A few weeks ago I had to record a video for one of the major media blogs (that I don’t think will EVER see the light of day), but they asked me about an underrated shoe…
I said I thought the Cortez was one of the most underrated shoes - it’s an absolute classic with only a handful of dope collaborations.
Of course, we’ve got the Mr. Cartoon collab, and we’ve got the J. Crew collab(s)…and the Shoe Dog pack. But what else is there for Cortez’s?
The only pairs of Cortez’s I felt comfortable enough to rock were the J. Crew collab’s - I still look for those pairs to this day.
Anyway, @union killed this collab. These are higher on my list than any other @union collab…doubt I’ll ever get to see them in person tho…lol
Why do you think the Cortez never made much of a (hypebeast style) impact with sneakerheads (like most of the other collab models)?
