About the Nike Blazer High

The Nike Blazer debuted in 1972 as a basketball shoe and evolved into one of Nike's most enduring lifestyle silhouettes. The 2009 WMNS "Beetle" pack was a limited-edition release that applied nature-inspired embroidery to the Blazer High's classic high-top form — making it a standout among Nike collectors and vintage sneaker enthusiasts. The Hercules Beetle tongue graphic is the defining detail of this release.
