A couple of months have passed since Chitose Abe first revealed her newest sacai x Nike collaboration at Paris Fashion Week Men's, and now we’re finally getting a closer look at the second sacai x Nike Cortez colourway that’s set to drop later this year. Joining the “White” pair that riffs on the shoe’s original palette is a slightly stealthier option, so here’s what to expect from the upcoming collaborative sacai x Nike Cortez “Grey.”
Arriving in a smart steel grey hue, the “Grey” sacai x Nike Cortez follows the iconic silhouette’s traditional makeup of nylon and suede, with a couple of sacai’s signature touches thrown in for good measure. A stormy grey shade takes over the nylon base, whilst a steel grey, shaggy suede smothers the toe cap, eye stays, and heels. In true sacai style, doubled-up detailing can be spotted on the “Grey” sacai Cortez’s lace unit, tongues, and liners, and of course, the iconic Nike Swoosh has also received the same treatment.
The “Grey” sacai x Nike Cortez sits atop a stacked sole that bears a visible Zoom Air unit in the forefoot and is set to arrive in special-edition packaging to celebrate the collaboration and mark the silhouette’s 50th anniversary.
Set to drop later this year, be sure to hit the release reminders to be the first to know when the “Grey” sacai x Nike Cortez becomes available, and in the meantime be sure to keep it locked for all the latest sneaker news.
Up next, Travis Scott's Air Max 1s are dropping soon.
