The Nike Cortez is a classic running sneaker from the early days of the Swoosh in the '70s and has become one of the most iconic silhouettes in the Nike catalog. Recently, in commemoration of the most recent Lunar New Year, the updated Cortez NM was given proper "Year of the Horse" treatment.
Outfitted in in its traditional nylon, the Cortez NM features printed panels with symbolism that draws inspiration from the horse in Chinese culture. As if the graphics weren't enough to make the Cortez stand out, the leather Nike Swoosh and Natural Motion sole round out the design and give this classic sneaker a modern aesthetic.
The Nike Cortez NM "Year of the Horse" in the "Team Red" colorway is now available on Nike Store for $90. If you're trying to scoop up a pair, you're in luck at the moment because a full-size run is still in stock.
