Nike CortezMidnight Navy

Product Description

Released in 1972, the Nike Cortez was the first track shoe that Nike ever unveiled. It has since been introduced in an array of different colorways with the Nike Cortez Midnight Navy being one of the more recent additions to the collection.

The leather upper on this particular Cortez was done up in a midnight blue color that worked well with the bright-white Swooshes, the white laces, and the mostly white midsole. It also featured a pop of aqua on the midsole that matched the aqua used to create the Nike branding on the back.

But the best part about this Cortez was that, while it had a more modern look thanks to the materials that were used to make it, it also had a vintage feel since it contained many of the same elements as the original Cortez. The Nike Cortez Midnight Navy was released on May 18, 2023, and it initially retailed for $85.
