Spoiler

The Nike Huarache 2K4 was originally intended to be Kobe Bryant’s signature shoe, but instead Nike decided to go with a different approach and just allowed the Black Mamba wear them throughout its first season with the Swoosh.

Since that year, the Nike Huarache 2K4 has been a highly anticipated silhouette to have on and even off the court, which was followed by the 2K5 version a year later.

^agreed, the 2k3 were badass...i've always wanted the metallic silver and nubuck navy pair.

Hopefully the build quality/materials will be closer to the original and 2007 lasers than the recent releases.

for the beasts... (not mine)

It's still hilarious to me how they brought these back a few years ago and didn't retro a single original colorway. These flopped hard and will do the same again and I'll be there to scoop for the low to ball in. These are probably my all time favorite to play in.

Cool side note: Tinker did the original sketch for these and Eric Avar just finished the work on producing the shoe.

The good news keeps rolling in. First the uptempo, these, now if we can get some flight posite retros spec battlegrounds as well as the 2k3 mentioned earlier

 

[abovthehorizon]

Yes, one of my favorite bball shoes of all time.

 

[zack15]

2012 retro of these were absolute garbage. Hopefully the retro next year is more like the original. 

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Yeah, I'll cop for ball.

 

[blakmn89]

Nike mite as well release 2k5s too. Both 2k4&5 were great hoop shoes

 

[g money 87]

2k5 looked weird tho, after the beautys that was 2k4s

 

[israell3]

Good pair for them to retro maybe in Feb for all star.

Hell yeah bro. The Olympic cw a few years back was nice, but that Blk volt was trash. Need the og colors, silver, white red, white blue, etc

 

[ssssssonicccccc]

This is still one of my favorite shoes to hoop on. Def picking up a pair when they re release.

 

[All Ready]

need em back on id

I remember having the 2k5's Downtown LA lasered pair. Bought at the outlet.

They weren't very comfortable iirc.

Never had 2k4's.

^2k4s are way better than 2k5s

 

[ssssssonicccccc]

This. 2k4 was easily better than the 2k4. I remember Cuttino Mobley used to put in work with the 2k4s when he was with the Rockets. Then Kobe started rocking them right before his Zoom Kobe 1 released.

I remember when these were first coming out there was a sample with an 8-ball on the heel instead of the huarache logo, but I've never seen that pic again since...

I remember that too, I assumed at the time it was gonna be Kobe's logo. But then the Colorado scandal happened.

I agree with a lot of your comments: we need the OG colors Nike, not that trendy BS

Love the shoe as far as how it looked and how important it was for the history of Nike basketball...but i really didn't like them performance wise. Could never really feel the zoom in them

OGs had amazing full length zoom that you could feel. The recent retro I don't believe had any zoom at all.
