Okay, so I’ve been wanting to get my hands on a pair of Off-White Blazers for a while now. I finally pulled the trigger and copped a pair.
I did a ton of research before buying them. I read through a bunch of guides and watched a lot of videos to make sure I knew what to look for in terms of flaws on replica pairs. I think it was one guide that talked about the Nike x Off-White Blazer OG, and how to spot fakes.
Once I got them, the first thing I did was try them on. I wanted to make sure they fit right. I tried them on and walked around the house a bit. They felt a little snug at first, but after a while, they started to loosen up. I moved my shoulders around a lot, you know, just to see how they felt. If they were pulling too much, I would have to size up or return it, but they were cool.
After wearing them for a few days, I noticed they started to get dirty. It’s crazy, these things are like dirt magnets! No matter how careful I was, they always seemed to have some smudges on them. I remembered reading something about how important it is to have the right cleaning kit for these, so I ordered one online.
While I was waiting for the cleaning kit to arrive, I did a little more digging online about the history of the Blazers. I knew they were originally a basketball shoe, but I was surprised to learn just how popular they’ve become in the streetwear scene.
Cleaning day
- Waited for the cleaning kit to arrive.
- Followed the instructions on the cleaning kit carefully.
- Scrubbed the shoes gently.
- Rinsed them off with water.
- Let them air dry.
They looked brand new after I cleaned them! I was so happy with how they turned out. Now I’m just trying to keep them clean for as long as possible. We’ll see how long that lasts.
