FAQs

Are these Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage shoes suitable for playing basketball?

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage is designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, paying homage to its basketball heritage. While durable, it does not incorporate modern athletic technologies for high-performance sports like basketball.

How do I best clean the Opti Yellow Swoosh and branding?

For the Opti Yellow accents, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the area to avoid damage or color fading, and then pat dry with a clean cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.

What materials are used in the construction of this shoe?

The upper of the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage Opti Yellow is constructed using a combination of suede leather and textile materials, complemented by a durable rubber outsole for traction.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage models generally run true to size. For this specific variant (UK 9 for adults), we recommend purchasing your standard UK shoe size for a comfortable fit.

Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the suede and textile components are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid heavy rain and consider applying a water-resistant spray for light moisture protection to preserve the materials and appearance.

When was the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage Opti Yellow originally released?

This specific Opti Yellow colorway of the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage was originally released on May 6, 2019.

Troubleshooting

Shoes appear dirty or stained quickly

Regularly clean the leather and suede surfaces with appropriate cleaning products. For suede, use a specialized brush to remove dirt. For leather, wipe with a damp cloth.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by air trapped between the insole and outsole. Try removing the insole, cleaning the interior of the shoe, and reinserting it. If the squeaking persists, a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch sprinkled under the insole can help reduce friction.

Color fading on yellow accents

Minimize prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that might strip color or damage the material.

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially

The leather and suede materials may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape. Wearing thick socks can also aid in the break-in process.

Cleaning Leather Areas: Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Gently wipe the leather surfaces, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth and pat dry. 2. Cleaning Suede Areas: For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris. For stains, a suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar applied with a clean cloth can be used gently. Allow to air dry naturally. 3. Cleaning Textile Components: Spot clean textile areas with a gentle fabric cleaner or a solution of mild soap and water. 4. Outsole Cleaning: Use a brush or an old toothbrush with soap and water to clean the rubber outsole. 5. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials or cause discoloration. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. 6. Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to protect against moisture and dirt. 7. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and prolonged sun exposure.
