FAQs

What makes the sacai x Blazer Low 'Black Patent' unique?

Its uniqueness comes from sacai's signature design elements, including a doubled tongue, dual lacing system, and exposed foam, combined with a glossy black patent leather upper, all built on the classic Blazer silhouette.

How do I clean the patent leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher marks or scuffs, a cleaner specifically designed for patent leather is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Is this shoe comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Blazer silhouette is known for its comfort, and the stacked midsole adds additional cushioning. They are suitable for everyday activities, though comfort can be subjective.

What size should I order?

These sneakers generally fit true to size. Refer to Nike's official sizing guide and consider trying them on if possible. The 'Black Patent' is available in various UK adult sizes.

Can I wash the shoes?

No, washing machines are not recommended for these sneakers as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean only using the methods described in the care section.

What does the 'sacai' collaboration add to the Blazer Low?

The sacai collaboration introduces a deconstructed aesthetic with layered elements like doubled tongues and laces, reinterpreting the classic Blazer with a contemporary, avant-garde twist.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by a basketball shoe, the 'Black Patent' model is primarily a lifestyle sneaker. It's suitable for walking and casual activities but not recommended for intense athletic performance.

Troubleshooting

Patent leather scuffing

Gently clean scuffs with a soft cloth and a specialized patent leather cleaner. For deep scuffs, professional restoration may be considered.

Tongue feels bulky

The doubled tongue is an intentional design feature. Adjust the lacing to distribute pressure and find a comfortable fit. Experiment with different lacing patterns.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with standard flat laces or consider custom dual-tone laces that complement the shoe's design. Ensure replacements are of similar length.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new leather or due to moisture. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area.
