Jovani Hernandez As the world awaits for its first low-top collaboration with sacai, the Nike Blazer has dressed up in dozens of impressive ensembles under both the Sportswear and SB categories. Its latest iteration – a Blazer Mid 77 – delves further into vintage inspiration with a colorway reminiscent of old-school hoop shoes.
Constructed with suede, leather, and canvas, uppers on the mid-height Blazer boast a “Grey Fog” arrangement complemented with “Light Photo Blue” accents. Overlays along the lateral forefoot, toe, and tongue indulge in a lighter shade of grey; laces follow suit. Branding on the tongue, which features a non-standard basketball graphic accompanied by “77” text, sports a stark blue contrasting hue, just as profile Swooshes and “NIKE” logos on the heel. Akin to a recent Air Flight 89 inspired by Harlem’s Rucker Park, this made-for-hoops silhouette dons basketball-shaped lace dubraes. Sock-liners include Coney Island’s bus route printed in “Light Photo Blue”. Underfoot, the Blazer Mid-variant forgoes its upper’s palette in favor of a plain, but timeless all-“White” finish.
