Nike By You Tap 3 NFL Stars To Rework the Blazer Mid '77 Cozi
are certainly no stranger to buffering their classic lifestyle models against the cold, and the is the latest in a long line of Swoosh sneakers that have received a winterised treatment. The Cozi recently popped up on Nike's By You customisation platform as well, and to celebrate its arrival, By You tapped superstars Ezekiel Elliott, Kyler Murray and Derrick Henry to put their own personal spin on it.
Elliott opted for the simplest look of the bunch, colouring the Cozi's insulated upper white and embellishing it with rich hits of Dallas Cowboys-style navy while also nodding to his jersey number (#21) on the inner half of the tongue. Murray went for a white upper as well, but added a digital detail to each foot's single Swoosh and opted to put text hits on the lateral heel and collar. The Cardinals' QB's 'Be Water', 'Formless' and 'Green Light' logos also appear on the inside of the tongue. Last but not least, Tennessee Titans star Henry went for a faded white and tan look on his pair. '2K King' is stamped on the inside of the tongue, a nod to Henry's monster 2020-21 campaign, in which he became just the eighth running back in NFL history to accumulate 2000 rushing yards in a single season.
If you're fond of Elliott, Murray or Henry's designs, you can scoop 'em on the Nike web store for $130 each. If you're more partial to creating your own, a full slate of customisation options is available as well.
