The Nike Cortez in Solemn "Day Of The Dead" Style

Mexico's great tribute to those who passed soon begins. Our friends from Mexico usually celebrate the Day of the Dead in a pretty huge way. During this day, they "accompany" the departed and support them on their spiritual journey. In addition to the Nike Air Force 1 "Day Of The Dead" model, another sneaker from Nike will be dropping really soon, and is apparently also invited to this special occasion.

The matching Air Force 1 relies mostly on white leather. The Nike Cortez Basic Leather SE "Day Of The Dead", on the other hand, features more Halloween-inspired colours. Black, white, and orange are the typical colours of this spookiest day of the year. The Swoosh bears skull prints and reminds us of the Day of the Dead. Most likely, the Swoosh will also have reflective properties, just like with the Nike Air Force 1 "Day Of The Dead".

In addition, the Cortez gets a luxurious touch with its full-grain leather as well as the golden lace locks with a "Cortez ´72" branding. A cross-linked Nike logo on the tongue and an orange candle print on the insole complete the tribute to the special day.

It is said that the sneakers will be released on October 15th. This means they will show up in time for the Day of the Dead and Halloween. If you don't want to miss the release, you should download our Grailify app. We will inform you in time for new updates.
