Gifting: The Nike Way

Words: Lesego Ntsime | Images: Supplied

‘Tis the season for giving, gifting, and finally drawing the curtains on what has been an eventful year. As we prepare to rest and reflect on all this year has brought us, gifting remains an intentional way to celebrate ourselves and those we love.

And what better way to do so than with a bit of retail therapy?

In the theme of celebration, the Nike Blazer Mid ‘77 Jumbo honours the past while recognising the endless possibilities of the here and now, because who are we devoid of who we have been?

Notorious for its durable form and appearance, as well as its simple silhouette, it speaks to a subtle yet certain confidence. In a circle of friends, think of this sneaker as the trusted friend who is committed to authenticity because they value the power of staying true to oneself.

The bigger the SWOOSH, the bolder the steps - we’re just doing it, only bigger and better.

The Blazer is an embodiment of extraordinary simplicity. With contrasting textures, striking stitching, and that captivating SWOOSH, it will easily work its way up as your go-to sneaker for both work and play. But we haven’t forgotten the most intrinsic value of kicks, comfort, and convenience. Gone are the days of having to worry about tying your laces when you’re in a hurry (or when you just don’t feel like it), the sizable pull-up tabs make wearing the Blazer as simple as wearing a slipper.

Playful, dynamic, and authentic - beyond fulfilling your style needs - this is a shoe that will have a little something to teach you. Even more reason to gift it to a loved one or even yourself.

In the spirit of generosity, we’re sharing some accessories you can pair with this updated classic:

Make the featherlight cap your staple for morning jogs or for simply enjoying some fun in the sun.

Travelling doesn’t have to be a dull affair when you have this hand luggageon your arm. After all, who doesn’t enjoy a bit of airport drip?

Complete the look with a Nike heritage moon bag that works with everything - from shorts to trousers to sweatpants for those off-duty days.
