FAQs
Are the Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo true to size?
Most users find them to fit true to size for a regular adult foot. However, if you have wider feet, you might consider trying them on or looking for reviews specific to fit.
How do I clean the suede accents?
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution can be used sparingly.
Can these shoes be worn for sports?
The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While they offer good traction for everyday activities, they are not recommended for intense athletic performance or sports.
What is the main difference from the original Nike Blazer?
The 'Jumbo' version features modern updates like an elastic heel with large pull tabs for easier wear, oversized Nike Swoosh branding, and jumbo laces, differentiating its aesthetic and convenience from the original.
Are they waterproof?
No, these shoes are not waterproof. They are constructed from leather and suede, which can be damaged by excessive moisture. Using a water-repellent spray is recommended for added protection.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is a combination of leather and suede, providing a premium look and feel with a mix of textures.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The vulcanized rubber outsole with a raised herringbone pattern is designed for durability and provides excellent traction for everyday use.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on the shoes
Ensure the elastic heel is fully stretched and use the pull tabs to guide your foot in. Loosen the jumbo laces if necessary.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the laces are tied correctly. If persistent, check for debris inside the shoe.
Scuff marks on leather or suede
For leather, use a leather cleaner or conditioner. For suede, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning kit. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced traction
Clean the rubber outsole to remove any dirt or debris that may be impacting grip. The herringbone pattern is designed for traction, so keeping it clear is essential.
