Nike Blazer

Nike debuted the Blazer in 1973 as a performance basketball sneaker, mounting a leather upper and mesh nylon tongue atop a textured vulcanized rubber sole. Named after the Portland Trail Blazers and favored by George “The Iceman” Gervin, the iconic design transcended the hardwood, helping define 21st-century style through collaborations with street artist Futura and skater Lance Mountain. From high and low-top iterations to acclaimed collaborations, explore the past, present and future of the Nike Blazer including a collaboration with Chevrolet in 'Team Dark Green' and 'Surf Blue.'
