Nike and Union LA Join Forces on a Pair of the Cortez Shoe
Union LA works in collaboration with Nike once again and this time around, the duo unveils a new footwear capsule that is centered around the iconic Nike Cortez shoe. The silhouette is an important shoe in the Los Angeles sneaker culture and an easy choice to highlight.
There is a slew of colorways that drop and images now surface of the bright beige iteration. It boasts a different angle than the traditional leather construction as it kicks off with canvas materials as the underlaying accent and suede applied throughout as the overlay. Both of these are done up in a light beige before bright red arrives at the Swooshes, the laces, the heel tabs, and the lower throat.
