Gray makes me Happy!

This shoe is absolutely beautiful to look at and it’s so soft and pretty. Gray & green are favorite color. This is my second pair of Cortez Nikes. I have the another pair in Pink and Green fabric. They fit really good and not too tight in the toe area. Feel good. I will say a little tight by the shoe strings/tie area. However I haven’t fully broken them in. Can’t wait to wear!!

very disappointing

Extremely uncomfortable. The heel part of the shoe is very hard and digs into your foot. They literally hurt my feet once they were on and I took them off right away. Horrible shoes. I was very disappointed because I really liked how they looked.

Nice, however

I love and own several pairs of Cortez shoes including leather ones. These shoes look really nice but is made differently than my other Cortez shoes. It’s slightly bigger and not as comfortable. The top part of the shoe is made with thinner leather material and the inner sole is also thinner and not as comfortable. I like the design aesthetic but wish they’d kept the build of the shoes the same.

love

I love that just like adidas samba decon they are all leather. They are well made, the leather quality can be better not so cheap cardboard looking. Description states to help with creasing but i feel it makes it worse due to the stiffness. This will probably not “crease” but will crack the leather due to lower quality. Increase leather quality @nike and you will nail it!
