AKATC/Release Date Reminder: A Closer Look at the Upcoming Jordan Brand "Black" Spiz'ike to Release, Jan. 27th
Jan 19, 2007 | Comments 60
Building on the momentum created by their "White" Spiz'ike, Jordan Brand is set to release the Spike Lee collaboration in Black next Saturday, Jan. 27th. Like the first Spiz'ike, the "Black" Spiz'ike is a combination of the Jordan III, IV, V, VI, IX, and XX. Unlike the first Spiz'ike though, the "Black" Spiz'ike does not feature the Mars illustration or the "40 Acres and a Mule" logo on the rear. The Jordan Spiz'ike will be a LIMITED NATIONWIDE release, accounts that received the DMP SHOULD (very very likely) receive the "Black" Spiz'ike as well.

FUGLY
Waiting patiently, somewhat impatiently, for these.
Already copped some Ecko "40 Acres & a Mule" clothing to go with them.
F Spike Lee -- He hates Whites.
better thab the other ones, have to deff. cop
These r crazy ill..good job on these
These joints are crazy I got my white pair..omg i just
love'em. I gotta say tho the white spiz'ike are better lookin' than these but IDK i think i'm startin' to like these too...the more & more I look at'em..damn they fine.
Man those are a disgrace to jordans.. They look like dubs on steroids.... simply the ugliest things I have seen thus far by jb....
Sweet !!!! They are way better in person.
Imagine if the green was black ored? Ooh wee the joints would be that heat baby. I didn't like the first spiz'ike but I like these even with the green.
i love spike!!! RBG fo life!! these shoes are sick!
one of the most ugly Jordans They have ever came up with.
DAMN I CANT WAIT UNTIL I GET MY HANDS ON AT LEAST 3 PAIRS OF THE BLK SPIZ'IKE.IF PEOPLE WERE GOING CRAZY 4 THE LASER 5'S YOU CAN JUST IMAGINE THE CHAOS FOR THESE JOINTS.IM GETTING MINES BUT WILL YOU?????????????
just as bad as the first ones. why even release them again. most people just bought cuz of hype. hype is the reason most ugly but limited colorways of jordans sell. just look at the laser 5s. hype is the reason these will sell too.
terrible. plz cop the black/metallic Vs instead of these if you havent already
those kicks R sick!
Not an original model. By the way i'll try too cop them out even if for me they ' re the AIR JORDAN : FRANKENSTEIN PROJECT.
Black colour style better than white one.
VL
These joints are fire....tha white ones are ugly but them bein all black even with tha lil bit of green are still dope...I got my connects and deff gonna cop em

Dude you must b brazy or something, you must get paid ta hate on these joints because believe it or not paid or not
i just can't hate on these joints, they !JUST! to hot kid.
Look at the design for gods sake its price less how can you hate ,compare this shoe to whatever you consider the best i'm pretty sure this shoe looks better TRUST ME IT DOES.
I really like how my comments NEVER make it onto this board [BS]. Anyway, as I said previously... in reference to "A" (comment 13) are you a "hype" if you purchase a shoe that others dislike? I'm pretty sure you'll say no. Same applies here (and for most). The word "hype/hypebeast" is just as played out as "hater" is. Because a person likes a shoe YOU don't like, doesn't make them a "hype" and vice versa... remember that.
@ Vic: Exactly! People should still admire the crafstmanship of this shoe. They look MUCH BETTER than the white Spiz'ike, as well as the Dub Zero's. I really can't believe they're being compared, aside from the fact of the meshing of other Jordan shoes.
i get what the green is for now. he's throwin it up for us RBG's out there. thats whats my brother Spike. keep it Revolutionary But Gangsta.
-smh @ Scottyrob... welcome back to planet Earth.
These are a world better than those white ones. Still, they have too much going on. I would rather have the old black Laser IV's than than break bread on these.
look just right 4 me
whacc
I don't think any of you are lookin' at the same shoe i am.
Whites look ways better, the placement of the colors make that true. The blacks are some what the opposite of it if your lookin' at the colors. In my eyes the whites just look
better & maybe just maybe thats why they choose to put them
out first instead of the blacks. If you disagree wit me
just let me think what i wanna think, OK.
WHITES ARE BETTER LOOKING I DON'T GIVE A FU$K WHAT YOU THINK
THEY ARE BETTER I'M TELLIN" YA THEY ARE.
When I went to pick up the black Jordan V on Saturday at my local Foot Locker, they said they will be getting the Spiz'ikes in next weekend. Can't decide yet if the kicks are ugly or not.
yo i never bought jays in my life but i like these fuc the hype i think they are raw...big up spike lee
better than the white joints with the mexican colors.
i disagree with vic entirely. them white midsoles are death-- they yellow like pee the even if you dont wear them.
What the Fu$k is wrong wit you jojo?
You just bing the ill hater right now,get off the Hateraode.
The Blacks have the same colors as the Whites do, there
just arranged in differant places.All ya'll haters out
there talkin' that $hi* bout dey look like christmas, &
mexican colors[ theres no black in the Mexican flag if thats what your saying jojo] Stop hating you can't
design a better shoe anyways so shut the Fu$k up, already.
================>WHITES LOOK BETTER PERIOD
nice i hope my spot get them
MAN CAN'T WAIT FO THESE 2 DROP..20 TIMES BETTA DEN DA WITE ONES..DEFF..COPPING

These joints will b perfect 4 my collection of xclusive kixs, it'll look good with my orange huffs
I will kill for a pair if I have 2.....
are there going to release in GS (big kids) sizes?
Yo could some1 tell spike lee 2 go watch a knicks game or somethin n tell him 2 stop doin diz kickz becuz these r horrible just seein them makes me want 2 puke
I HATE WHEN PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THE COLORS. DO YOUR REASERACH ON THESE SHOES AND YOU'LL KNOW EXACTLY WHY THE COLORS ARE ON THE SHOE. AND WHAT MOST PEOPLE ALREADY DUBBED THE "LANEY III's" ARE ACTUALLY MARS BLACKMON III's. THERES A REASON WHY THOSE COLORS ARE ON THOSE SHOES TOO.
I WILL BE GETTIN THESE BAD BABIES!!!...
GoDFaDDa, Spike didn't "hand make" these. They're a compilation of his FAVORITE Jordan shoe, as well as the shoes he had a hand in, as far as the "Money & Mars" Nike ads go... dumb dumb.
Anyway, my pair will be on reserve pretty soon... OH YES!
I GOT TO HAVE THEM AND WILL SO WEN DO THA WHITE ONES COME OUT I WILL B GRABIN THOSE ALSO.......
GODFADDA N TO EVERYBODY ELSE WHO DONT LIKE THEM... THESE ARE GONNA BE CLASSICS ,....THEYRE HOTT IM GETTIN A PAIR.. ONCE PEOPLE START SEEING THESE CLASSICS IN PERSON AND SEE PEOPLE WEARING THEM THEY GONNA WISH THEY COP'D A PAIR CUZ BELIEVE ME SIDE STOREZ ARE GONNA OVER CHARGE 3x THE ORGINAL PRICE
