Nike Cortez Fly Motion Si

The Cortez is banging. From Farrah getting her Charlie's Angels skate on, the Corsair's DNA being distilled and those changes in shapes, recently coming full circle with the mighty fine Vintage nylon and suede variations and the older, harder-to-wear, floppier and less comfortable leather '71 version resurrected lately. Beyond the tradition we're huge fans of the Fly Motion variation too. It just cranks up the performance intent of the OG in line with recent developments without making us recoil like Nosferatu in the sun like the Rift 2 did all those years ago - Flywire is an effective source of support and comfort, but its telling that the herringbone outsole has been retained, a feature that was very much ahead of its time. One of the finest Nike updates to date.
