Following the re-release of the legendary “Forrest Gump” earlier this season, it looks like Nike‘s got another iconic colourway up its Swoosh-branded sleeve with the Nike Cortez “Lakers.” Clearly inspired by the Los Angeles-based professional basketball team, make sure you read on to find out everything that you need to know.
Boasting a crisp all-white leather construction, the standout feature of this Cortez is the bold “Varsity Purple” Swoosh that hits the lateral and medial sidewalls. A complementary badge graces the back, while yellow “Varsity Maize” accents hit the tongue to really bring the Lakers-esque theme home.
Underfoot, the midsole is made from some of the plushest rubber available, and it’s decorated with an additional wedge of gold. The unit is then lined with a grippy outsole that offers unrivalled grip and traction with every step.
Whether you’re a die-hard Lakers fan or a sneakerhead looking to add a unique pair to your collection, the Nike Cortez “Lakers” is sure to deliver on both style and performance. Dropping sometime this summer, be sure to keep it locked at Captain Creps for your best chance to secure your size!
