Pastel Patchwork Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Nike SB Blazer Mid PRM Gets a Lilac Colorway Design

— August 17, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike SB launches a new iteration of the SB Blazer Mid PRM sneaker model in a lilac colorway palette this season. The soft tones are made with a blend of materials and applied in a patchwork construction across the upper. Notably, the sneaker breaks up the Swoosh emblem by the lateral side of the shoe for a disjointed look.

The medial side also features a Swoosh motif in a suede to leather look. The lilac hue can be seen all throughout the silhouette that boasts a slightly dyed look by the upper and the midsole base. It is then rounded out by a rubber outsole foundation for traction, with the laces and tongue in the same tonal look.
