The Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid (Black/White/Black) seamlessly fuses classic design with modern skateboarding functionality. This mid-top sneaker features a durable black suede upper, offering both a sleek aesthetic and resilience against the wear and tear of skateboarding. The contrasting white leather Nike Swoosh on the side panels adds a striking visual element, while the padded mid-top collar ensures enhanced ankle support, crucial for skaters performing technical maneuvers.
Engineered for performance, the shoe incorporates a Zoom Air unit in the sockliner, delivering responsive cushioning that effectively absorbs impact during landings. The vulcanized construction melds the outsole directly to the upper, providing a flexible, broken-in feel right out of the box. Additionally, the tacky rubber outsole with a herringbone tread pattern offers exceptional grip and multi-directional traction, essential for maintaining board control.
Nike, established in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports and rebranded in 1971, has long been at the forefront of athletic footwear innovation. The introduction of the Blazer in 1972 marked Nike's entry into basketball footwear, but its clean lines and versatile design quickly transcended the hardwood. By the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Blazer was embraced by the skateboarding community, leading to the creation of the Nike SB line, which tailored the classic silhouette to meet the specific demands of skateboarders.
The Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid (Black/White/Black) stands as a testament to Nike's commitment to blending heritage aesthetics with contemporary performance features, making it a staple for both skateboarders and sneaker enthusiasts.
