Nike’s Cortez model continues 45 years strong by reminiscing about the Swoosh’s beginning. In addition to “LBC” and “Compton” colorways, we’ll soon see an Oregon-inspired colorway of the model. The iconic Cortez is coated in nylon material which is covered in a dominant ochre coloring throughout. “Gorge Green” serves as its complement via each lateral and medial Swoosh, midsole stripe and heel tab.

The Nike Cortez “Oregon” will launch on June 1 for $80 USD at select Nike Sportswear retailers and nike.com.
