But don’t let it steal all your attention, but the Swoosh is reviving other originals from the 70s and 80s like this favorite from the Pacific Northwest.
Coming in hot with Gorge Green and Yellow Ochre, the Cortez appears in the classic “Oregon” colorway, and Nike’s ensuring that some of the running history will be packed into the this suede and nylon build.
