FAQs
Is the Nike SB Blazer Mid Olympic suitable for professional skating?
Yes, it is designed with features like reinforced toe areas and a durable outsole specifically to meet the demands of skateboarders.
How should I choose the right size?
The shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical sneaker size, keeping in mind the leather may feel snug initially.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing will damage the leather and the structural glue. Always clean by hand using a damp cloth.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are made of natural leather, which is water-resistant to a degree but not waterproof. We recommend a leather-safe water-repellent spray for added protection.
Does the black color fade over time?
Like all dyed leather products, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heavy abrasion may cause fading. Proper maintenance and storage help preserve the color.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality, durable leather.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff upon arrival
Wear them with thicker socks for the first few uses to help stretch and soften the leather gradually.
Accumulated dirt on the leather surface
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp microfiber cloth with a mild leather cleaner; avoid harsh chemical solvents.
Creasing in the toe box area
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather; use shoe trees when not wearing to minimize deep creases and maintain the silhouette.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, follow these care steps:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather to contour to your feet.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesives.
- Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking or drying out.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the black dye and materials.
- Fit: These trainers are sized for adult men; ensure you check your exact UK size to ensure optimal comfort and performance.
