We recently dropped new images of the upcoming Air Jordan Spiz’ike Infrared, and typical of Spiz’ike-related discussions, the reader response was fifty-fifty. Here are some better detailed images of the Air Jordan Spiz’ike Infrared that might change the opinion of the detractors. The key detail of this pair is obviously the generous use of Infrared on the midsole, but take note of the white-on-white elephant print and the subtle infusion of blue. This upcoming colourway of the Air Jordan Spiz’ike is set for a May 2010 release but are available for pre-order at Kinstor.

February 28th, 2010 at 9:34 pm

February 28th, 2010 at 9:47 pm

February 28th, 2010 at 10:53 pm
man just cus you put ‘infrared’ on something doesn’t make it dope.
i like the black spizikes that just recently dropped and i’m not a spizike hater but the colorblocking is just a mess on these and the patent leather is horrible on this shoe.
ughhhhhhhhhhhhh

whoooo PASSS

I totally understand where JB is going with this Spiz’ike. This Spiz’ike is meant to pay tribute to the Black/Infared and the White/Infrared VI. Notice that instead of the V lace lock used on the other Spiz’ikes they have gone with the VI lace lock. They also added the clear sole to boot.
Each Spiz’ike released this year pays tribute to one of the shoes that make up the overall design. The white pair released in January pays tribute to the III’s. The Bred pair released in February pays tribute to IV’s. The perf grape releasing in April pays tribute to V’s. The ones above the VI’s. Finally in June they will be releasing the Black patent and Stealth Grey which will pay tribute to the XX’s.
Not sure what the meaning is behind the blue, but I’m pretty positive there is some significance behind it.

Those are fly but does anyone else find that the plastic part where the arch support is on the spiz’ike uncomfortable?
March 1st, 2010 at 7:23 am
Easy pass
March 1st, 2010 at 10:10 am
The white part of the midsole should be black. And the elephant print should be grey instead of white imo.
March 1st, 2010 at 10:11 am
@MYKULJORDAN: I def find it uncomfortable on this shoe… But its shoe to shoe though. My white and cements have a good arch support. My black, red and cements are a funny cut, and the arch support in my right foot is too tall… Already wore them out so I can’t exchange them… I guess thats the premium we pay for… I did cop a fresh pair of white leather hi-top Chuck Taylors though…
The colorway in this article is broken.
Nike/JB won’t get any more of my money until the Air Carnivores release this summer. Peace.

@Steelo Brown

(P.S.)
*I’M BEING SARCASTIC*

These shoes are horrible in my opinion. Definitely too much going with all the colors. There’s no flow just a lot of clashing.
March 1st, 2010 at 1:35 pm
i like them, something a little more unique looking. i passed on the breds… and from the looks of my local foot locker/eastbay, everyone else did too. 175 is pretty much not getting it done anymore. drop it ten bucks and it looks so much more approachable.

@ cool_kid_305
Thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to weigh on my previous post. Your smarta$$ reply was greatly appreciated.
P.S.
*I’m being sarcastic too*

March 1st, 2010 at 4:59 pm
Bred’s shit on these imo.
March 1st, 2010 at 6:50 pm
@Uncle Diggaty
Word up!
March 1st, 2010 at 10:24 pm
Going by steelo browns theory the VI’s did drop a white and september blue cw. I agree the blue does throw it off they should have just used infared instead of blue.
March 2nd, 2010 at 9:49 am
hell nah aint no way, aint gonna let you step on dz jz
March 3rd, 2010 at 1:12 am

March 3rd, 2010 at 3:12 am
