FAQs
Is the Nike Cortez true to size?
Yes, the Nike Cortez generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a slightly roomier fit.
Can these shoes be put in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Stick to manual cleaning methods.
What is the best way to keep the white leather white?
Wipe them down after every use and use a leather conditioner to prevent the material from drying out and absorbing grime.
Are these suitable for running?
While originally designed as a track shoe in 1972, modern versions like this are intended for casual, everyday lifestyle use.
What does the herringbone pattern do?
The herringbone pattern on the outsole is designed to provide better grip and traction on various surfaces by increasing surface area contact.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use wooden shoe trees when not wearing to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Stubborn scuffs on the white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft-bristled brush with mild soap, testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Squeaking sound while walking
Ensure the insoles are dry and properly seated; if the issue persists, a small amount of talcum powder beneath the insole can help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Cortez stays in optimal condition, wipe the leather exterior regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial cleaning agents, as these can yellow the white leather or damage the finish. For the laces, remove them periodically and hand wash them in lukewarm, soapy water. Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or the glue from losing its bond. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup inside the shoe.
