Nike Cortez trainers are a classic style of trainer, and one that seems very difficult to come across in the United Kingdom. Nike Cortez are a typical old-school trainer with a classic simple look, yet Nike no longer make them available in the main stores. You need to look hard to find a pair of Nike Cortez these days in the UK, you can still pick up most types and colours of Cortez shoe in the USA, but in the UK they are much harder to come by.

Top tip is to look in independent trainer shops rather than the high street trainer stores. Many have older Nike Cortez stock in many styles and colours just sitting around at good prices.

Another tip is to look on eBay for your Nike Cortez, although be careful of fakes coming over from Hong Kong and China at very cheap prices.

Our best recommendation for buying a pair of Nike Cortez trainers is to either find an online trainer retailer in the USA who ships internationally, that way you get to take advantage of the currency difference too, or (our favourite) jump on a plane headed to LA, spend a week there enjoying the life and weather, then call by at one of the many independent sneaker stores located all around the city and pick the exact pair of Nike Cortez you want. Some stores even offer customised Nike Cortez trainers, so you can really make sure you're not only getting a classic look, but also a completely original pair too.
