The Air Jordan Spizike was made to show appreciation to Mars Blackmon aka Spike Lee. Spike’s part in the rising of the Air Jordan was very crucial. A lot of people may remember the funny commercials Spike Lee’s alias Mars Blackmon from the movie She’s Gotta Have it.
Initially nicknamed the “retro Frankenstein”, the Air Jordan Spizikes (Spiz’ikes) had as many haters as lovers initially and probably a few more. Many anticipated that this was going to be a bust, but when word got out that the first colorway of the Air Jordan Spizikes would only be available along I-95 (as per Spike Lee’s request), the hype for these shoes boomed!
Initially, the Air Jordan Spizikes were going to be released in only the first two colorways, but after the more than warm reception to the first colorway, Jordan Brand fast tracked 5 new colorways including one that is themed after another hot Spike Lee joint, “Do The Right Thing“.
The Air Jordan Spizikes take pieces from the following shoes:
Air Jordan 3 (III) - sole, midsole, and Spike/elephant print
Air Jordan 4 (IV) - wings on the sides of the shoes that hold lace loops
Air Jordan 5 (V) - main silhouette of the shoes as well as netting on the side
Air Jordan 6 (VI) - tongue of shoes and lace locks
Air Jordan 9 (IX) - back tab
Spike Lee produced or appeared in commercials reciprocating to each model represented on the Air Jordan Spizikes.
