Nike Blazer Mid 77 vs Converse Chuck 70 High Top Sneakers

[@ericpitt3876]

1974, I was 8 and had my first pair of Black Converse High Tops - I was King of the world. Wore them until they both had holes in the soles. I would put notebook paper in them in order to keep on wearing them, if my mom discovered holes in my socks when doing laundry that would have been the end of my beloved Cons. Walking home from school one day my Mom pulls up and I get in the car, she had just been at the school as they had called concerned that I needed shoes. I simply didn't want to let go of my favorite shoes. Next morning I woke up and there were a brand new pair of Black High Top Converse next to my bed. I cried, they had thrown my old ones away.

I’d argue neither of the shoes are made for comfort. It’s a more style driven agenda. They both have little sole cushioning

[@HarryHas]

Yeah, I agree with you. There are a load more better options for comfort. These are probably lowest down out of all my sneakers. The cushioning is far better still in the converse IMO though

[@brandonbennett4615]

I won't said Blazer are hyped up, there not on the same level nor playing field of the Nike Dunks. But I do agreed the Converse has more versatile due it's more slimmer appearance. If anything the 77 Vintage Blazer Low is the way to go if your going to rock with the Blazer.

[@vhedae]

i personally prefer the look of the blazer, and i prefer the regular all-star chuck taylor i just like the look of the 70 but still amazing shoes

[@TheSored]

I personally like Converse's style more, I find it a bit less streetwear. Anyways, despite I like both of them a lot, I cannot wear the Blazer because they're a bit too tight at the front part for me. I like this "VS" format video, another one including the Vans Old Skool might be really interesting. Thanks for the video and enjoy the weekend mate!

[@HarryHas]

thanks mate. I really enjoy making these kind of videos so that’s good to hear. I don’t wear the vans old skool these days I’m afraid but keep the suggestions coming 👍🙏

In terms of versatility, the blazer mids in coconut milk are an off white alternative that may be a touch easier to style as it's unicolor all the way around. Great video as always!

[@eqbert]

I own blazers and your feet will get use to uncomfortable long walks, You can unlace 2 - 4 levels and loose every level and saggy lace the shoe (Hanging short untied lace) which makes it very easy to put on, and won't fall off easily. Blazers are super easy to clean, super durable, it is leather but they do not get creases, they get small shape deformations which is very cool. The sole and front part of the shoes are super durable, they don't get scratches or wear offs, just dirt and dust stains. Plus they look cool.

[@menubguyzz1408]

Thanks man, atleast someone from the fashion community did the most tough competition. Really u are making it easy for us and tough for your competitors. Much love ❤️

[@tararobles8670]

Chuck 70s are just an overall classic. They are way more comfortable than blazers and the regular chuck Taylor shoe. Super versatile and chucks can go with any and everything. I own about 7 pairs and I’ll continue to purchase chuck 70s.

[@jhalilxvii]

Personally I'd roll with the Chucks, and that's not because I have anything against the Blazers. It's the fact that nowadays when I go searching for shoes, I look more for versatility and I don't feel like the Blazers can offer me that. With the Converse it feels easy to experiment with different styles all while being able to stick to my own.

[@Chrisjonpage]

whoa i happen to have both of these, would say the 70 chuck insole is super cushy, and works well with most of my wardrobe but I have a soft spot for retro nikes! I think the converse would win just in terms of range of use.

When it comes to canvas shoes, like chucks or vans, and shoes that aren't canvas but keep the same vibe like the blazers or air force ones, I actually prefer the beat up kinda dirty look, just fits the vibe :)

[@ryanhall4583]

I feel like id rather grab the chucks or even pf fliers as a high top because of breathability and style tbh, but prefer the nike blazer as a low top. Mostly because with the low top nike its less restrictive but also still has the thickness and durability of the leather/padding. all are great shoes that have a place for a myriad of styles

@Jon Doe both shoes are flat. I would say that the chuck 70 is slight bit more cushioned than the mid77. Mid77 is all about aesthetic tbh. If not for that good-looking swoosh logo, I wouldn’t buy it 😂

I wear the blazers for work, which orginal did wear converses but I role my ankles inwards which I can do with the converse, but with the blazers it's basically impossible because of the thickness around the ankle and restictness which has really helped my feet from hurting a whole lot less because I'm not standing on the side of foot anymore

[@thestarseeker8196]

Have not tried 70’s, but absolutely hated the Chucks I did try. One pair literally fell apart while I was walking one day. Currently wearing a pair of Blazer mids, coincidentally. Comfort is gonna vary a bit by the release, but I’ve grown to love the shoe. I’m also a wide footer and can attest that it does look narrow, but the interior is actually just pretty average; not wide, not narrow. It’s a great shoe. Plus, there’s so many more colorway options.
