Brand new, with box, no lid. Price is firm. No trades. On the track since 1972, the Cortez is Bill Bowerman's first masterpiece, created to be lighter and more weatherproof than any other shoe. As classic as they come and more than 35 years later, Nike update the running-inspired Cortez model with full-grain leather uppers. The shoe sits atop an EVA midsole with a herringbone pattern and comes completed with a contrasting Swoosh overlay to the side wall.
