love the Nikes in brown!

I purchased the Nikes in the brown color and they are so pretty in person. I went with my normal size and I do have narrow feet and they fit perfectly.

they truly stopped caring

I was so excited to get the shoes pictured but instead I received white Summit high tops. They weren’t even the SIZE I ordered, let alone the right style or color. Hey Nordstrom, you ok? Because things have gotten really bad. The amount of worn, damaged, and incorrect merchandise I’ve received lately is heartbreaking. If you want these shoes, I’d suggest ordering directly from Nike to make sure you get the correct merchandise. Nordstrom just doesn’t care about customers anymore. I honestly feel like they just threw the closest pair of Nikes into a bag (yeah, they shipped these across the country in a bag so the the box is all smashed up) and called it good.

cute and comfy

I love the chocolate brown color! I’m usually a 7.5 in Nike but I had to size up to the 8 for a more comfortable fit. This is definitely the color of the season. They’re great.

Love them, but order 1/2 size up

Love the Nike Cortez sneaker. I purchased the brown. I always size up to a 7 1/2 in Nike as they tend to run a tad small. Had to return and purchase an 8 in these. I never wear an 8. Wanted to have the option to wear mid weight crew socks. Waited forever for the brown to come back in stock. So glad they did! : )

I love this shoe. Very comfortable.

Love the shoe. I got the dark brown ones. They run a little bigger than the leather ones. So I would say they are true to size

Cortez Scores 10-10-10 across the 3!

These sneakers are amazingly comfortable, light, and fashionably they go with absolutely everything one's closet. I'm going to get them in navy blue.

Dont bother

Despite the negative reviews with sizing, I took a chance and ordered. I ordered a women’s 9/mens 7.5 and was sent a women’s 7.5. I would have thought with all of the negative reviews on incorrect sizing Nordstrom would have fixed the issue by now . Clearly it is not. Do not order.
