Vachetta leather has long been a staple of the sneaker scene, but most align its influence status by the rise of Hender Scheme mid-last decade. But while the popularity of the Japanese label may have receded, the use of premium Vachetta leather in sneakers has not. This two-piece Nike Blazer “Patina Pack” is a testament to that, already striking a chord with the sneakersphere, thanks to its premium build and use of a timeless silhouette.
The hoop shoe-come-streetwear staple is offered up in two renditions — white/tan and black — with each resting atop a classic sail sole unit. Each pair is then capped with buttery soft Vachetta leather at the Swoosh and heel, a material known for its “patina”—an aging process that gives each slab of fabric singular color and character. Debossed branding at the heel adds to the premium feel, while leather tongues and classic Nike branding tags complete the design.
Take in an official look at the Nike Blazer Mid “Patina Pack” below, and look for both options to hit Nike.com on February 24th for $100 a pop.
