Fans of the Nike Blazer Mid will be happy to hear that Nike has decided to bring back OG colorways of the model. Not only that, but the materials used on the shoe appear to be remastered as well. One of the colorway releasing soon is the White and Black color scheme you see above.

The Nike Blazer Mid comes dressed in OG fashion as a White premium lather upper takes care of the majority of the shoe. The White is also extended to the laces and down to the sole of the shoe. Black accents found on the branding throughout the shoe create nice sharp contrast. A foam tongue and a gum outsole round out the look. Available internationally, it’s only a matter of time before these drop in the states.

I consider this a must have if I’m a fan of the Blazer lineage. The colorway is clean and the materials used on the upper look better than usual.

I would have added a bit more Gold to it, and perhaps use a Flyknit upper. Aside from that, it’s a decent colorway on the Kobe 11.

The Nike Blazer Mid is one of Nike’s most iconic sneakers they’ve ever created. The 1970’s creation releases every single year in different colorway, patterns, graphics and textures. This time around, Nike decided to release the shoe in OG fashion

The Nike Blazer Mid OG is a version of the shoe that’s meant to look exactly like the pair from the ’70s. The shoe starts off with a White premium leather upper accompanied by more White placed on the sole unit, laces and lining. Contrasting the tonal look are the Red accents placed on the branding on the heel and Nike Swoosh on the side panels. A gum colored outsole and additional Black branding on the foam tongue complete the OG feel of the shoe. Available internationally, expect these to drop stateside in the near future.

The Nike Blazer gets released in countless colorways on a yearly basis, but it’s been quite a while since we’ve seen a version that looks like it came straight from the 1970s when the shoe was actually being worn on the basketball court. These two OG-inspired editions of the classic Blazer Mid should have any basketball sneaker historian thinking of Nike’s early days when the shoe was being worn throughout the NBA, and should especially have you thinking of the Portland Trailblazers?one of the first teams with players to sport the Blazer?thanks to the white leather uppers with your choice of red or black Swooshes. Vintage sneaker fans can grab these excellent renditions of the Blazer now from select European shops, and soon here in the US.

Take a look at one of Nike’s newest model above, the Nike Zoom Cabos. Does this model remind you of another one? It turns out the the Zoom Cabos is a modern and altered rendition of the Nike Zoom The Glove.

The shoe no longer has laces, it comes with a Dynamic Flywire cables that wrap all around the shoe. to help give it its unique and futuristic look. As of right now, two colorway have been unveiled.

Is it just me, or am I getting sort of a A Tribe Called Quest vibe when I take a look at these shoes? Regardless, here’s a look at the Nike Air Rift that comes in an all-Black colorway (almost).

The shoe rocks on all-Black upper made out of suede, neoprene and mesh. Creating contrast on the shoe are the White hits placed on the sole unit and heel and toe Nike branding. A look inside noted an insole done in a Black, Green and Red wavy pattern. Like what you see? The shoe just dropped today at select retailers for the retail price of $100. Is this a cop or drop? Let us know in the comments below.

It’a a hybrid sneaker/sandal.  I used to hate the look of the shoe, as I’ve gotten older, I no longer hate it, I just don’t like it. Not really my style.

The woven knit upper, slimmed down Tape-like mudguard, and lightweight Ultra outsole unit all create a sleek design still similar to the original silhouette. This Bright Crimson rendition will definitely turn heads thanks to the added vibrancy throughout while simple white branding allows for the tongue branding and Swoosh to stand out.
