FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you prefer a wider fit, some users suggest going up half a size, but the standard UK 9.5 is designed to be accurate.
Can I use these for basketball?
While based on a basketball silhouette, these are lifestyle shoes. They lack the high-performance cushioning required for competitive sports.
How do I clean the exposed foam tongue?
Use a very soft, dry brush to gently lift dirt. Avoid getting the foam soaking wet as it can degrade or become discolored.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
No, the leather is not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather-specific water repellent to protect against moisture.
What does the 'Rebel' in the title mean?
It refers to the deconstructed and unconventional design elements, such as the asymmetrical lacing and mirrored branding, which challenge the standard look of the classic Nike Blazer.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose or uneven
Retighten by starting from the bottom eyelets and pulling each section individually to ensure consistent tension across the asymmetrical pattern.
Creasing appearing on the toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help maintain the leather's shape and reduce permanent creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Nike Blazer Mid Rebel in top condition, ensure you store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the Ghost Aqua color.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the leather, use a mild leather cleaner or a damp cloth with gentle soap, then air dry away from heat sources.
- Lacing: Take your time to tighten the asymmetrical laces evenly; the unique path of the laces means it may take an extra moment to ensure the pressure is distributed comfortably across the bridge of your foot.
- Protection: Consider using a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to guard against unexpected spills or rain, especially given the light color scheme.
