The Classic Cortez returns.

NikeLab is back with a new addition to the Cortez family: bringing together classic and contemporary taste, the Nike Cortez classic silhouette from 1972 has been modernized.
The sneaker is made out of a black neoprene upper and a big-toothed outsole; the perforated upper is paired with a suede touch and a Phylon sole. The leather sockliner gives the sneaker a luxurious feature, while the renewed sole highlights the innovation.
NikeLab Classic Cortez “Big Tooth” will be available on July 9th at NikeLab locations worldwide.
