The world-famous Nike Swoosh has humble beginnings. Designed by a friend of a friend, the Check hs since become one of the world’s most recognizable motifs. It’s gone through a handful of changes over the years, with many early-on designs from multiple years confusing the masses as to its actual first use. Now the Swoosh is setting the record straight with this next-up Nike Blazer Mid “First Use” release, making the exact date on the profile.
June 18th, 1971 is the identified date, embroidered into the lower lateral size below the outlined Swoosh — also embroidered. These two embellishments join vintage cursive Nike branding in the rear and solid orange Swooshes on the instep. Outsoles follow suit, with everything else arriving in white leather and bone suede. Capping off the design is a dual lace set, retro logo-branded insoles, and special lace bling — a golden Swoosh mounted with a solitary diamond.
