This silhouette is available at SVD in a wide variety of colors and materials.

White, red, black, pink, made of leather or nylon...the truth is that the Nike Cortez, both for men and women, are renowned for being one of the most adaptable in the history of the Oregon based brand. Born from the high demand running shoes for non-professional athletes, this silhouette has been able to adapt to constant changes to suit runners of various generations. Today, the Cortez is a cult shoe that has appeared in lyrics of songs from the likes of Kendrick Lamar, as well as in films like Forrest Gump, and has graced the feet of the late, great Whitney Houston during her famous Super Bowl half-time performance.
