In honour of the Nike Cortez’s 50th anniversary, Union Los Angeles have dropped two colorways on the iconic model. The uppers and midsoles have been reworked to deliver a newer, modern look, while crater foam cushioning at the midsole and Nike Grind traction have been added as part of Nike’s Move To Zero initiative.
The ‘Smoke Grey’ uses pink and yellow in its textile base layer, overlaid with smoky grey suede panels and a light blue Swoosh, heel panel and tongue label. UNION branding can be seen in numerous places over the sneaker, including on the cork sock-liners. The lace dubrae is marked with “Cortez ‘72” in a nod to the model’s launch in 1972.
The model also appears in a ‘Lemon Frost’ colorway.
