[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Jordan Spizikes has been around for a very long time, first appearing in 2006. The shoe has always been a combination of various Jordan Retros such as the 3s, 5s, 6s and more! Featuring bits and pieces to all of the fans’ favorites! I had the pleasure of wearing the Jordan Spizike Low for the past few weeks and I must admit, I haven’t wore any other shoes aside from them! I fell in love with the shoe upon opening the shoe box and was greeted with its vibrant colors. Some may prefer shoes that are more muted in colors tones but I can always appreciate a nice vibrant shoe, especially since summer is around the corner. These would be a very nice shoe to be wearing on a casual summer day near the beach with a cool drink in your hands to match its vibes! While the shoe may feel stiff upon its first few wears, like many shoes, it takes some time to break into. Now I’m not saying these are the MOST comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn, but after breaking them in after wear them, they’re a shoe you can wear casually wherever and whenever you want. The sizing and fitting into these shoes felt true to size, perhaps even to the tighter side when you first wear them. But as stated previously, the shoe will mild to your feet after a good few wears, hence making them a bit more comfortable. Nevertheless, the shoe feels very well made and built. It feels very sturdy in my hands as I was feeling around the shoe and its materials. I believe these will last me a long time and I will get my usage out of them. The shoe features a variety of materials on the upper. You can find the iconic elephant print that’s found on Jordan 3s, the wings on the sides like the Jordan 4s, and the webbed mesh like on the Jordan 5s. Additionally, the shoe itself is a leather shoe, which if you’re a clean freak like I am, leather shoes are very easy to clean! Overall, the shoe itself is a very nice shoe that is worth a try if you’re a fan of Jordan Retros. After all, you are getting a shoe that is a mash up of a combination of different retros into one! If there was something I’d like to help make better, however, I wished the comfortability of the shoe would’ve been better. Although Jordan’s has never been known for their comfortability, I wished the team renovate the insoles or the midsoles of the shoes to feel a bit easier for the feet upon its first usage. While I do believe the shoe itself is for select people, I think the shoe is a really solid pick for Jordan wearers. So if you know a friend or family member who are fans of the Jordan retros or if they’re just a fan of vibrant colored shoes, I think these would be a really good gift for them! I’d give them a 7.5/10 with room to grow if the comfortability of the shoes becomes better!
