We’ve seen a Free-soled and Flywire-equipped update, but what would George Costanza think of the latest upgrade to his beloved Nike Cortez? Check out this sample pair of Nike Cortez x Air Max runners, a combination of the beloved nylon and suede upper from the 1972 waffle-bottomed classic, paired with a pre-yellowed take on 1987’s Air Max 1 sole. These are sort of like a quick history lesson in pre-1990s Nike running but will purists be willing to embrace Nike Sportswear’s latest hybrid creation? Perhaps a more relevant question would be one regarding this model’s release, so be sure to stick with Sneaker News to see if the Nike Cortez x Air Max 1 ever hits store shelves. via Far Away Life
