FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
The Nike Blazer Low '77 Jumbo is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for everyday wear and casual style. It is not optimized for running or intense athletic performance.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner and eraser can be used, following the product instructions carefully. Avoid using water on suede.
What is the main difference from the original Blazer Low '77?
The 'Jumbo' version features an oversized, enlarged Nike Swoosh logo on the side, offering a more modern and bold aesthetic compared to the original's standard-sized Swoosh.
What material is the main upper made of?
The main upper construction is full leather, with suede overlays on the forefoot and mesh detailing on the heel.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Generally, the Nike Blazer '77 Jumbo series is considered to run true to size for most individuals. However, personal fit can vary, and checking a size chart or trying them on if possible is recommended.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these sneakers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended as it can damage the leather and suede materials and affect the shoe's longevity.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of durable rubber, providing reliable traction for everyday use.
Troubleshooting
Laces becoming dirty
Remove laces and wash them by hand with mild detergent or machine wash in a garment bag on a gentle cycle.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try adjusting the insoles, ensuring laces are tied properly, or using talcum powder inside the shoe.
Discoloration of red Swoosh
Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing on the Swoosh. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
