1999 Nike ACG 'Lahar'

Condition: 7/10. Comes with replacement box.

Size: 7.5M (9 wmns)

Release Year: 1999

The Lahar Escape Boot initially released in 1989. and has been retroed in modified versions a few times since then. This pair has similarities to the various Lahar releases, but the overall shape and paneling is a tad different. We're not sure if they are a variation or an entirely different model. Let us know if you have the exact ID!

A lahar is a destructive mudflow on the slopes of a volcano, which is fitting given the magma-like outsole on this pair.

The boot's upper is comprised of a mix of nubuck and canvas. The branding is subtle on these with only the tongue and outside walls containing small embroidered swooshes. While these were surely designed for hiking terrain, the rope laces, metal eyelets, and rugged sole make them great for stomping around city streets in the winter too.
