Nike Blazer High VNTG – Sail – Red – White

Not sure if this actually qualifies as magic, but somehow the classic Nike Blazer High design with vintage treatments manages to look perfectly modern.  This pair goes with a nice grey tumbled leather upper and a bright red smooth leather Swoosh to match the heel embroidery.  It’s a rich look that would have any Ohio State van salivating, but they manage major crossover appeal to anyone who wants the weathered look by way of yellowed tongues and midsoles.  They seem to have white laces, interestingly enough, so you’ll have to get those dirty for yourself.  First, though, you’ll have to cop them from 95Soleman on eBay.
