Nike and Netflix’s Stranger Things recently revealed their third collaborative collection, consisting of the Cortez and Tailwind 79, which premiered at this year’s Comic-Con. Adding onto the collection, we now receive an initial glance at the Blazer Mid silhouette from the series’ “Upside Down” collection. Retaining the subtle off-white colorway with tonal Swooshes and heel tabs, the sneaker includes custom branded tags and insoles with loads of references to show’s third season. The Blazer Mid also incorporates hidden details like a coded message underneath the insole, along with heat reactive materials on the upper that can be burned off to reveal a royal blue layer.

Take a closer look at the co-branded footwear below, courtesy of @cran, and check back for additional release information.

In case you missed it, be sure to also look at fan footage of the famous Starcourt Mall set from this season.
