In September we brought you a look at the Nike Air Max 90 Current Huarache that Dave’s Quality Meat helped design and became nicknamed “Bacon.” Now, certain retailers have in stock a similar looking pair of the aforementioned collaborative sneaker. Pictured here is a Nike Air Max 90 Current Huarache that pays homage to the “Bacon” one designed by DQM by only slightly altering the color scheme.

With these slight alterations, could you even decide which pair you favor? Let us know after the jump.

Continuing with the “electric green” theme popping up in sneaker news, most notably associated with the Vandal High, Nike plans to release a Nike Air Max 90 Current in a similar colorway. This particular pair is very intricate. First off, it comes in a predominantly dark colored base, which allows for the grey braille pattern to be pronounced. Electric green accents are applied to the patented Nike check and around the air bubble unit. To finish things off, Nike has applied a vibrant blue to the shoe’s sock lining and air bubble, while it all sits atop a white sole and comes with shoe laces in the same color. Which upcoming “electric green” Nike release do you like more- the Vandal High or Air Max 90 Current? How does this Air Max 90 Current stack up with the other previewed Air Max 90 Currents? Expect these to drop in February of 2010.
