Product Description
As the Nike Cortez celebrated its 45th Anniversary in 2017, Nike payed homage to Bill Bowerman's first product test, Kenny Moore with a special collection. Known as the "Broken Foot" edition, this Nike Classic Cortez draws inspiration from the blue sneaker Moore broke his right foot in while running in 1985. This prompted Bowerman to rip the sneaker apart and construct a new model, one built for his standards with superior cushioning and support. Coming in a varsity royal and sail colorway, this pair sports a full premium suede upper with a nylon tongue, leather Swoosh on the sides, debossed heel branding and a custom printed sockliner of Moore's X-ray from his fracture. Their release date was August 25th, 2017. They retailed for $100 and were available exclusively in men's sizing. Another must-have Nike Cortez, this pair gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "blue suede shoes." If you're interested in adding a pair to your collection, hit up the marketplace and buy them. Those who have a pair to sell can do so online as well.
