FAQs

How often should I clean my Nike Blazer Mid 77 Vintage?

It's best to clean them as needed, especially after noticeable dirt or scuffs appear. Regular light cleaning of the white upper and brushing of the suede can maintain their look.

Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?

While the rubber outsole provides traction, the suede and textile upper is not waterproof. It's recommended to avoid heavy rain, or to apply a protective spray designed for suede and fabric if light moisture is unavoidable.

Are these true to size?

Nike Blazer Mid 77 Vintage generally fits true to size for most individuals. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of suede leather and textile materials, with a durable rubber outsole.

How do I protect the yellow parts from fading?

Minimize prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. When not in use, store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag.

Are they suitable for athletic activities?

No, these sneakers are designed for casual wear and style. They are not intended for high-performance athletic activities like running, basketball, or training.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction to restore its texture and appearance. For stubborn areas, a suede eraser can help.

Yellow accents appear dirty or faded

Gently clean the yellow textile areas with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. For rubber accents, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid harsh cleaners.

Squeaking sound from soles

Often caused by moisture or air trapped between layers. Try removing the insole and wiping the inside of the shoe and the bottom of the insole with a dry cloth. If squeaking persists, a light application of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole might help.

General dirt and scuffs on white upper

For light dirt, use a soft, damp cloth. For tougher scuffs, a dedicated sneaker cleaner applied with a soft brush can be effective. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and preserve the appearance of your Nike Blazer Mid 77 Vintage:

  • General Cleaning: For textile and rubber parts, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Suede Care:
  • Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap.
  • For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly, following product instructions.
  • To protect suede from water and stains, consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter.
  • Drying: Always air dry sneakers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Shoe trees can help maintain shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
