One word: tradition. From heritage running to fashion phenom to movie star, the Cortez's retro appeal, sponge-soft midsole and see-saw detailing deliver decade after decade. This fresh take on the ubiquitous look goes big on vintage vibes with suede accents and throwback branding. Verde Green and Sail (a classic varsity color combo) keeps your style sporty, while the gum rubber outsole puts the cherry on the bottom.
