How Forrest Gump Turned Nike Cortez Trainers Into A Cult Sensation

Groovy History

Forrest Gump is one of those cult classic movies that happens to span across all ages, time and cultures. In the film, Forrest Gump – played by Tom Hanks – receives a pair of Nike Cortez shoes which he uses to run across the country. It might not have been Steven Spielberg’s plan to make popularize these shoes in the film, but before Nike could say Cortez, this particular style was flying off the shelves faster than Gump could run. If you consider yourself a sneaker lover, then this is one iconic pair that you need to add to your wardrobe. And lucky for you, they come in a number of colors and not just their classic red, white and blue.
