My favorite Nike sneakers. The fit is perfect: holds your feet in place so comfortably, the leather is smooth and it looks spectacular.
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!!
