As the autumn leaves settle, Drift House is gearing up to launch something truly iconic - The Nike SB Blazer Mid GT University Gold. This isn’t just another shoe release; it’s a narrative in footwear form, weaving together the essence of supercar culture with the street cred of skateboarding.
The Grant Taylor Legacy
Grant Taylor is no ordinary skateboarder. With an ability to shift from zero-to-epic in a heartbeat, he’s a force to be reckoned with on the skate ramp. It’s only fitting that his Blazer Mid collection would embody that same energy and finesse. Picture this: a muscle car roaring to life, raw power combined with precision engineering. That's the sensation Grant brings to a session, and this shoe reflects just that.
Design & Aesthetics
Starting with a full University Gold suede upper, the shoe immediately commands attention. The denim Swoosh serve as a bold statement, while the debossed “98” on the back heel subtly nods to another Southerner known for speed. It’s these intricate details that make this collection stand out.
Underneath, the co-branded logos echo the sleek stickers found on Grant’s favorite American supercars. And if you think the exterior is impressive, the interior boasts tonal details, a mesh tongue, liner, denim heel, and a white sign-off by Grant himself.
More than Just a Shoe
The GT tongue tags and dual lace options aren’t mere design choices; they’re emblematic of Grant’s personal touch. It’s a custom take on an era that has defined street and skate culture for decades.
At Drift House, we believe in celebrating icons and their stories. The Nike SB Blazer Mid GT University Gold isn’t just a shoe; it’s a testament to Grant Taylor’s passion, craft, and the legacy he continues to build. Available now here!
