Nike Cortez - Blue - UK 10.5

Nike Cortez generally fit true to size. However, it's always recommended to check a Nike size chart for accuracy or try them on if possible, as individual foot shapes vary. This specific pair is UK 10.5.

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather sneakers as it can damage the material and adhesives. Follow the care instructions for cleaning the leather upper and rubber soles manually.

The Nike Cortez is best suited for casual everyday wear, light walking, and adding a stylish touch to your casual outfits. They are not designed for high-performance sports like running or intense training.

It is highly recommended to apply a leather-specific waterproof spray to the shoes before their first wear and to reapply periodically according to the product's instructions. This will help repel water and prevent stains.

The frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions they are exposed to. As a general guideline, conditioning the leather every 1-2 months will help keep it supple, prevent cracking, and maintain its appearance.

While listed under 'gender: Male' in the product attributes, the classic Cortez design is often considered unisex. However, sizing can differ, so always refer to the specific men's sizing chart for UK 10.5.

Clean the area gently with a damp cloth. For persistent scuffs, use a leather cleaner and then apply a matching leather polish or conditioner. Buff gently with a soft cloth.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet. Ensure laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose.

Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) with a mild soap and water solution to scrub the rubber soles. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective on rubber.

Remove insoles if possible and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing.
