Leave it the folks at Jordan Brand to find a way to incorporate a new concept to a classic silhouette to bring us something like the Air Jordan 6 Retro ‘Spizike’. The nickname and color way speaks for it self especially if you know back story and history of it all. Borrowing the university red, green, and white from the Jordan Spizike ‘OG’ color way, this upcoming weekend is your chance to grab a piece of history.
If you need to brush up on the purpose of this release the folks at Foot Locker have provided some release details and much needed detailed pictures to give you guys a sense on whether they are a DEF Cop or DEF Not.
The newest colorway of the Air Jordan 6 Retro is a tribute to Spike Lee and his 40 Acres and a Mule production company. The Air Jordan 6 Retro amplifies the Varsity Red and Classic Green accents from the original Jordan Spizike, with an all Varsity Red upper and hints of Classic Green along with a white midsole and translucent outsole. The collar print is taken from the Air Jordan XX, created the same time that the OG Jordan Spizike was designed. If you’re interested in copping a pair this weekend, check out our release details below.
