ChapKixView: Sole What x Nike Cortez iD "Soles For Love"

Called "Sole For Love", this particular Nike Cortez iD is the result of a collabration between renowned local sneaker store Sole What and Nike in conjunction with the celebration of Nike Cortez's 40th anniversary. With only 26 pairs were made and available exclusively at the recent Cortez 40/40 KL event in Juice KL, all proceeds from the sale of the collab piece will be handed over to a local charity called Dignity For Children.

As shown above, I managed to check out the release personally at the Cortez 40/40 KL event. Personally, am not exactly a fan of the suade's top but I do like the clean combination of grey and yellow colorways together with the light blue finishing. I also prefer this version of Cortez rather than the OG version as the OG has way thinner sole.

What made the release more attractive to me is the fact that it is a complete package: you have the shoe, a matching Sole What t-shirt and a display case. Not to forget the fact that it is created via Nike iD custom shoe service that is not available here in Malaysia and pretty much explained the extremely limited amount of available units. Also, with all the proceeds from the sale are going to charity, this Sole What x Nike Cortez iD "Soles For Love" is definitely a winner in my book.

I'm not sure of its status for the time being but just in case that you want it, get in touch with Sole What or Juice KL to find out if they actually have leftovers stock from the event.
