The Nike Cortez Be True (2022) was released as part of Nike’s Be True campaign, which highlights apparel celebrating Pride Month. It boasts the classic Cortez silhouette with multi-color details set against a white base.

The color gradient on the midsole is a tribute to the rainbow flag and the LGBTQ social movement. This splash of color is sandwiched between two layers of white foam, complementing the shoe’s shimmery, white upper. The sneaker features Swooshes on the side with overlapping, multi-color stitching that matches the swatch on the midsole. Suede overlays cover the toe and a heel tab in the same material adorns the back of the shoe. The tongue houses a tag with the words ‘BE TRUE’ stitched above a small Swoosh.

Our StockX experts love how the black heel tab and tongue contrast the multicolor elements. The Nike Cortez Be True (2022) was released on July 12, 2022, and retailed at $90.
