Nike SB has long held the spotlight in skateboarding with its collaborations with top-tier skaters and innovative designs tailored to the sport's demands. Having Grant Taylor on board for over a decade has been one of the driving forces behind the line's consistent evolution. Over the years, Taylor has been an exceptional ambassador for Nike SB and provided invaluable insights to shape and refine the SB Zoom Blazer Mid for skaters worldwide. Notably, in recent times, Taylor's passion for vintage automobiles has begun to paint a vivid picture on the Nike SB canvases, with multiple color renditions that echo his automotive affections.
This holiday season brings the Grant Taylor x Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid GT in the captivating University Gold shade. Distinct from its “Black” counterpart, this iteration wraps itself in a plush suede, with the university gold hue dominating its profile. Complementing this radiant backdrop is the blue denim that delicately forms the Swoosh and a heel tab featuring Grant Taylor's mark. Notable embellishments include a "98" logo close to the lateral heel and a tongue tag adorned with "GT" text. The twin references are an ode to Grant's initials and Grand Tourer (GT) vehicles. The base sports a Zoom Air-cushioned midsole in a pristine white, accompanied by a matching rubber outsole.
The Grant Taylor x Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid Pro GT University Gold will release on October 23, 2023 through Nike SB skate shops and potentially via Nike online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $100.
