Nike Huarache Light Thread 2015/2016

[nothingbutnike]

I could not find a thread dedicated to the Huarache Light, so I decided to create this one. I was glad to see these retroed last year and am pleased to see more cws lined up for 2015. Would be nice to see the Burst make an appearance this year. There's been some good releases so far, here's a few to look out for in 2015.

Feel free to add your input here, would be great to hear from other members.

Props to McSoundwave for the heads up.

Are these TTS or go 1/2 up?

 

[nothingbutnike]

Lights fit TTS in my opinion. I wouldn't recommend sizing up. They have a nice snug fit without being uncomfortable, the round toebox doesn't squash your toes. Just got the 2014 Ultramarines this morning, will post some pics soon.

Got hold of the Ultramarines, they looking fly. Here they are alongside the Mowabbs.

Nice!

Have been askin to myself whether it's the time to pull the trigger on some of these the past several days.

The Lights have been slept on. Most people have been focused on the LEs. I like the iconic cws, the Ultramarines are special to me.

I've always found them to be too snug in the forefoot and toe area. I don't have a particularly wide foot, but of the several Lights I've had in the past, with my true size, they always seem to start constricting after wearing them for a bit.

I think these are one of those shoe you just have to try on with the regular socks you wear to get a comfortable fit.

I'm feeling the black/gum pair(have they released yet?) may have to size up a half size to see if they fit better for me if I can get my hands on them.

 

[nothingbutnike]

True, probably best to try on to find your ideal size. I prefer the snug fit, when I tried a bigger size they looked too bulky on feet.
The Black/Gum pair has not been released yet, they're very nice though. Such a clean cw.

 

[paidingumm]

any word on the release date for the black/gum colorway?

 

[nothingbutnike]

Not yet bruh.

 

[johngotty]

I tried sizing up and it just didn't work. The arch was hitting the wrong spot on my foot, there was a bit of slippage and made them tough to wear. I'd say TTS like others have mentioned. The snug fit works better.

Hey there! I went ahead stayed TTS with the huarache lights and they fit perfect , was worried at first. Like you all have said they are snug but not to the point where it hurts ur toes thanks for the help def looking to cop more! I ordered the size? Midnight navy exclusives btw

 

[nothingbutnike]

That midnight navy cw is nice. Very smart compared to the other cws. I like the laces.

 

[paidingumm]

Any word on if these colorways will be releasing in the US? Wanna order the Ultramarines, wear a US 9.5. Order the 9 UK?

 

[ta2and0]

Damn...., size?'s £60 pricing was really limited time only (as it was actually stated so on the pic nothingbutnike posted) and it's already over now..... Should've checked carefully....

Not sure if there's any plans for a US release.

Might as well go TTS on the Lights, order a UK8.5 in my opinion.

Yeah that was a sneaky discount, now they only have the ugly cws on sale. Not feeling the safari print.

 

[invinceible45]

Yea that was the only reason I picked up the midnight navy ones, Im hoping that sale comes again I would like to get my hands on a pair of the ultramarines now

Those glitter Safari Colorways are both no go for me even with those price tags (£50 in Burgundy & £60 in Navy) and unlike the limited time only 4 colorways, those still on sale (along w/ Mangos in £45) are lacking my size. Def. hoping them to come back on sale.

 

[nothingbutnike]

Mangos are not bad, a bit too loud for me tbh but £45 is a good price. I've seen other spots in the UK with the safari cws for £45 too, but no discount OGs.

 

[nothingbutnike]

A nice forthcoming cw, this one is Royal Blue.

 

[nothingbutnike]

Been a minute since we had some Huarache Light action. Size? posted a teaser pic of 2 forthcoming cws called from the 'Eclipse' pack.

I found a good shot of them both on IG, the user said they are to be release on Feb 27.

 

[MRBW]

Gotta say, if they look as they do above, versus the teaser below, it would be a bit of a slight let down.  Could be going colourblind, but thought the sole was light grey.   Still waiting on the EU release of the black/gum pair... anyone heard anything on the grapevine about a release date?
