FAQs

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

The 'Jumbo' version features updated design elements like an elasticated heel with large pull tabs for easier wear, oversized Nike Swooshes, and jumbo laces, differentiating it from the classic Blazer silhouette.

Are these suitable for basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. They may not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for competitive basketball.

How do I clean the suede parts of the sneaker?

Use a dedicated suede brush or eraser to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear can be used, followed by brushing.

What is the fit like?

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo generally fits true to size. However, individual experiences may vary, and it's recommended to consult sizing charts or try them on if possible.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The combination of leather, suede, and stitching means these are not ideal for heavy rain. Suede is particularly susceptible to water damage. It's best to wear them in dry conditions or use waterproofing sprays.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is constructed with a mix of leather and suede materials, with stitched overlays contributing to the vintage aesthetic.

What does the '77' in the name refer to?

The '77' refers to the year the original Nike Blazer was introduced, highlighting the shoe's vintage origins.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty lacing the jumbo laces

Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets correctly. If they feel stiff, try loosening them slightly before tightening to your desired fit.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces. If persistent, ensure the insole is seated correctly or check for any debris trapped in the sole.

Discoloration on leather or suede

Clean affected areas immediately with appropriate cleaners for leather and suede. For suede, a suede eraser can often remove surface marks. Protectants can help prevent future stains.

Traction feels reduced

Clean the herringbone pattern on the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive retro design with modern, oversized branding.
  • Comfortable for daily wear with easy on-and-off features.
  • Durable construction with quality leather and suede materials.
  • Good traction from the rubber herringbone outsole.
  • Offers a blend of classic athletic heritage and contemporary fashion.

Cons

  • May not provide the advanced cushioning found in specialized modern athletic shoes.
  • The vintage-inspired design might not appeal to those preferring minimalist aesthetics.
  • Suede accents may require more careful maintenance than full leather.
  • Exposed stitching, while a design element, could be a point of wear over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These are ready-to-wear sneakers straight out of the box. Ensure the jumbo laces are tied to your preferred comfort level for a secure fit.

Compatibility:

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo is designed for adult males and is compatible with most casual wear, including jeans, shorts, and athletic apparel. It is suitable for everyday activities.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For leather and suede components, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Suede Care: Use a suede eraser or brush to maintain the texture and appearance of the suede accents. Protect suede areas with a suede protector spray.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain traction. Ensure the sole is dry before wear.
  • Laces: Jumbo laces can be removed and washed gently by hand if necessary.
