Leather Kilties Accessorize The Nike Cortez “Racing Rabbits”

Aside from a collaborative offering with sacai and Union earlier in the year, not much has come from the Nike Cortez on an inline front. That is, however, beginning to change, as the classic runner has appeared in both a “White/Black” and Georgetown-reminiscent colorway not long back. Another, the “Racing Rabbits,” has also just surfaced via official images, its look akin to that of more refined, sartorial footwear.

Unlike its collegiate-inspired counterpart, this pair is constructed almost entirely out of a tan leather. Said material wraps the upper from the toe through to the heel, complementing the darker browns that dress the kiltie that runs the length of the tongue. Lighter tones, such as White and Sail, mark adjacent accents like the Swoosh, laces, and midsole, while the sockliner — which features a set of racing rabbits — opts for a dark blue.

For a closer look at the Nike Cortez “Racing Rabbits,” check out the official images below. A release date has not yet been revealed, but it likely won’t be long before we see these on Nike.com and at select retailers.

In other news, the Dunk Low Orange Lobster is landing later this December.
