The Nike Cortez, originally designed by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman in 1972 with the goal of creating the lightest and most comfortable shoe, has become an enduring icon in pop culture history. This version features the Nike EasyOn system, designed for quick and easy on and off, especially for children. It integrates elastic laces with a hook-and-loop strap for a secure fit that can be achieved swiftly by simply sliding the foot in.
