Nike makes a product they call the Nike Air Huarache and I have to be honest, I don’t really know why because it has nothing to do with the Mexican huaraches, which are sandals that have the woven leather upper.
And it certainly has nothing to do with the Tarahumara huarache running sandals.
So I don’t really know why they use that name, but if there's any confusion, now you understand what the situation is. Hope that’s helpful.
