CLOT and Nike have revealed new Kung Fu-inspired lifestyle sneakers in original red, white, and blue colors. The sneakers pay tribute to the Nike Cortez sneaker model in its 1972 debut and are the last addition to the 'CLOTEZ' collaborative lineup.
The sneakers contain a two-piece build that can be separated into different styles. The sneakers have a white leather upper with red suede material on the Nike logo branding on the lateral sides, the co-branded tongues, and the heel tabs that contain Chinese characters that translate to the word "Kung Fu" in English with each character on each sneaker. The second build piece is made with an all-white nylon material that splits Nike logo banding that becomes complete when slipped on. Additionally, the sneakers have speckled ropes tied to the rear with yin-yang toggles. The sneakers will be available for $140 on April 7.
