The LA powerhouse Undefeated is back with another strong collaboration, this time with honed lifestyle sneaker sector NikeLab. Their collaborative shoe this time around incorporates multiple aspects of Los Angeles culture and infuses it into the classic Cortez SP. Features of the collabo include an asymmetrical Swoosh layout (one single blue Swoosh on the inner left shoe only), “L” “A” debossing on the rear heels, laces with “POR VIDA” written on the tips, and lace locks donning the heritage of “Udftd ‘02.” Premium suede, high-grade nylon on the uppers, pebble leather, and a custom Undefeated leather footbed round out an overall clean pickup. Additionally, a coordinating hat with matching “LA” embroidery is releasing alongside the sneakers to further represent your city. Cop your pair when it drops on November 5.
