What customers are saying:
Customers really appreciate the classic, versatile look and high quality of these Nike Cortez sneakers, noting their stylish design and comfortable cushioning. Many customers suggested ordering a size up since the shoes tend to run small, especially in the toe area. This recommendation comes from multiple reviews mentioning that the sneakers feel a bit narrow during extended wear. Overall, with the extra sizing, these trendy kicks are a cool and comfortable addition to any wardrobe.

Looks great, definitely get a size and a half up
May 21, 2019Love the look of these and pretty much everything about it. Only complaint is that after I broke them in (about a day and a half of wearing them) they started to feel tighter and tighter, even despite loosening the laces and such. Unfortunately got to a point where I couldn't return them because they were worn in a bit, so definitely get a size up. (I'm a 10, should have gotten a 10.5/11)

Runs REALLY small
April 2, 2019Really good looking shoes, but I have never purchased a pair that runs smaller. I mean that literally. I wear size 13 in Nike sneakers (I have two other Nike pairs I purchased from J Crew in that size and they fit great) but I can squeeze into a size 12 if forced to. I can't even get my feet into these. They fit more like size 11, if not smaller. Unfortunately there is no size 14 so I can't buy a size up. But they do look great, no question.

Love These Shoes!
July 3, 2018These Nike Cortez shoes exceeded my expectations. I’ve worn them casual with shorts and dressier with chinos and they never disappoint. A real sharp looking pair of shoes. Sizing runs slightly small. So glad I ordered them from J. Crew. I am very satisfied.

Cool Shoes, Run Small
May 18, 2018I really like the style quality of the shoes but they run fairly small. I had to return my original pair and get a full size larger. Other than that the shoes are great.

True to Size, Toe Box No Room
May 7, 2018These sneakers are seriously true to size. However, be warned: if you buy exactly your feet size, there's not a lot of room at the toe box, so with an extended wearing throughout the day, the feet will start to feel as it is being compressed. Because of the insoles, they feel very comfortable--It's like hugging your feet with cushioning--though sacrificing width space, to where it will feel much more narrow than it needs to be. I seriously recommend sizing a ONE FULL up, especially if you rely on the 'thumb width rule,' for spacing at the toe box. The plus side, this doesn't really need much breaking in.
