FAQs

What does 'deconstructed' mean in this shoe's design?

The 'deconstructed' aspect refers to the shoe's design approach, which intentionally exposes or reinterprets traditional construction methods. This results in a patchwork of different materials and visible stitching, giving it a unique, layered, and often asymmetrical appearance.

Are these shoes good for actual skateboarding?

Yes, the Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid Deconstructed is designed with skateboarding in mind. It features a durable construction, a grippy gum sole, and Zoom Air cushioning for impact protection.

How do I clean the different materials on the shoe?

Clean suede with a suede brush or eraser, leather with a damp cloth and mild soap, and the sole with a damp cloth or sole cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoe.

What is the primary benefit of the gum sole?

The gum sole provides excellent grip and traction, which is crucial for stability and control when skateboarding.

Is there ankle support with this mid-top design?

Yes, the mid-top silhouette provides enhanced ankle support, which is beneficial for skateboarding to help prevent injuries.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a patchwork of suede, woven fabric, mesh, and leather.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Traction is reduced on the sole.

Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt and debris. Consider using a sole cleaner if necessary.

Suede panels appear dirty or stained.

Use a suede eraser for light marks. For heavier stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft brush. Apply a suede protector after cleaning.

Laces are fraying or worn.

Replace worn laces with new ones of similar length and material. Ensure they are tied securely but not overly tight to avoid damaging eyelets.

Discomfort during initial wear.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure correct sizing.
