WMNS Nike Cortez "White Light Armoury Blue" DZ2795-100

The WMNS Nike Cortez “White Light Armoury Blue” DZ2795-100 ushers in a refined version of a revered classic, addressing wearer feedback with significant updates while retaining its retro appeal. This iteration offers a wider toe box for enhanced comfort and employs more robust materials to minimize wear such as warping, creasing, and scuffing. Stability is improved through firmer side panels, securing the foot and providing a solid base.

Central to its design, the sneaker maintains its iconic look with a durable foam midsole and the classic wedge insert, ensuring comfort for all-day wear. The herringbone pattern on the outsole delivers reliable traction and nods to the shoe’s rich heritage. The design is completed with a padded, low-cut collar for a snug fit.

Introduced in 1972 by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, the Cortez was engineered to be lighter and more comfortable than any other running shoe at the time, quickly rising to prominence as the preferred choice among runners across the country. It has since become an enduring symbol, embedded in cultural history. The latest version of the Cortez combines this legacy with thoughtful enhancements to meet the demands of modern wearers, cementing its place as an enduring emblem in the sneaker landscape.
