    Nike Blazer Mid ’77 “Sweatband” Has Some Retro Hoops Flair

    Nike Sportswear is about to embark on a colorful new retro hoops collection where each included hardwood design sees both a colorful scheme and a shake-up to its material mix. The first to be revealed was the fur-lined Black/Multi-Color More Uptempo followed by a jersey mesh and corduroy-clad Air Force 1 Low, and now it looks to both basketball textured leather and throwback sweatbands in the back.

    The latter is seen in an unmistakable red/white/red banding, seen on the heads and wrists of hoopers throughout the 1970s and 80s. Elsewhere, the pair retains its simple white leather and neutral suede construct but adds a little retro flair through sail midsole wraps and gum rubber traction underfoot. It’s then finished off with a quartet of colorful basketball-like Swooshes — likely a nod to the NBA’s biggest franchises — before the pack’s special graphic insoles complete the design.

    Enjoy an official look at this hoops-honoring Nike Blazer Mid “Sweatband” here below, and look for these to roll out at select Swoosh retailers alongside the accompanying collection soon.
