Nike is poised to drop another women's exclusive; this time, the timeless Nike Cortez is the palette of choice. A running shoe born in the 1970s that transitioned into an unmistakable symbol of street style, the Nike Cortez has managed to stay relevant for over 50 years. This new release arrives in a classic "Black White" colorway, a timeless duo that perfectly embodies the Cortez's enduring legacy and comes ahead of pairs like “Sail Iced Lilac.”
The Nike Cortez "Black White" comprises a trio of materials: suede, nylon, and leather, each contributing a different texture and visual interest. Suede panels occupy the toe, eyestays, and heel, while nylon provides a sleek and durable base, harmonizing with the black suede. The iconic Swoosh and the Nike branding on the tongue and heel tab shine in white, creating a striking contrast against the dark backdrop. To finish off, a white and black foam midsole and a grooved rubber outsole rests underfoot.
The Nike Cortez Black White W will release August 4, 2023, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in women's sizing, the retail price is set at $90.
