Nagai Michitoshi (長井道利?) (????-1571) was a retainer of the Japanese Saitō clan following the Sengoku period of the 16th century of Japan.
He was the brother of Saitō Dōsan, the serpent Daimyo, which made him an officer of the Saitō clan. When Saitō Yoshitatsu, a son of Dōsan, clashed in a fight with him, Michitoshi took the side of Yoshitatsu. Michitoshi later fought under Saitō Tatsuoki, (another son of Dōsan) against the Oda, during the Mino campaign. He later accompanied Tatsuoki into exile, after their castle was taken over by the Oda forces.
