Dario Villasenor Valdivia let his personality shine through the Nike Air Huarache Run. He loves eating oranges, which explains the bright orange color and pebbled texture of the upper. The brown furry material is a nod to the plush toy that his big sister bought him years ago after a long hospital stay. As for the stick figures on the toe box, they represent Dario’s passion for animation, which he plans to do professionally someday.
Silver accents appear on the heel tab of Dario’s Air Huarache Run, which features his initials on the side. To top it all off, Dario included the two words that serve as his personal mantra through life: Siempre Fuerte (Always Strong). “My friends tell me that I’ve always been strong, so I thought it might inspire other people to be strong too,” he said. A release date for the Nike Air Huarache Run “Doernbecher” has yet to be announced but expect to be released soon via Nike and select retailers for $130.
