Nike Vintage Nylon Cortez

March 28th, 2008

Nike’s Cortez model was created by the teamwork of Nike, Blue Ribbon Sports and a Japanese firm named Onitsuka Tiger. Bill Bowerman, the co-founder of Nike said that he had developed the Cortez by taking apart two pairs of the Onitsuka Tigers. Ever since then the Cortez became famous especially in the L.A. district. The Cortez model has been brought back in several color-ways, and now Nike has decided to bring back 4 additional color-ways. If you visit Finishline you can expect to see a Green/Blue/White, a Vivid Blue/Black/White, a Anthracite/Pilgrim/White, and a Varsity Red / Deep Garnet color-way. Each pair is selling for $80 now at Finishline.
