FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective suede spray to provide a water-repellent barrier.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a dry suede brush to remove surface debris. For deeper stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner to avoid damaging the material.
Do they fit true to size?
The Blazer Mid 77 generally fits true to size. If you prefer a wider fit, some users prefer to go up half a size.
Can I use these for basketball?
While the design is inspired by 1970s basketball shoes, modern performance technology has advanced significantly; these are best suited for lifestyle use.
What is the benefit of the foam-infused tongue?
The exposed foam tongue is a hallmark of the 70s vintage aesthetic and provides a lightweight feel against the top of the foot.
Are the insoles removable?
The insoles are generally glued in place to maintain the shoe's structure, though they may be removed if you use custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or dust on the suede surface
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift dirt in the direction of the grain.
Creasing on the midfoot or toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather and suede maintain their shape.
White midsole is showing minor scuffs
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to spot clean the rubber sole components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Nike Blazer Mid 77 is straightforward. Simply adjust the laces to your desired tension for a secure fit around the midfoot. For compatibility, the neutral light smoke grey, white, and black color palette pairs effortlessly with denim, chinos, or casual joggers. To maintain the condition of the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for minor marks. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this will damage the texture and integrity of the suede material. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
