FAQs
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper of this Nike Cortez model is made from a breathable textile material, providing a lightweight feel and comfort.
Are these shoes suitable for running or intense workouts?
While the Cortez has roots in running, this textile version is designed for casual wear and light daily activities. For intense workouts or running, specialized athletic shoes are recommended.
How should I clean my Nike Cortez Textile shoes?
Spot clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Air dry completely away from direct heat.
Are the Nike Cortez shoes true to size?
Generally, Nike Cortez models are considered true to size. We recommend purchasing your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. This specific model is a UK 14.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, due to their textile construction, these shoes are not waterproof. They offer limited resistance to moisture and are best worn in dry conditions.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
For optimal comfort and to maintain the shoe's interior, wear moisture-wicking or breathable cotton socks, especially during warmer weather.
Troubleshooting
Textile upper appears dirty or stained.
Spot clean immediately using a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Gently rub the affected area. For stubborn dry dirt, use a soft-bristled brush.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size (UK 14 in this case). Loosen the laces for a more relaxed fit. Allow a short 'break-in' period for the materials to conform to your foot.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Sometimes squeaking can come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning underneath, and replacing it. A small amount of talcum powder might help.
Laces constantly come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot or a 'surgeon's knot'. Consider replacing old or worn laces with new ones for better grip.

- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, gently wipe the textile upper with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Brush Away Dirt: Use a soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently remove dry dirt and dust from the textile surface.
