This specific model of Jordan kicks pays homage to Spike specifically with the old school toe locks that say “Mike” and “Spike.” The style of lettering may also refer to the “Love” and “Hate” name rings that Radio Raheem wore in “Do the Right Thing.” Other nods to Spike include the multi-colored lining with Mars Blackmon’s Nike-Ad quote “Do You Know - Do You Know” printed across in a repeated pattern. Featuring some obvious Jordan staples, like the heel elephant print in gray and the Fire Red on the eyelets and sole, this model keeps it simple while giving the well-deserved respect to Spike and his contributions to the Jordan Brand over the years with his icon on the footbed with the phrase “Fresh Since 1985.” The official release date is January 2010, but marqueesole has yet another early release available now.
