Nike SB Blazer Mid Premium - Optical Illusion

We saw that the Air Jordan 1 Low Phat inspired by MJ and the Bulls’ 1996 victory over the Seattle Supersonics is just a tad off when it comes to conveying green in the pics, and these go in the opposite direction. What at first appears to be a black Nike Blazer SB Mid Premium with white accents is upon closer inspection still black, but also reveals laser etched concentric circles (think fingerprint). Keep squinting and you’ll find that everything other than the majority of the midsole is actually ice green. The front of that midsole, upper heel and perforated Swoosh are in that chilly verde. The perforations on Nike’s omnipresent logo evokes one of those stunning DQM Dunks from last year. Throw in ice green and purple laces along with the purple lining and these are easy to recommend. Look for them starting today at select Nike SB retailers. sneakernews.com
