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.

The fit is decent, very low top - the color in person is a little washed out, which you can see in the pictures. It's just that you don't realize how desaturated the color is until you're wearing them and that isn't necessarily a bad thing it's just something I didn't think about until I saw them in person - I actually think I prefer it. I'd love them if they were just a tad darker and more "true" red but that is my preference not the fault of the product.

I'm a fan of Saucony shoes and having been wearing them for over a decade. I especially like their classics for their styling. I had an earlier version of this Bullet with a gray sole that I liked, but I love the new red sole even more.
The Bullets run small. For most shoes, I usually wear a size 10. For most Sauconys, it's 10.5. For Bullets, it's 11. They're also slender and not a good choice for wide feet. They're very flexible, but they're durable. The sole seems thin, but they're very comfy. After wearing this style, I'm having a hard time going back to the Jazz Low Pros, or any of the other styles - they seem really bulky.

Great fit. Great shoe. Wear it every day in my mostly standing job.
Reviewer Cecily C Vasington
Super cozy best $20 shoe ever
Reviewer Carmen J Fernandez
I like the look and feel of these shoes. Very simple and low, comfortable basic sneakers. They look good, even though there is so much rubber on the sides. The fit is perfect in my experience. I usually take a 13 in sneakers and often a 12 in boots, but with some sneakers I have to worry about the width - not a problem here. These fit right, don't cramp, but also don't leave my heel lifting in the back.
The prices are all over the place depending on the size you get, but these seem like a steal when your size happens to be on the inexpensive end of that scale.

Nice, well made sneakers. Nice Colors.

Fit me wrong so had to return but would’ve kept them if they fit.
Reviewer Barbara D Jungbauer
I find this brand width is short for me. length is just right.
Reviewer Alan E Scher
