Summer is nearly here, and the sunny weather fast approaching. With that in mind, we have developed the perfect addition to your Summer Wardrobe. The “Cortez” cord shoe is just made for those long hot Summer days and nights. So we are thinking shorts and summer polo tops, but of course they can also work well with jeans / chinos, with or without socks. The “Cortez” is perfect for picnics in the park, BBQs, taking the scooter out for a spin and general sauntering around looking cool !
The “Cortez” is made in Spain, and with it’s sturdy sole is a lot less flimsy than some cheaper summer shoes.
Sizing
From the feedback so far, we advise sticking with size. If you are between sizes perhaps go up, especially if you are a wide foot. We will update with any more reviews when we receive them. I am 8.5 and a bit broad, I had a 9 in these, as i like this type of shoe roomy, where as I would have 8 in most other Mod Shoes

Fantastic summer shoes, which I got with a buy 1, get 1 free offer. I got the navy as my extra pair. They look great with my chinos. Another great buy from Mod Shoes.

Beautiful shoes – fit like a dream and super comfy. I pair up with a pair of beige chinos. I already have a pair of the Paulo in coffee so am a big fan of this style. Delivery and sizing guidelines were spot on as usual. The only trouble is, I’m now petrified of spilling anything on them! Any advice for how best to care for them?

A great cord shoe, these ones look especially mod style and go well with white jeans or chinos with a dark coloured sock to provide a contrast between the two. Nice one Mod Shoes.

Very comfy. Well made and look like something from a Small Faces shoot. Love ’em! I have a pair of white stay-pressed Levis they look great with.
The colour is totally impractical and I’m dreading spilling anything on them – anyone got any tips on keeping these clean?

Fantastic summer shoes! I have awkward sizing but these were an immediate fit. Very comfortable and, as many of the other reviews have already stated, very, very stylish. I shall be getting a lot of wear out of these.

Honestly couldn’t be happier with these shoes! Been looking for something like this for ages and finally found a pair that I like, the cord is very unique imo, so much so that I so many positive comments from people when I wore them for the first time out in London at the weekend. So comfortable as well, like wearing slippers on your feet. Bought the chocolate ones aswell for the autumn. The only thing now is to find a decent shoe protector for them!

This is my third pair of these shoes, I have bought 2 cream and 1 navy. The original cream cortez had beige soles which I preferred, my 2nd pair have black soles which are a bit stark against the cream cord. They are super comfortable and we’re great on holiday. Highly recommended.

I love these new Cortez summer shoes. They combine the casual, easy wearability and comfort of the Summer Shoe line with the ultimate Mod coolness of the cord shoe-Mod Shoes, you’ve done it again! Grab a pair before they disappear!

I can’t praise Modshoes enough. Excellent service from start to finish. Best quality shoes and clothing, great designs plus comfort as well as style! Along with excellent communication and next day delivery.
I own a pair of Frescos, Paulos, Deightons, Elliots and now the new Cortez! In cream corduroy. Style and comfort at its best!
I can’t wait to see what’s coming next and even better and more accessible now with the introduction of paying in four instalments.
I feel like a kid again staring in the window of Shelleys in Carnaby Street!
