FAQs
What makes the Stüssy collaboration special?
This model is a re-issue of a highly sought-after collaboration from the year 2000, originally released exclusively through Stüssy stores. Its reappearance in 2021 celebrated the enduring partnership between the two brands.
How does the Nike Air cushioning work?
Encapsulated Nike Air units are integrated into the foam midsole, specifically in the heel. These units compress upon impact, providing responsive cushioning and shock absorption.
Is the fit true to size?
Generally, Nike Air Huarache models fit true to size. However, due to the unique internal bootie construction and heel strap, some users may prefer to go up half a size for a slightly looser fit.
How should I clean the textile upper?
Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of mild soap and water with a damp cloth, gently scrub, and then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
What is the main difference between this and other Huarache models?
The primary difference lies in the co-branding and the specific 'Dark Olive' colorway, inspired by the original Stüssy collaboration, featuring unique material combinations and design elements.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the shoes offer some protection, they are not waterproof. The nubuck material can be sensitive to excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a water-repellent spray.
What does 'LE' in some model names refer to?
'LE' typically stands for 'Limited Edition', indicating that the product was released in smaller quantities or through exclusive channels, as was the case with the original Stüssy Huarache release.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with ones that offer better grip.
Slight discomfort on first wear
The Huarache fit system may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Nubuck material appears dull or stained
Use a suede/nubuck eraser to gently remove marks. Follow up with a nubuck brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner.
