FAQs

Are these true to size?

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo is generally considered to run true to size for most individuals. However, if you have wider feet, you might consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit due to the sock-like construction.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from soft leather, with suede accents on the toe area.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt. Avoid using water, as it can stain suede. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective.

What makes the 'Jumbo' version different from the original Blazer?

The 'Jumbo' version features an oversized Swoosh logo, a sock-like heel construction for enhanced comfort, an elasticated collar for easier entry, and a visible foam tongue, all contributing to a bolder, more contemporary take on the classic silhouette.

What kind of traction does the outsole provide?

The sneaker features a rubber outsole with a herringbone pattern, designed to provide enhanced grip, durability, and slip resistance on various surfaces.

Can these be worn in wet weather?

While the leather and rubber construction offer some protection, these sneakers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the materials.

What is the release date and original retail price?

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo 'Black Bright Crimson' was released on November 18th, 2021, with an original retail price of $110.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a leather conditioner inside the shoe, especially around the insole area. Ensure laces are tied properly.

Leather appears scuffed or marked

For minor scuffs on the leather, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For more pronounced marks, use a leather repair balm or cream matching the shoe's color. Consult a professional leather cleaner if damage is significant.

Slipping heel

Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoe is the right size but still slips, try thicker socks or consider using an insole or heel grips for a more secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic retro design with a modern update.
  • Comfortable fit thanks to the sock-like construction and padded tongue.
  • Durable leather materials suitable for everyday wear.
  • Excellent grip and traction from the specialized outsole.
  • Easy to put on and take off with the elastic collar.

Cons

  • The vintage aesthetic may not appeal to everyone.
  • Bright crimson Swoosh can be a very dominant design element.
  • Leather can require specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • Oversized Swoosh is a bold choice that may not suit minimalist styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear sneakers. No setup is required. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: Designed as a men's adult sneaker, compatible with standard sizing. It pairs well with a variety of casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, and track pants.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner, applying it sparingly with a soft brush or cloth.
  2. Suede Accents: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap of the suede toe cap. Avoid getting suede wet.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with water and mild soap to remove dirt and debris. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing.
  4. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately if needed.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect from dust and prevent creasing.
