FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for beginners in skateboarding?
Yes, the Nike SB Blazer Mid offers a good balance of durability, grip, and support, making them a solid choice for beginner skateboarders.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It's recommended to try them on if possible. Generally, they should fit snugly but not be uncomfortably tight. Ensure there's a little room in the toe box, and the heel shouldn't slip excessively.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles may affect performance and material longevity.
What is the main difference between the SB Blazer Mid and a regular Blazer?
The SB (Skateboarding) version features enhanced durability, improved cushioning, and a sole designed for better grip and board feel, specifically tailored for skateboarding.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Regular cleaning after use, especially if they get dirty from skateboarding, will help maintain their appearance and longevity. A deep clean can be performed as needed.
What does 'Mid' in Blazer Mid refer to?
'Mid' refers to the height of the shoe's collar, which sits above the ankle bone, providing more support than a low-top but less restriction than a high-top.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the sole and the insole. Try removing the insole and ensuring both are completely dry, or place a small piece of tissue paper under the insole.
Laces wear out quickly
Consider replacing the standard laces with skateboarding-specific laces that are often made from more durable materials designed to resist abrasion from grip tape.
Limited cushioning for heavy impact
While designed for skateboarding, for very heavy impact or prolonged running, consider adding aftermarket insoles that offer enhanced cushioning and shock absorption.
