Jordan's Ultimate Sneaker Hybrid Looks Familiar (& Brick-Flavored)
Nike's Jordan Spizike Low sneaker, the brand's ultimate sneaker hybrid, has launched in a new tonal rusty red colorway that looks awfully familiar.
"Brick by Brick"-flavored Spizikes, anyone?
The "Canyon Rust" Jordan Spizike sees the super Frankenstein sneaker wrapped up in this washed red shade, covering everything from its cushy interior to its rubber Jordan-branded sole.
The monochromatic color scheme evokes the feels of Nigel Sylvester's "Brick by Brick" Jordan 4 collaboration, which dropped (and quickly sold out) in March. However, the Spizikes aren't the same exact colorway as Sylvester's pairs (the BMX athlete's Jordan sneakers dropped in an exclusive "Firewood Orange" shade, made just for his team-up).
Either way, for those who couldn't cop Sylvester's sought-after Jordan 4 shoes at retail, the "Canyon Rust" Spizikes might be the closest thing to them.
The Spizike model was designed as a homage to Spike Lee, one of the greatest directors of all time, Stone Island model, and Hollywood's biggest Jordan fan. The almost-20-year-old Jumpman-branded shoe even features Brooklyn and Lee's 40 Acres and Mule logos on the heels.
What makes this Jordan model even more special is its build. The Spizike is basically five Jordan models mashed together, including the Air Jordan 3, Jordan 4, Jordan 6, Jordan 9, and Jordan 20.
As it pulls the traditional design details from these signature shoes, the Spizike naturally borrows an outfit or two, giving us Spizikes in legendary colorways like the famously stealthy "Black Cat" and "Infrared" color schemes.
Oh, and "Brick by Brick," too.
By the way, the "Canyon Rust" Jordan Spizike Low sneakers are now up for grabs at Shoe Palace for $160. And for those interested in copping, I'd act fast if I were you.
These "Brick by Bricks at home" are already sold out in some sizes.
