What does the 'Yin and Yang' design refer to?

The 'Yin and Yang' aspect refers to the visual contrast created by separating key design elements like the Swooshes, tongue, and heel, creating a balanced yet distinct aesthetic.

What is the main color of the shoe?

The main color of this specific model is White, with Black accents on the Swooshes, midsole stripes, and other detailing.

Can I wash these sneakers in a washing machine?

What size is this specific product?

This guide refers to the Nike Cortez 'Yin and Yang Shroud White Black' in a Women's UK Size 7.

Troubleshooting

Zipper on tongue protector is stiff

Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth.

Leather appears dry or scuffed

Clean the affected area with a damp cloth, then apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. For scuffs, a matching color shoe polish might help.

Discoloration on white areas

Gently clean with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used cautiously on rubber soles, but test on an inconspicuous area of the leather first.
