FAQs
Is the Nike Cortez suitable for running?
While the Nike Cortez has athletic roots, it is currently intended as a lifestyle and casual sneaker rather than a technical performance running shoe.
Does the leather upper stretch over time?
Leather naturally softens and molds to the shape of your foot with regular wear, which may result in a slightly more relaxed fit over time.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, never place your sneakers in a dryer, as high heat can damage the leather, adhesives, and foam components of the shoe.
How do I choose the right size?
The Nike Cortez typically fits true to size for standard adult feet. We recommend purchasing your usual UK size.
Are these sneakers waterproof?
The leather construction provides some protection against light moisture, but they are not waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Troubleshooting
Visible creasing on the toe box
This is common with leather footwear. Use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help retain their shape and minimize deep creases.
Surface dirt on white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft cloth with a mixture of mild soap and water to gently wipe the affected areas, then allow to air dry away from direct heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Cortez stays in optimal condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the surface clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap when necessary. For the laces, remove them and hand-wash them separately in warm water. To maintain the shape of the shoe when not in use, consider using a shoe tree or stuffing the toe area with acid-free paper to reduce natural creasing. Compatibility-wise, these sneakers are designed for standard adult foot shapes; ensure you select your accurate UK size to maintain the intended comfort and arch support provided by the sole structure.
