FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for beginners in skateboarding?

Yes, the mid-top design offers good ankle support, and the durable construction is suitable for learning. The improved traction also aids new skaters.

How do I clean the different materials on the upper?

Use a soft brush for suede and a damp cloth for leather. Avoid soaking the shoes. Specialized cleaners for suede and leather are recommended for tougher stains.

What is the primary function of the mid-top design?

The mid-top design provides enhanced ankle support and protection, which is beneficial for skateboarding to prevent injuries and improve board control.

Does this model feature Nike's Zoom Air cushioning?

While not explicitly detailed for every variant, the 'Zoom Blazer' name and 'Premium SB' designation typically indicate the presence of Nike's responsive Zoom Air cushioning, particularly in the heel, for impact absorption.

How does the sizing run for this model (UK 12)?

Nike sizing can vary. UK 12 is a specific size. It is advisable to compare with Nike's official size chart or try them on if possible, as foot shapes differ.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials (leather, suede, textile) and the shoe's construction.

Troubleshooting

Reduced traction on the sole

Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth and brush to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be hindering grip.

Suede material looking worn or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For more significant stains, consider a suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a durable pair of flat or round shoelaces suitable for athletic footwear. Consider waxed laces for added durability.

Discomfort or pressure points during wear

Ensure the shoes are laced correctly, not too tight or too loose. Break-in period may be required for new shoes; wear them for short periods initially.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Nike Zoom Blazer Mid Premium SB:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For suede and leather components, use a soft brush or a dedicated suede cleaner to remove dry dirt. For stubborn marks on leather, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Avoid using excessive water, especially on suede.
  2. Textile Areas: Lightly brush or use a damp cloth on textile parts. For tougher stains, a mild fabric cleaner may be applied sparingly.
  3. Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a brush to remove dirt and restore grip.
  4. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as they can damage the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.
