Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage

A LEGEND CELEBRATES LIFE AND DEATH.

The Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage takes inspiration from Día de Muertos, a Mexican tradition that celebrates life and death while honoring family and beloved ones. Inspired by the traditional ofrenda placed every year during Día de Muertos celebration, it remixes heritage with a modern approach grounded on art and culture. A special reveal effect in the debossed paneling on the shoe—including our iconic logo—can be rubbed over time to reveal bright colors underneath, reminding the wearer that even in death our family members are always with us.

Color Surprise

Various parts of the shoe—including the Swoosh design—can be rubbed off to reveal bright colors.

Heritage Hoops Style

Suede, leather and synthetic leather in the upper feel comfortable while stitched overlays and exposed needlework add to the throwback look. Vintage treatment on the midsole combines with heritage styling for an old-school look and feel.

Flower of the Dead

By the back of the shoe, an embroidered marigold represents the flower of the dead, whose scent is used to reunite living and departed family members during holiday celebrations.
