Sub Pop Records, a renowned Seattle-based record label, gained recognition for popularizing grunge rock and signing influential bands such as Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Tad during the 1980s. Paying homage to the label's impressive musical heritage, the Nike SB Blazer Elite 'Sub Pop' shoe encapsulates its punk spirit through a striking high-top design. Unveiled in June 2009, this sneaker features a vibrant Zest leather upper paired with a Black suede toe box. The tongue, heel counter, and insole proudly showcase Sub Pop logos while stars on the ankles add a finishing touch to the overall aesthetic. As a subtle tribute to the shoe's association with Sub Pop, an embroidered 'SP780' can be found along the back of the heel, representing its catalog number.
