For years now, the differences between Nike Sportswear’s Blazer Highs and Mids have been sufficiently subtle that not only have people openly asked which is which and if there’s any real difference, but even 30 seconds of googling should give you a handful of mislabeled results. To make matters worse, Nike SB introduced a cupsoled Blazer in 2010 whose official name is ‘Blazer CS’, but whose height made mixing a ‘Mid’ in there all to easy.
