Corteiz on Kakobuy Spreadsheet
Corteiz — listed by some sellers as CRTZ — is one of the broadest UK hubs on the Kakobuy spreadsheet. Tees lead it, then cargos and shorts, then hoodies, Bolo jackets and tracksuits, plus the three Air Max Corteiz colourways under the shoes.
Cargos are the anchor buy here — pair them with t-shirts, hoodies or shoes from the Kakobuy Spreadsheet.
The Corteiz pieces worth knowing about
Corteiz is a graphics label, and the Alcatraz padlock is the graphic. It runs across almost everything in this grid: the 4Starz and Allstarz hoodies, the Alcatraz zip-up, the Classic Cargo pants and shorts in triple black and in black with the white logo, the anniversary tracksuits. The other recurring motifs are the Scorpion and Bomb tee prints and the island puff print. Because the branding is usually a single large mark, print placement is the whole ballgame — off-centre by a couple of centimetres and the piece is finished.
The Classic Cargo is the item this brand is bought for and it has a specific fit: wide leg, heavy cotton, a drawcord at the hem and bellowed side pockets that need to hold their shape rather than lie flat. On the QC photos Kakobuy sends from the warehouse, look at whether the pocket bellows have structure and whether the hem cord and toggle are actually functional. Sizing runs generous already, so sizing up on top of that usually overshoots.
The Bolo jacket and the pink monogram windbreaker are the outerwear picks, and the mohair and knit sweaters are the sleeper items — both are far harder to make well than a tee and are worth spending longer on. The Air Max Corteiz pairs in blue, powder and yellow are filed under shoes rather than here, but they belong to the same story. All USD. The Kakobuy Spreadsheet holds the rest of the catalog.
