The MOST POPULAR skate shoe? Nike Blazer Mid Review! 

The fact your son likes skating too is such a blessing man

These shoes have been hanging around since the 70’s. Glad to see basketball wasn’t it’s only purpose.

i really miss being able to buy dunks for cheap, the dunk mid was my favorite skate shoe back in 2010-2013. I recently returned to skating and found dunks have been botted to death, so I just buy replicas and they skate just the same, with the functional zoom units

Great to see your son progressing, he's in good hands. Now I got to find a pair of Blazers to add to my already well stocked supply of shoes.

Congrats on being able to bond with your son while skateboarding !

Thanks for being the one truly reliable skate reviewer on youtube Ben. You are the undeniable GOAT. Keep it up.

i loved the nike dunk low ones Aurélien Giraud was wearing at the Olympics today

Good to see a shoe review from Ben, even if I'm not into Blazers.

Thank you for making shoe reviews, I bought Blazer lows as my 1st skate shoes and loved them. They lasted me for over a year, though I don't skate as often as I would like to.

I totally love your videos and that you're so technical. Always very informative. Cool that you're ripping it with your son. Must feel great.

watch you skating with your son made me get so excited to go skate and evolve at it (im 18 now). i wish my dad teatched me how to skate like you are doing with your child. you channel's the best, much love from Brasil :^D

Love your reviews-honest straight up reviews!!! Thank you Ben!

Your boy must be the coolest kid in school... Having a Dad and an Uncle that are ProSkaters.

your son's back 5-0 slappy thing at 9:39 was soooo good I'm hyped to see him feeling good in front of the camera

I enjoy watching your son progress, that must be awesome to share skating w him

you need to do tyshawn mids next as a competitor. i hear theyre the most durable skate shoe on the market right now

My son and I skate together and he loves blazers. He's been wanting me to try some so bad and I think I will now. Man your son is killing it btw.

Hahahah being British that “poofy” bit made me laugh out loud😂😂

Ben, you’re getting better man! Loved the frontside flip out of the bank/ quarter thing. Oh, and the blazer rules so hard!!!! I’m not one to keep shoes after I skate them, but I have kept these white blazers with the gum bottom (Nike iso orange label ones) only because I thought they were the most comfortable, most stylish shoe ever. Oh, and there’s this clip of lance in them skating the tootsie roll curbs… straight magic.

really proud of you teaching your son to skateboard

So nice to see you skating with your son! looking forward to skate with my son, hes just 1,5 years now but hopefully i can get him into skateboarding

Thanks for the review & Love the father son skate session bro! 👍🏻

Loves ur video one of my favorite youtubers for review!

Here I go about to go buy shoes I don't need again. Great review Ben 👏.

Damn, seeing you skate with your kid is awesome man. Seriously wholesome shit. I can only hope my kid is as rad as yours

Your little dude has progressed so much! Hes gonna be a ripper soon.

Mini ramp skating looking good Ben! I see some new tricks in the bag there. Very nice.

It's such a shame that shoe design has been getting worse in skating. I'd love to skate Kostons first Nike shoe forever but I just default to Blazers now because they're always readily available in nice colours, durable and easy to get

Rad to see your son progressing so much!

Blazers are definitely one of the best vulc shoes out there. I enjoyed the Adidas Superstar ADV as well. I mainly like cupsole shoes, but both the blazer and superstar are amazing shoes. Dunks, Air force 2's, and even lakai telfords are awesome cupsole shoes

Family fun time vids nice to see folks just enjoying themselves! ✌

Thank you ben this edit was sick made it about the little one. Gonna try a pair and see what's

Thanks for the video. I’ve only ever bought Vans and have been eyeing a pair of these wondering if I should try them. My shoes usually wear through on the bottom of my front foot too, so helpful detail from you there. Very cool to see you skating with your son! I’m skating with my youngest this summer too and really happy about it. Looks like you are skating the same park as Andy Anderson. Ever skate with him?

