The feet of the wahine are well taken care of, but where’s the aloha kicks for the kane? I guess there is this upcoming LeBron 12 low hot lava.

And the Air Max Lunar90 Breeze Hot Lava.

Oh wait, it’s just not Nike. Looks like Hawaii is a theme destination for this season’s kicks designs. New Balance has their Luau Pack.

Adidas is featuring “Hawaiian camo” on the body of the Tubulars or just the laces.

Yes, the design of the Nike Air Huarache is still contemporary even with an original release in 1991. But they were just too old school for me. If any aspect were modernized, I’d be there – Free sole, Lunarlon foam, or a Breathe upper. But for now, as these retros finally come to the US, they are as was. Even a more colorful colorway would do the trick. But for now I’ll pass.

Champs does have the Blue Hero colorway in stock. Sizing is snug so you may have to go a half size up.
