Not too long ago when I was still in college, at least one guy in every friend group would be sporting some Nike Blazer Mids when we went out on a Thursday night. Now that I am a professional Gen Z girlie working in the corporate world, I can’t help but notice colleagues in my business casual office sporting the same high tops I used to see off campus.
Meaning? You’re never too old, or young, to sport this high top sneaker.
First released in 1973 as a basketball shoe—the Beaverton, Oregon-based Nike named the design after the Trail Blazers, the nearby NBA team—the sneaker is back in a big way, and looks good worn in all kinds of casual outfits.
Now, I don’t claim to be a sneakerhead, and there’s more styles than I can count on two hands (there’s even a low version), so let’s start simple. Check out three ways to wear the Nike Blazer Mid ’77 in outfits in 2024.

Look 1: Workwear pants with a hoodie
You can easily stick to your basics while wearing these sneakers for an elevated everyday outfit. For instance, a pair of twill pants and a hoodie never fails.

Not gonna lie, I can see you wearing this, like, tomorrow.
Look 3: leather jacket and jeans
I am loving the leather and denim mix here. Want to go lighter? Swap in an overshirt, or any of your favorite light layers for that matter.
The white t-shirt and selvedge denim jeans makes for a solid outfit base that you can dress up and down.

This outfit is deceptively simple, but with elevated basics, the overall effect is laid-back sophisticate.
