Nike Cortez Vintage Leather



In 1968 Nike and Onitsuka Tiger released Tiger Corsair, shortly after in 1972 it was re-released as the Cortez after the partnership between Nike and Onitsuka Tiger disintegrated.It featured total "toe to heel" cushioning, an innovation in training shoes for runners (at least in comparison to the thin-soled, rock-hard training shoes that predated the Corsair). This remake is of the original leather Cortez with a full leather upper, rubber reinforced toe unit, original cortez sole and classic "Swoosh".

The Nike Cortez Vintage Leather comes in three colorways and is available at Hanon.