Your son is improving!!!

Your boy is progressing really well eh, must be an awesome feeling for you 😊

Mr Degros. As happy for you as I am that you're cured of your truck madness I was wondering if you'd approach the topic of risers on lower truck like Thunders &/or Ventures. In my experiance the already short tail feels shorter leading to a higher likelihood of ghost pop. Maybe it's just me.....

please keep posting videos you keep me motivate

Got married in blazers. My favorite all time shoe.

Love seeing you skate with your son, and how you give off Bob Ross vibes for skateboarding 😁😁

Janoski’s Vulcan and my fav shoes by far, the new Nike Shane o Neill ones look very similar and on my list to buy soon

This is one of the most inspirated vídeos i seen in your channel just cuz you skate with your son i even didnt know that he skate lol but is very good taking in count is age :D such a great vides on this one :)

The best shoe I ever had was Globe's Chet Tomson shoe. Not only was the shoe incredibly supportive and comfortable, it didn't wear out from kick flips ect. Plus, and this was a huge one for me, it protected the laces by the shoe's tongue. I would go through shoe laces like crazy.

Yes HOT! The old (pre GT) lows had a perforated panel on the side that helped!

I bought a pair the other day. For me a bit stiff and lack of board feel for me but only had em for a day, if you say once broken in they a pretty decent. Then I'll look forward to skating these.

being able to skate with your dad has to be so awesome.

Man, how cool is it as a kid to have a dad skate with you?

They run hot for sure. I am skating them right now too. I bought them last year and never liked them, starting skating them last week again. After breaking them in they are amazing.

Can't wait for the day that I can skate with my son.

I love the blazers. I’m skating the black and white pair now and I just ordered another pair.

Hope to see you review tiagos numeric 1010. Most comfortable shoe I’ve ever skated 👌🏼👌🏼

Please do a review on April skateboards, I’ve been trying to make my decision on getting one and I want to see what you think about it!

Im an older guy who skates transition and I also love these shoes. Im just the opposite though. The mids are my favorite because they do feel more secure and the lows are my second favorite. Im on my second pair of mid and I have a pair of lows I alternate with. The shoes feel great and last forever.

We all appreciate the effort and work you put into your videos Ben!!

I'm 33 and have skated every brand of shoes out there. I agree with everything Ben said. These are my favorite skates shoes of all time.

Your lad has improved so much!!!

I love the mids they’re the best Nike shoe in my opinion. Everytime never disappoints me

I tried the GT blazer lows a few years back and they must just not be the right shoe for my foot, felt like my foot moved around too much and couldn't get them to feel good. I put zero tightness on my laces which Im sure makes a difference on some shoe, but I do love the way Lance looks in these

It makes sense it looks really good and skates fairly well!

Thank you Ben great review

Good seeing your videos when it’s raining and i can’t skate.

Hey Ben you should try out Spitfire formula four classics in 56mm. They're my favorite wheels to skate and I'd be curious to hear your opinion on a wheel that is much larger than what you're comfortable skating with

like these blazers. were can i find a pair?

janoskis have always been my favorite shoes for skating but ill been loving the shanes

I'm not skating them at the moment but I've had 3 pairs there honestly the most well rounded best shoe I've skated I just like trying new things and styles but they are honestly the best

Hey Ben, first off Iove your vids. obviously. I have a question that my skateshop buddies couldnt answer, but I think you might be able to: assuming my web skateshop does provide measurements for a deck´s width, length, wheelbase and the length of nose/tail; can you somehow tell how much flat space there is between the back bolts and where the tail starts by knowing these measurements? For example: one of my decks has got a length of 32", wheelbase 14.25" and the tail is 6.5" - overall the kick is relatively steep. my other deck is 32.125" long, also has 14.25" wheelbase and the tail is 6.75" - the kick is rather mellow, there are more fingers of flat between the bolts and the tail. the concave for both is supposed to be medium. I would rather have only very little flat space between the bolts and the tail, but my skateshop cannot help me with that and my local skateshop doesnt have decks the size I want. the next deck I´d like to buy is 32.5" long, 14.75" wheelbase, 6.5" tail. do you think this will have a steep or mellow kick? by the way its only because of you that I got so knowledgeable and kinda obsessed with these things :D thank you! I want to buy indy 149, but they shorten the wheelbase, and because of you I know that a deck with too much flat between bolts and tail + indys wouldnt be a good setup. please help me sensei :P

