FAQs
What is the main difference between the Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo and the original Blazer Mid '77?
The 'Jumbo' version features oversized Nike Swooshes, larger pull tabs on the heel and tongue, and jumbo laces, offering a more modern and distinct aesthetic compared to the original's classic design.
Are these shoes good for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball heritage, the Blazer Mid '77 Jumbo is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker. For serious on-court performance, dedicated basketball shoes are recommended.
How do I clean the white leather and black suede parts?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For suede, use a soft brush or suede eraser. Avoid using harsh chemicals on either material.
What does 'Vulcanized Structure' mean for the midsole?
A vulcanized sole construction means the rubber sole is bonded to the upper through a process involving heat and pressure. This typically results in a more flexible and durable shoe with a lower profile.
What is the material composition of the upper?
The upper is crafted with a mix of leather and suede, providing both durability and a classic textural appearance.
What is the benefit of the raised herringbone pattern on the outsole?
The raised herringbone pattern enhances grip and provides improved traction and durability on various surfaces.
What sizes are available?
These sneakers are available in a range of adult men's sizes. Please refer to the sizing chart for specific conversions.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty lacing up
Loosen the jumbo laces significantly before attempting to put on the shoe. Once on, retighten to your desired fit.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try walking on different surfaces to see if the sound persists. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.
Discoloration on suede areas
Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, attempt gentle cleaning with a suede eraser or brush. For significant issues, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
While the herringbone outsole offers good grip, all rubber soles can be less effective on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
