SNEAKER REVIEW - JORDAN SPIZ'IKE "COOL GRAY"

This 2008 version of Spiz'ike utilizes a tonal gray approach and released around the same time as the more lively colored Nelly Spiz'ikes.  They were spotted on Michael Jordan's feet a few months before they dropped and seemed to get a fairly good reception upon release.  These are in my opinion one of the cleanest and thus easiest to wear colorways of this model.

MATERIALS: The light gray uppers are leather, while the darker gray parts are suede/nubuck.  They have a white and black midsole and a clear outsole.  The lacelocks are white with a black jumpman and clear housing.  They come with white laces.
FEATURES: These are featureless for Spiz'ikes and get their name from the gray colorway.
STREET VALUE: retail
MY NOTES ON ACTUALLY WEARING THESE: These are pretty comfortable. These might crease eventually, and the gray suede is a dirt magnet.  In addition, the soles appear to have yellowed at an accelerated rate after only a few wears.  Still, they continue to look great on foot, so don't let the possibility of a discolored sole turn you off from grabbing a pair of these!
