The Nike Cortez has been discontinued only to be brought back multiple times throughout its 52-year existence. Generations of sneakerheads have proven fond of the shoe’s iconic design and heritage, and given current fashion trends, it’s hard to imagine Nike doing away with the shoe at any point in the near or distant future.

Simply put; the Nike Cortez is an essential, and this “Midnight Navy” colorway does right by that claim. The shoes follow a simple color blocking scheme with white hits on the Swoosh, heel, and sole, letting “Midnight Navy” flood the base across nylon and suede.

All those looking to inject some Beaverton heritage into their seasonal rotations can pick up a pair now at nike.com for $80. See official images and shopping links below to guide your purchase.
