Modern Classic Look
With sleek, simple lines, the Nike Cortez is as stylish as it is comfortable. These recognizable sneakers come in flashy colors, showing off the Nike Swoosh complemented with matching accents in the thick rubber soles. Play with colors and patterns with the Premium line that offers versatility in style with its high-quality materials that truly take these shoes from day to night. The LX sneakers have cool, updated designs that ramp up your look and fit your individual personality. Keep it real and stay with the Classics for a timeless style that’s been going strong for decades.
While the Cortez maintains its own personality, new lines include new materials for a fresh take on a classic style. The Nylon offers a sportier look, while the Basic has a synthetic leather upper and a traditional overlay at the toe and heel for support.
Track Shoes for Everyday Wear
The Nike Cortez has a low-cut upper to allow for movement on the sidewalk, the dance floor, or the track. A herringbone sole provides superior traction. EVA midsoles are found in most styles to give ultimate support and comfort, and the Premium sports a plush foam cushion. When Bowerman initially designed these shoes, he wanted a lightweight, fitted, durable shoe that was comfortable and worthy to wear anywhere. The result was the Nike Cortez. Pair the shoes with an iconic hat, a Nike backpack, and a hoodie for a relaxed, everyday look.
