Product Information

Full details

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo 'Black Bright Crimson' is designed for adults seeking a stylish, comfortable, and durable retro-inspired sneaker. Its key benefit lies in its unique blend of classic design with modern comfort features, such as the elastic collar and oversized Swoosh. A potential consideration is that the vintage aesthetic, while appealing, may not suit those preferring purely contemporary athletic footwear. This iteration features a black leather upper with suede accents, a visible foam tongue, an elasticated collar for easy wear, and a durable rubber sole with a sawtooth pattern for enhanced grip.

FAQs

Are these suitable for running?

While comfortable for everyday wear, the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo are lifestyle sneakers and not designed for high-impact running. They offer good grip for casual use.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid saturating the suede.

What is the main difference from the original Blazer?

The 'Jumbo' version features an elasticated collar for easier slip-on wear, a more pronounced, 'Jumbo' sized Swoosh, and a slightly more contemporary sock-like construction in the heel area, while retaining the classic Blazer silhouette.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo trainers are considered to run true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. It's recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible.

What does '77' refer to in the name?

The '77' in Nike Blazer Mid '77 refers to the year the original Blazer silhouette was introduced.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the materials and affect comfort.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on

Ensure the elastic collar is fully stretched and try sliding your foot in smoothly. If the fit is still tight, consider if this size is appropriate for your foot.

Squeaking sound

Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a leather conditioner to the tongue or where the shoe parts rub.

Discoloration on leather

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid excessive exposure to sunlight or harsh chemicals.

Traction issues

Ensure the sawtooth outsole is free from debris. Clean the sole with a brush or damp cloth. For worn-out tread, consider replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult males and are compatible with most casual and athletic wear styles. They are not specifically designed for high-performance athletic activities that require specialized footwear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo trainers:
