Elliot Santiago After sharing a first look at their specially-crafted Dunk Low colorway that celebrates the 25th anniversary of Nike Vietnam yesterday, the Nike SB division is now turning to another one of their staple silhouettes in the Blazer Mid to bring a new rendition to life. Closely associated with the Swoosh’s pro-skater Grant Taylor, the silhouette is seen here borrowing signature design elements from Beaverton’s outdoor-ready family known as Nike ACG.
Sporting a classic hiking-ready color story, this installment comes packaged with base layers that splits its forefoot and rear between murky brown leather and canvas, rubberized Swooshes, and tongue/heel accents that blend together vibrant tones of purple and orange. A playful nod to Nike’s functional apparel/footwear family is directly located on the tongue which ushers in the lettering “GTP” but in a way that remixes the traditional ACG logo. Furthermore, the midsoles come painted with black and white speckled detailing to further reverberate its trail-esque motif. Check out a first look here, and stay tuned for more information regarding its release likely on Nike.com.
