Introducing the Nike Cortez “Yin Yang Shroud” FJ7870-101, a unique reinterpretation of the iconic Cortez design that pays tribute to its rich history. Although the Cortez marked its 50th anniversary in 2022, Nike Sportswear has opted to honor Bill Bowerman’s legendary creation in 2023.
This particular version of the Nike Cortez features a complete leather construction, giving it a classic and timeless appearance. What sets it apart is the removable zippered tongue cover, adding versatility to the sneaker’s design.
To emphasize the “Yin and Yang” theme, the color scheme plays a pivotal role. The lateral side and toe box sport clean White, while the medial side embraces a deep Black. This contrast extends across various components of the shoe, including the Swooshes, tongues, heels, pull tabs, and insoles, creating a balanced interplay of light and dark.
A solid White rubber sole offers a stable foundation for every step, and a subtle Black stripe on the midsole introduces a touch of detail. The result is a well-balanced and visually striking Nike Cortez that skillfully blends tradition with a modern twist.
