Quality of shoe was excellent but I usually wear size 13 so I ordered 14 hoping it would be roomy, but I found the width a bit snug and the length just right instead of larger

I absolutely love these shoes; they are my favorite ever. They feel great and are incredibly comfortable for walking all day. They've been durable as well, as I've had one pair for for over 2 years and just ordered another in a slightly different look. Overall, it's just a great, simple, classic shoe.

These are my new favorite shoes. I've worn Pumas for the past 5-6 years and I came across these and will keep an eye out for any more color combination that they come out with that I like. Really comfortable, way better for walking a bit compared to the Puma's I was wearing, and overall the quality is great.

I purchased the Nike Cortez Leather in White with a black swoosh. First off before writing this review I want to say that I have wide feet. Usually wear size 9.5W. That being said I had to return two pairs of these before I got the right size, because of course they do not come in wide width. I have contacted Nike design team with this idea to make wide width but that's beside the point. These shoes run small to fit. Both narrow and length. I had to order size 10.5 D even though I'm a 9.5W. Other than the sizing and width these shoes look awesome. And I mean like the classic swagger type awesome. People have commented many times on how cool these shoes look. They are retro looking and are very stunning. I recommend this shoe highly, but get at least a half size bigger than you normally are.

Great service! Got my shoes within a few days time... I am a woman, and since they didn't have these shoes in woman's sizes, I went by the charts and compared sizes. I got the perfect match! I'm happy I went through Zappos, saved me time and money. I would definitely recommend Zappos to a friend; in fact, I already have! The same day I got my Nike Cortez, I convinced my best friend to get herself a pair of Nike's too! We both got our shoes within the same 2 days. Zappos is awesome! More about the shoes, they are man's shoes, so the ankle opening seems a little wider than my woman's Nike Cortez that I have in white. None-the-less I love my new shoes. I am a size 8 in woman's and ordered a size 7 in man's for this shoe and it was spot on! Perfect fit.

These shoes are the best! I bought my first pair in 1989, and these feel the same after all these years. They are Very comfortable. I wore them to work today and had a few people say they were nice and asked where I got them. I hope Zappos keeps them in stock for years to come. I will always buy them.

Brings me back to my child days with my first pair of Nikes. Great for kicking it at the movies or going to the grocery. Doubt if I could recommend these for sports with the many other options today.

I Absolutely Love Wearing Nike Cortez!!!! I just Recently Introduced My Wife To A couple of pairs of Nike Cortez for Her First Time.....She Loved Them As Well!!!! I like all of the different color combinations and knowing that The Nike Cortez Are Unisex Shoes.....My Absolute Favorite Part Of The Nike Cortez Are The Soles!!!!! The Zig Zag Pattern Is Awesome!!!! I Love How The Soles Look Like Jagged Saw Teeth on the Edges!!!!! These Soles Are Perfect For Stepping On And Crushing Stuff Under Them!!!!! I Love Leaving My Shoe Print Behind On Stuff I Have Stepped On!!!! Cigarette Butts, Styrofoam Containers, and Squishy Food Are Always Fun To Step On!!!! I Highly Recommend The Nike Cortez!!!!!

I purchased these in a 10 for my daughter to use for Cheerleading. She normally wears an 11 women's. These were similar and not a narrow. They are leather with suede heel and toe. She loves them and they are comfortable. I wish they had this in all leather with better arch support even for an everyday shoe.

Loved the shoes, ran a size higher than normal (good thing I read the other reviews.) Shipped for free within 24 hours of purchase. This was the most successful online purchase I've ever made.

This shoe is an old classic, and my son won't wear anything else. So glad that I can find it at Zappo's! Staff was very helpful in clearing up a glitch in the description. My order always arrives in the shortest time possible. Consistently best online shopping experience.

Great shoes. I bought these for myself (woman) because I couldn't find my size in these colors in woman's sizing. I am usually a size 9.5-10 in woman's. I purchased these in size 8.5 in mans and they fit perfect.

The Cortez aka dopemans are one of my fave shoes besides the chucks, they run small in a 9.5 had to return them for a 10. I use these for mountain biking. Good grip on sole!

Nice quality leather shoe for the price and made in Vietnam, not China! These feel very narrow when new but I believe that could be alleviated by buying one size larger. Definitely not true to size for 11's because 11's always fit me perfectly in the D width. Still I feel the leather will give some after broken in. Great classic Nike!

My favorite Nike shoe of all time. I had these in high school and college and still love they way they feel. It has good support and feels light on my feet. I have small width feet and these shoes fit well. I love the colors which match my school colors that I teach at. If you want a reasonable priced pair of shoes for knocking around in these are the ones.

My husband loves these shoes. They for great and are a little comfortable. His only complaint is that they are a little bulky and not as streamlined looking as his Tigers.

I don't care what anyone says the Cortez is the coolest throwback ever. This is the 2nd pair I've had. First pair I got was in 1990 while going to college and I wore them for the next 12 years. I got red paint on them while painting the exterior of The Austin Music Network in 2001. I got red paint spots all over them and it looked good with the red Swoosh. Next stop was the garbage in 2005 after just wearing them out completely. Here's to 15 more years of Bliss with my new Black Swoosh Cortez Nike's. And yes they do make you feel super cool. Don't you want a pair now? I'll bet you do! Peace.

These sneakers are really cute however they tend to run small. I think you should order a 1/2 size up.

I usually where a 9.5 or 10 depending on the shoe. I went with a 10 based on some of the reviews. The shoes fit great, feel comfy and look fantastic. I haven't worn them long enough to say how they will hold up over time, but I'm very pleased so far. Brings me back to mouth youth :)
