The new Cortez is modeled after Bill Bowerman’s 1972 design. It echoes the original model’s retro look and iconic slope from the upper to the sole. The herringbone outsole provides excellent traction to keep little ones stable.
Feel the Quality
The Cortez was made to keep growing feet feeling comfortable and protected. Though it’s made with tough nylon, it’s packed with cushioning and lightweight materials for easy wear. Its iconic style is sure to stand out from the crowd — especially when kids wear it with a fresh Nike Fleece Hoodie.
Kids need a shoe that’s comfortable and holds up well. Get kicks that are going to last all season while maintaining their classic look, performance capabilities, and street cred — even for kiddos. Pair with light denim, sweats, or even skirts for a retro look everyone will love.
Enjoy Retro Style
The Cortez fits everyone's casual style, no matter how picky. The Nike Swoosh boldly marks each side of the shoe to make it undeniably classic. Available in sizes from toddler Cortez to grade school Cortez, each model is made to support the unique needs of growing feet.
The toddler sizes have a higher slope to make room for new walkers, plus velcro for easy on and off. Give toddlers a matching Nike T-shirt and shorts set and they’ll be ready to go out and take the playground by storm. Meanwhile, the preschool sizes have a slimmer shape that conforms to the changes kids’ feet experience as they grow. The grade school shoe introduces laces with all the perks of an adult shoe, just on a smaller scale.
No matter what size you’re shopping for, kick these kicks up a notch with a number of classics from Nike's collection. Shop Nike clothing and accessories to stock your little one's wardrobe for all occasions.
