The Air Cortez is back (kind of)

Look familiar?

Jordanified Nike Air Cortez

Yeaahhhh we thought so too…

The Deffest Air Jordan inspired Cortez Chicago 23

I was served the 'Nike by You' advertisement above yesterday and noticed that it looks very, very similar to the 'Air Cortez' Jordan Chicago colorway heaters that we made as part of our ‘Jordanified’ April Fools day prank way back in 2019. For the prank we turned every pair of Nike iD sneakers into “Jordans.” We're honored that Nike decided to use it for a promo piece and always stoked to reinvent the classics. Beaverton HQ you should drop us a line on the contact page when you're ready to take it to the next level.️ There's a whole lot more of where that came from.

You can check out a couple of Deffest Nike ID ‘Jordans’ below and the full collection lives out on Pinterest here. If you want to make your own colorways the Nike by You website is here.

April Fools

APRIL FOOLS. (We got’cha)

Thanks to everyone who dropped by to check out Jordanified.com. 🔥👟👀 For those that missed it yesterday the April fools day prank concept was simple.... to turn every pair of available of Nike sneakers into "Jordans" for the 35th anniversary of Michael Jordan’s signing. The site is meant to be a satire on the never ending Jordan / Kobe / LeBron G.O.A.T. debate and we had a lot of fun making it.

To make it work we painstakingly re-colored every shoe in the Air Jordan 1 retro colorways using the NIKEiD tool, including LeBron, Kobe, Kyrie, Paul George and Kevin Durant's shoes, numbering them all 23 and renaming them as "Air." If you want to see our handy work the link above will take you there and as a side note if any of you want to buy the Jordanified "AIR" sneakers they are for sale at Nike's website. Shout out to Nike for the NikeID tool - this is a really awesome resource. No sneakers were harmed during the making of this prank and there can only be one G.O.A.T. 🐐

UPDATE: Jordanified.com no longer exists but you can still see the collection here on Pinterest.
