Nike Cortez: Triple Black
Nike is reworking the Cortez into a 'Triple Black Polka Dot' — a monochrome, textured spin on a classic silhouette getting notable press this week. (revistagq.com) The release is being framed as one of Nike’s more sophisticated 2026 retros. (revistagq.com)
Nike’s Triple Black Polka Dot Cortez appears in the brand’s system as style code IR1332-002 and has been surfaced across retailers with a Summer 2026 release window, with at least one release tracker listing July 1, 2026. (hypebeast.com) (hypebeast.com) Price listings vary: some pages still show “MSRP: TBC,” while a handful of trackers and retail pages list retail estimates ranging from about $95 up to $140 depending on the source. (sneakerbardetroit.com) (sneakerbardetroit.com) Design specifics reported in the imagery include textured, tonal uppers with glossy polka‑dot detailing, perforated cutouts and rough suede overlays on the toe and eyestays, plus the Cortez’s traditional sawtooth outsole left intact. (hypebeast.com) (hypebeast.com) Retail listings identify the drop as carrying a WMNS designation on some merchant pages and indicate availability through Nike.com and select retailers rather than a wide global roll‑out. (kickscrew.com) (kickscrew.com) Coverage from fashion outlets frames the make-up as one of Nike’s more fashion-forward 2026 retros, with commentary likening the polka‑dot texture to high‑fashion motifs such as Comme des Garçons. (highsnobiety.com) (highsnobiety.com) Sneaker‑release trackers and retail pages that have logged IR1332-002 say details remain subject to change and that official confirmation (exact price and drop date) will likely appear on Nike’s release calendar and through participating retailers as the summer window approaches.
