The Nike Cortez has expanded from its synonymous early 70s tooling throughout the last half of 2023, appearing in heavy suede outfits and accompanying collections like “NAI-KE” and the 2023 Doernbecher collection. Recently, the longest-running model in the Beaverton brand’s history has chosen to mirror its green scale palette with a much darker hue.

Complementing the model’s past “Chlorophyll” and “Oregon Fir” efforts, the low-top trim renders a slightly dimmer shade of green throughout the clad-suede real estate. While a more tamed construction outfits the upper sidewalls, a much more messy treatment ascertains the mudguard and quarter alongside the heel counter and tab. Elsewhere, a rare amount of navy enters the fold at the cursive Nike tongue tabs before the profile swoosh, midsole and branded tabs achieve a complementary collection of “Sail” accents.

The Nike Cortez “Vintage Green/Sail” is currently available via the store list below for a retail price of $90. In the meantime, the pair can be seen in detailed imagery ahead.

In other news, the Jordan 14 “Black/White” releases on Wednesday, December 20th.
