Another colourway of the growing x collaborations is primed for release soon, following the recent . Add on the and , and the result is an upcoming busy time for the Blazer.
The chopped-down ankle height seems to be the new pathway for sacai and the Swoosh to prolong their once enthralling partnership that began in 2015 before reaching fever pitch in 2019.

The cut-down ankles reveal pre-requisite foam collars while retaining the heavily built-up heel counters, which, if anything, should provide some welcome support.
The sacai x Nike Blazer Low ‘Iron Grey’ is due to release on August 4.
