FAQs

Are these suitable for professional skateboarding?

The Nike Blazer Low '1972' is designed for light skateboarding and everyday wear. For professional or intense skateboarding, dedicated skate shoes with enhanced cushioning and support are recommended.

How do I choose the right size?

It is recommended to consult the Nike size chart. Many users find the Blazer Low fits true to size, but variations can occur. If possible, try them on in person or check reviews for sizing advice.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, washing machines are not recommended for leather shoes like the Nike Blazer Low '1972' as it can damage the material and construction.

What is the main difference between the '1972' and other Blazer models?

The '1972' specifically references the original Blazer silhouette from that year, often featuring design cues and materials that evoke that vintage era, while maintaining modern construction for comfort and durability.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store your Nike Blazer Low '1972' in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.

Does the red detailing fade over time?

With proper care, the red detailing should remain vibrant. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning agents which could potentially affect the color.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thin socks for a short period to allow the leather to stretch naturally. Consider using a shoe tree to help maintain shape and provide a gentle stretch.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes happen with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or where the tongue rubs against the shoe.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees for storage.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The wear-resistant sole is designed for general use. For very slick surfaces, ensure your stride is confident and be mindful of conditions. Regular wear will often improve grip.
