Summer is finally here, and there’s never been a better time to update your sneaker rotation. A perfect staple for SS24, the Nike Cortez ticks the boxes of retro style and optimal comfort, so you can enjoy a summer of effortless styling. Luckily for us, the Swoosh are treating us to a range of new palettes for the changing season, so we took them out for a spin to see what the hype is about!
Originally landing on the scene in the early 1970’s, the Cortez is one of the Swoosh cult classics that has truly stood the test of time. Created by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, the model was born with the priority of comfort in mind, adored by runners for its lightweight build. Who would have thought that over five decades later, the shoe would still be recognised and appreciated as a cultural icon? Adorned with a handful of design adjustments to bring the silhouette up to speed, the Cortez has never been a better lifestyle choice.
Flaunting re-engineered textiles for less annoying scuffs and more durability, the upper sports a widened toe area for ease with every step. Sturdier side panels ensure that your foot stays securely nestled on the move, whilst a reliable foam midsole provides unparalleled cushioning. Maintaining the distinctive OG essence, suede hits keep things classic, for that vintage steez that we all know and love.
