Nike Zoom Cortez SP X Sacai/Black/Dark Grey/White/

DQ0581-001

Key Specifications:

Released on 13th December 2022. This collaboration with Chitose Abe’s Japanese luxury label, sacai, celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Cortez by applying her signature "doubled-up" aesthetic to the 1972 classic.

Design Highlights:

Signature "Double" Aesthetic: True to sacai’s style, the shoe features doubled Swooshes, dual tongues, overlapping laces, and a stacked heel counter.

Colorway: A moody palette of Iron Grey, Dark Grey, and Black, contrasted by a crisp white secondary Swoosh and heel branding.

Stacked Midsole: The midsole is dramatically layered, featuring a protruding wedge at the heel that gives the shoe a futuristic, architectural silhouette.

Exposed Zoom Air: Unlike the original Cortez, this version features a visible Zoom Air unit in the forefoot, adding a technical, high-performance look.

Upper Materials: A premium mix of nylon for the base and high-quality suede for the overlays (toe, heel, and eyestays), maintaining a heritage feel despite the modern edits.

Cushioning: Combines a classic foam midsole with responsive Zoom Air technology for enhanced impact protection compared to the 1972 original.

Traction: Retains the iconic herringbone-patterned rubber outsole for reliable grip and a nod to its track-and-field roots.

Collaborative Branding: Features dual Nike and sacai logos on the heel and tongue.

Usage & Care:

Sizing: Most users find these fit true to size, though the silhouette is naturally narrower than a modern bulky sneaker.

Comfort: While designed as a fashion statement, the Zoom Air unit makes these significantly more comfortable for walking than standard flat-soled Cortez models.

Target Gender: Unisex
