Nike Cortez Polka Dots Black White (Women's)

The Nike Cortez Polka Dots in Black and White for Women is a premium women's lifestyle release of Nike's foundational 1972 running shoe — the first shoe ever sold under the Nike brand name, designed by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight — featuring a polka dot pattern across the Cortez's classic leather upper in a Black and White combination that applies the playful, circular dot print to one of Nike's most historically significant and most broadly culturally embedded silhouettes. The polka dot print is a recurring motif in Nike's women's Cortez releases, with the circular pattern's cheerful, retro aesthetic connecting naturally to the Cortez's own 1970s heritage character and to the broader fashion tradition of polka dots as a perennially popular pattern in women's dressing across multiple decades of twentieth and twenty-first century fashion. The Black and White execution is the most graphic and most high-contrast expression of the polka dot treatment on the Cortez's upper, with the maximum contrast between the dots and the base creating the most clearly defined and most visually crisp pattern presentation of the Polka Dots Cortez across its available color configurations. At $105 retail the Cortez Polka Dots Black White Women's is available through Nike and authorized retailers globally.
