Nike Presents the Cortez in "Sweet Beet" & Fauna Brown" Makeovers for Women

The Nike Cortez is one of the brand's oldest silhouettes still in production. Currently in its 53rd year, the design is no longer the pinnacle expression of performance running. Instead, it's become a cultural icon and go-to option for fashionable folks across the globe.

Ahead of the Fall/Winter 2025 season, the Spanish conquistador-inspired model has emerged in another duo of lifestyle-friendly makeovers. "Fauna Brown" and "Sweet Beet" tones lead the charge across the two pairs, which feature canvas bases, suede overlays, and velvet-like wide laces. "Baroque Brown/Cacao Wow" and "Dark Team Red/Rush Maroon" palettes accompany each respective style, creating eye-catching updates to the sneaker prominently features in Forest Gump.

Underfoot, serrated sole units fall in line with their uniform uppers.

Firm Nike.com release details of the Cortez duo haven't been disclosed by the brand as of yet, but that's expected to change soon. In the meantime, enjoy official photos of the Women's pairs.
