The oldest colour arrangement the Blazer has is red on white, dating to the basketball pairs of the 1970s, and the skate version wears it without modification. The GT is the reinforced low-top SB build rather than a lifestyle retro, so the white upper is backed with the reinforcement that skating demands and the sole is set up for grip and board feel. University red covers the Swoosh and the branding and nothing else.
The release date was May 14, 2019 at $75, which places it at the accessible end of the SB Blazer range. Skateboarders took to the Blazer on their own in the late 1970s, long before Nike built a version for them, and the low cut is the shape that stuck.
