The Nike Blazer has enjoyed a huge resurgence in the last year or so and with so many fresh releases dropping left and right, it’s about time the youngsters got another GS colorway all to themselves. This latest Nike Blazer High features a very unique look. The shoe sports a solid white upper that is covered by a simple perforation pattern and the Swoosh and side mudguard are constructed from an iridescent lenticular material. The color scheme is then rounded out by an orange lining and tongue piping with additional orange branding on the upper heel. These have already hit select Nike retailers, so it might be time to reward the kids with a nice end of school present.

The other Custom Series release is a breathtaking Nike Blazer SB Elite “Grant Taylor”. Rounding out this group is the Nike Dunk SB Hi that looks an awful lot like the cancelled Heaven’s Gate send-up. Set to drop in a couple weeks, these are available now at some Nike SB retailers.

Earlier in the week, Beijing based kenlu help break the story on this years “Year of…” sneaker from Nike (the Nike Air Max 1 Year of the Ox). Since, we have learned that a second sneaker will also be released as part of the pack. As we’ve said earlier in the week, more and more sneaker companies are doing a special China shoe to celebrate the “Year of…” story around Chinese New Year’s but every sneaker head knows Nike was the first sneaker company to celebrate this occasion and it all started with the “Year of…” Nike Air Force 1’s which continued up through the Nike Air Force 1 Low”Year of the Dog”. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Chinese Animal Zodiac you can read up on it here.

For this Nike Blazer Premium “Year of the Ox”, the treatment is the same as the Nike Air Max 1 which takes inspiration from the Chinese Revolution and the military uniforms that were worn during that period, the 1960’s through the 1970’s. On the Nike Air Max 1’s tongue there is a phase written in Chinese characters which translates to “perseverance” or “hard work”. The same is probably applied to the Nike Blazer as well but is not seen from the photos available currently. The heel tab of the Nike Blazer gets the same graphic of the Ox on a raised surface which is also inspired by the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Both pairs will be released in Asia early January 2009.
