial side, why didn't they paint that white?

Are sneakers dubbed sportswear because they have older technology or because Nike decides to manufacture them in an inferior manner? Put another way, if there was a way to sell this retro version of the shoe at the same time as when the shoe first released in 91-92 would people notice a difference between the shoes?
 
Sportswear seems to be the division of products that cater to the retro and lifestyle shoes.
 
Nice pic with the Raiders pair bro, can't wait to get those again. ^
UnDS'd mine today

that green is a familiar looking color from another 90's shoe. i think it was some dieons or some other model huaraches.

i don't recall remembering those clause huaraches but i had some other nike shoes in that type green color.

the shoe was just retro the other day.......i know what shoe ur thinking about I juss forgot the name.....its lace less either the name is carnivore or unlimited....
 
Is that a new pair or old pair? I'm guessing old because of the box.
 

Looks to be a pair of Nike Air Wildwood ACG LE Neon (Air Max 95 Inspired)

Please don't just go around throwing questions like these into random threads though.

I ended up returning my pair and picking up a size down. Much better fit for me.

Wore them today:

You can see how the collar is creased on my pair, but I'm going to try to iron it flat. Might try to paint the midsole with the right color blocking eventually. Overall I'm very happy with my pair.

Only reason I haven't rushed out to grab these yet :pimp:

Hell, I think I saw the Flight Huaraches still floating around too. Love having a local backup option in case those discounts never come online.
