The Nike Cortez Sail / University Red is a classic sneaker that pays homage to Nike's rich history and timeless design ethos. Originally introduced in 1972, the Cortez has become synonymous with both athletic performance and casual street style, consistently appealing to a wide range of sneaker enthusiasts. This specific iteration, the Sail / University Red, features a clean and minimalist design that emphasizes the shoe's iconic silhouette. The upper is crafted from high-quality leather in a subtle sail color, which is a soft, off-white shade that offers versatility and elegance. The striking University Red accents, prominently displayed on the signature Nike Swoosh and heel tab, provide a vibrant contrast that captures attention while maintaining a sense of classic simplicity.
Over the years, the Nike Cortez has evolved from a groundbreaking running shoe to a cultural staple, often seen at the crossroads of sport, music, and fashion. This model, with its Sail / University Red colorway, continues that legacy by combining nostalgia with modern style sensibilities. The shoe's comfort-oriented design, which includes a lightweight foam midsole and durable rubber outsole with a herringbone pattern for enhanced traction, remains one of its most attractive features. The Nike Cortez Sail / University Red is not just a sneaker; it's a statement piece that carries the essence of both retro charm and contemporary cool, making it a coveted item for collectors and casual wearers alike. Whether paired with activewear or integrated into a more fashion-forward outfit, the Cortez effortlessly bridges the gap between sport and style.

I wear these to work every day. Even with the “memory foam” I still added a foam insert
Reviewer Eliza Bowman
Surprised that I like these steel toed shoes. I work on concrete floors and my feet never hurt at the end of the day and I don't feel the steel toes.
Reviewer Brad McNeely
They fit perfect, really light
Reviewer J C Schenk
Very comfortable shoes. They seem to get more comfortable each time you wear them. Only issue is that you will need socks that cover your heel as the back of the shoe will rub it raw.

This is a cute, casual shoe by Blueview. The upper part of the shoe is a pretty green (olive) color with a strap over the top of the foot. I like that you could remove this strap, but I like it on. It reminds me of the fashionable shoe brand, Vans (in the look and style). Another selling point is this shoe is organic, made of hemp and eucalyptus. So great for the environment. This shoe, to me, is unisex. Women and men can enjoy. I wear these with khakis or (denim) jeans. These shoes fit try to size. I wear and ordered an 8.5. These are comfortable and worth considering. Overall, this is a great shoe and the fact that they are environmentally friendly is a plus. 5 stars
Reviewer Amanda Harte
