These are absolute gems!

Nike recently released 6 models worldwide in Tokyo, London, New York and Sydney as part of their Laser Project. The unique designs were etched into Air Force One's, Cortez's and Dunks were from artists Stephan Georges, Mark Smith, Chris Lundy, Mike Desmond and Tom Luedecke.

The Cortez Premium Laser was designed by Nike designer Mark Smith, who is part of the Nike Innovation Kitchen.  Each pair of shoes are individually numbered XXX/200 and come in a Nike premium (sliding) box wrapped up in a suede sheet for added protection, instead of standard paper.  The laser pattern is burnt into the leather uppers prior to the construction of the shoes. The inside lining and top of the innersole are pigskin. The uppers are perhaps the softest Nike leather ever available on any Nike shoe! What's more is the innersole, where there is a new "foam" used that initially feels rather tough but contours to your foot for perfect comfort and fit. These would be a worthwhile shoe to have in any collection, especially such a rare shoe with limited distribution.

Our last pair sold all the way back in January 2004!
