FAQs

Are the Nike Cortez true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size, but the leather construction may feel snug initially before molding to your foot.

Can these be used for running?

While the Cortez was originally designed as a running shoe, current versions are better suited for lifestyle and casual use.

How do I remove scuffs from the leather?

Light scuffs can often be removed with a clean, damp cloth or a soft-bristled brush.

Is the leather upper easy to maintain?

Yes, leather is relatively easy to wipe down compared to mesh or suede uppers.

What is the primary material of the sneaker?

The Nike Cortez Basic is constructed primarily with a durable leather upper.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the material retain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Dirt buildup on the white midsole

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a sponge with warm water to target the rubber midsole edges.