I skated the Addidas version of this shoe and they were AMAZING

Your son is getting so good as well!! You have similar style!

How do you find wearing out the lower half of the outsole? I used to get so frustrated when that happened, it always makes shoes blow out so quickly for me. It doesn’t seem to have effected your blazers though!!

Loved the father son skate session

I'd love to get your opinion of the Adidas Tyshawn Mid compared to the Blazer Mid. I personally love skating both shoes.

Actually so hard to pick another shoes to buy other than a blazer nowadays , they Just are so good

I just posted my first skateboard video (black label skateboard set up) . Thanks Ben for the needed inspiration 🤟🏻

actually just got my pair . like them allot. do you still have yours?

If you like these I'd also reccomend the same shoe but the premium version, they are a little ''softer'' and have even better board feel and flick, are also a tiny but more durable, but they are hotter; so they are great in a little bit colder weathers

Thanks for your insights Ben! I don't get how you guys, from north america, are skating nike, adidas, new balance and maybe some idk and not the emerica, dc, dgk, ethnies, és, lakai etc. In Europ, more and more are going for nike (because of insta etc), but it still mainly skateshoes. Edit: the one I forget was converse of course.

First pair of vulc i had is Jamie Foy new balance !! Those shoes are amazing but i prefer cup sole in general because primo hurt my feet but i will get another pair for sure.

Review the Polar Big Boys or 93's!

Love skating blazers, only bad part is the sole separates on my pairs as soon as they have perfectly broken in

Nike does know how to glue and vulcanize shoes, Vans unfortunately does not. 🤷🏻 I can tell you why you don't get holes in the side of the shoe, because you scoop the ollie's the exact same way I do, with the very front of your shoe.

The Blazer low pro GTs been my favorite. If you like the regular lows, I think you’ll love the pro GTs.

they're well built but I had trouble putting them on constantly. they're like boots

Your son has been killing it

Would love to see the Etnies Veer they got those Michelin tire as a sole

I got the suede deconstructed ones I’m using once my Nyah’s go

I have normal Nike Blazer Suede not SB and they are so good. But I bought rowans pro now and I think must get used to it.

I love skating Blazer mids. Luckily am able to get them at a very low price since I live in Oregon (Nike location).

One Love skateshop By Metrotown skatepark is going to be building an indoor park in surrey. They are looking for help from people who can build ramps and stuff.

ben do you like the original blazer low or the GT version?

Hi, cool clips with your son. Can you please do a review about the Vans Kyle Walker Pro model? I would be verry interested.

I'm in the process of editing a fat skater man review of these the J1's and the SB dunks. You beat me to it. You are right about lacing up, takes forever haha 🤣

As for price, You bought the blazer premium colourway (not sure why those are 145) but the normal colour-ways of sb mids are about $35 cheaper.

Just skated my first pair of blazers. Loved them, but had the opposite experience in terms of wear. Blew through mine much faster than most other bikes.

that seylynn bowl sesh looked sick!! canadian af

what’s the specific color-way of these called? 👀🔥

Came for the shoe review. Stayed for the wholesome father son sesh. #GOALS

You and your son shred! Just copped a pair, they fit like a glove, but take forever to put on! guess im sleeping in these bad boys

I love them! As long as their suede I’m in!

You should do a review on Emerica shoes. They are my favorite shoes I have ever skated.

those looik really cool wikth the blac swoosh and the black wear on the sole

Can/would you review mindys hollows?
