Nike Cortez Vintage “Medium Curry” (FJ2530-200)
Warme curry als hoofdtoon, dat is meteen waar deze Cortez zich onderscheidt. De zachte suède bovenkant draagt een aardse, mosterdgele tint die eruitziet alsof hij al jaren mag rijpen — vandaar de naam Vintage Medium Curry. Daartegenover zet Nike een crèmewitte Swoosh en hieltab in leer, een contrast dat de vorm strak en herkenbaar houdt. Onder je voet loopt een gum-zool door, honingkleurig en met visgraatprofiel, die op gladde vloeren net dat beetje extra grip geeft. Voor de kenner: FJ2530-200.
Suède voelt zacht en geeft karakter, en tegelijk komt die diepe curry het best tot zijn recht op droge dagen, wanneer de kleur echt vol blijft. Het leren detail aan hiel en zijkant houdt zijn vorm en veeg je zonder moeite schoon. De lage snit en het smalle silhouet uit de jaren zeventig maken 'm licht en veelzijdig: strak onder een rechte jeans, speelser bij een korte broek of jurk waar het curry-geel de warmte oppakt. Combineer met crème of olijf en de aardetinten doen de rest.

CheapestNike Cortez TXT Beyond Pink Blue Void (DZ2795-602)€20
PriciestNike ‘Cortez Kenny 4’ – White (AV2950)€2.445We always compare the lowest price a colorway is currently on sale for somewhere: the cheapest entry point, usually for one specific size. The comparison stays within the same age group, because a kids size (TD/PS/GS) is priced differently than an adult size. Because the price varies per size, your size may come out a little higher. To keep the comparison fair we leave out the most and least expensive two percent — the resale outliers, and the price axis is logarithmic so both the cheap and the pricey end stay readable. We refresh the numbers several times a day; last update 20 Oct 2026.
Hypescore × price
Hype doesn't have to be expensive. Each dot is a Nike Cortez colorway (of the 373 with a Hypescore): the further right, the more hype, and the higher a dot sits, the cheaper the sneaker. This sneaker is the photo with the red ring (Hypescore 63). Below the RRP they're called meltdowns: top-left the quiet price meltdowns (cheap, but little attention yet), top-right the radiating meltdowns — lots of hype and well below retail, the hottest deals. Above the RRP sit the grails: bottom-right the radiating grails (loved and pricey), and bottom-left the potential grails — pricey with little hype. That can simply be too expensive, but it's often where fresh drops and collabs appear that are too new to have gathered grail votes; their hype still has to build.
