The Nike Cortez leather sneakers feature a reengineered durable upper to help prevent warping, creasing and scuffing. A wider toe box provides a more comfortable fit, and firmer side panels help keep the foot in place for a more stable feel. These sneakers have a durable foam midsole with iconic wedge insert and a herringbone outsole pattern pairs durable traction and heritage style. They are lace up and low top.
