Continuing to celebrate the iconic Cortez silhouette’s 45th birthday, Nike has just dropped a Sail/Blue Jay colorway. This Classic Cortez Leather SE edition sees the Swoosh, back heel tab and section of the midsole bathed in the “Blue Jay” blue while a clean Sail covers the rest of the upper sitting atop a grooved outsole. Fans of the Air Max 90 Laser Blue will find that this iteration of the Cortez will fit in perfectly with their taste.

You can pick up the Nike Classic Cortez Leather SE “Blue Jay” now at select retailers like Foot District for €90 EUR which is approximately $103 USD. Nike also recently gave the Cortez a Flyknit makeover.
