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 ‘Lemon Frost’ uses red and purple in its textile base layer, overlaid with creamy off-white suede panels and a bright lemon-yellow 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 ‘Smoke Grey’ colorway.
