It’s always nice to see one of the shoes that you grew up with many years later in your adult life. It brings back a certain sense of nostalgia that anyone who has never been a sneakerhead could probably never completely understand. That is also one of the most beautiful things about being a sneakerhead though, is that we understand so well exactly why we love our sneakers so much but it is pretty hard to explain to anyone else. Today we are going to be taking a look at one of those classic shoes that is back again, this is the new Nike Cortez Nylon in Birch Brown and Voltage Cherry.

We have to say that nylon is a really good fit for these shoes and the colorway that has been used here is really nice as well. The voltage cherry does a really good job at accenting the birch brown.

One of the things that we like the best about Nike is that they have a whole bunch of shoes that are true and defined classics. Many of these shoes are still releasing today which is a great thing and says a lot about them being able to prove the test of time. Of course there are the shoes like the Nike Air Force 1 but there are some even more classic shoes that exist out there. One of those shoes would of course be the Nike Cortez and we are going to be looking at the newest one today. This is the new Nike Cortez Nylon Brown Kelp and Voltage Cherry.

This one will feature an upper that is made out of a mixture of both suede and nylon with a leather swoosh being featured on the side. Some hits of court blue will also appear on the midsole.

Normally, average sneakerheads are not interested in the hybrid, but that being said it is always good to at least give something new a chance once in a while. While most people don’t like the hybrids because they feel that their favorite sneakers are being ruined sometimes you can get something good as a result. When you take two sneakers and mash them together, you often end up with something that is the best of both worlds. Today we are going to looking at a shoe that is attempting that, this is the new Nike Cortez x Air Max Sample.

This one takes the classic nylon upper from the Nike Cortez and sticks it on top of a pre-yellowed Air Max 1 sole. It may seem like a strange combination but it could work. Let’s wait and see if these ones actually ever get released.

Nike has created the first full length midsole integrated in its running shoe when the hybrid Cortez was developed. The Cortez changed running since 1972 as it never missed a season. Its confident technology has made a promising record and was proven excellent when it won races. It was Nike’s first shoe and first hybrid, the Cortez is a creation of mixed DNA. After continuous releases, this year’s most recent Nike Cortez is up in a color-up that resembles elegance, velvet brown/metallic bronze.

It’s not a thing for Cortez to appear in a baroque style of colorway. The simple touch-up applied is enough to make a show down in fact it is its performance that counts. This latest pair commits velvet brown nylon upper with leather heel tab and suede toe cap. It earns accent from the elegance of metallic brown Swoosh and midsole. Metallic bronze Nike branding appears on the tongue and rear while brown interior lining and shoe laces give a fair and just dope appearance.

There are certain sneakers out there that we remember as classics because of the way their styles have continued to be current today and there are other shoes that we regard as classics even though they are not current, but their designs are just so timeless. Whatever reason a shoe has to be regarded as a classic is completely irrelevant the important thing is that it is in the first place. Today we are going to look at a new colorway of a shoe that people have loved for many decades now, this is the new Nike Cortez Nylon in granite and white.

Although nylon was not the original material that was chosen for the upper of the Nike Cortez it has still been around for a long time now. We think that the granite colorway that has been used here looks very nice especially paired with the white.

It is funny to see how the styles change over the years and what shoes remain classic and which ones will just fade into obscurity. It is also interesting to think about the shoes that still remain as classics today and if they had never been popular back in the day would they still sell today as all new models. One of the shoes that makes us start to think that way is the Nike Cortez. We have seen many different versions of it over the years and we are going to take a look at a new one today. This is the new Nike Cortez Nylon in this new spice and white colorway.

The upper here will be a great mixture of both suede and nylon that will be predominantly spice which is an orange sort of color. This will be contrasted by the color white which looks great.

Regardless of whether or not you have a date for Valentine’s Day or not, February 14th can still be a great day for you, because there are a ton of nice sneaker releases made especially for that day and there is one new one that has just popped up on our radar that will be releasing on the day itself. This is the new Nike Tiger Cortez that is in honor of the upcoming Year of the Tiger. These shoes will feature the Chinese characters for “tiger” and “peace” on the tongues. The shoe is so nice that it even features special packaging to remind you of just how special it really is. The box opens with a five finger death grip which just might be worth the price admission by itself. These are definitely a special pair of shoes that you won’t be able to afford to miss if you call yourself a real sneakerhead.
