The Nike Cortez is in the midst of its 50th anniversary. In addition to tapping a number of high-profile of collaborators for special editions, the vintage running sneaker has maintained a steady flow of general releases.

Recently, the Forrest Gump-approved silhouette emerged in a relatively simple “White/Black” ensemble. “Light Photo Blue” animates the strip on the iconic serrated sole unit, as well as the “NIKE” branding on the sock-liner. The straightforward take on the 50-year-old model is set to lead the way for an updated iteration of the pair for next year, aptly dubbed the Cortez ’23.

Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
