Nike Blazers
Though the Nike Blazers initially hit the scene as sportswear shoes, they are much more practical as fashion footwear these days. Nike co-founders Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman named the kicks after the Portland Trail Blazers; however, it was the San Antonio Spurs’ George “The Iceman” Gervin who gave the sneakers their well-earned notoriety. When basketball players turned to other flashier shoes, street artists, skateboarders and fashionistas happily adopted the Nike Blazer and its timeless, uncomplicated design.
Old-school branding and exposed needlework provide Nike Blazer sneakers with visual appeal and plenty of character. Complete your look with Nike Blazers styled with a Nike hoodie and jeans. Pair women’s Nike Blazer shoes with a Nike crop top or sports bra, a jacket and matching joggers. Match your kids with Nike Blazer shoes, comfy athletic pants and a graphic tee perfect for school and play. Find more Nike Blazer fit inspo at our Unboxed blog.

When did the Nike Blazer come out?
In 1973, in Portland, Oregon, Nike co-founders Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman unveiled their third shoe as part of the Nike Sportswear lineup — the Nike Blazer. The dynamic duo named the sneak after the Portland Trail Blazers, and it was an instant success thanks to its innovative design.
Do Nike Blazers run small?
Whether you’re shopping for the men’s Nike Blazer or the women’s Nike Blazer, these kicks typically fit true to size; however, some wearers report them being somewhat narrow. So if you have a wide foot, you may consider sizing up.
How do I lace the Nike Blazer?
If you’re looking for new ways to lace your Nike Blazer Mid ’77, Nike Blazer Low, Nike Blazer High Top or Nike Blazer Mid sneaks, consider the window lacing method. Start by threading both lace ends into their respective bottom eyelets, creating a horizontal bar. Begin lacing in a crisscross pattern, and at the third eyelet from the bottom, insert the lace directly over and through the eyelet above. Repeat the pattern on both sides until you reach the top. Then, finish with a bow.
How do I clean the Nike Blazer?
Nike Blazers are a cinch to clean. Simply remove dried dirt with a soft-bristled brush or toothbrush. Then mix warm water with a bit of mild laundry detergent. Dip a soft rag into your cleaning solution, and rub lightly to lift away dirt. Finally, let your shoes air dry.

Are Nike Blazers good for basketball?
Named after the Portland Trail Blazers, Nike Blazers initially hit the scene as a sport sneak; however, today’s models are more of an everyday shoe exuding that classic Swoosh style. And when yesteryear ballers transitioned their focus to flashier shoes, street artists, skateboarders and fashionistas happily adopted the Nike Blazer and its timeless, uncomplicated design.
