Andrew Rizzo Now that Labor Day has come and gone, it’s officially “Wheat” season. Consistent with year’s past, Nike has been busy dressing its most popular lifestyle silos for autumn in recent months, including evergreen models like the Air Force 1 and Dunk Low as well as trending cuts like the Vomero 5. Now they’re calling on “Wheat” to help re-introduce a silhouette that’s been dormant for years; the Nike Zoom Spiridon Cage 2.
With plenty credit to Stüssy, Nike gave the Spiridon Cage 2 a brief retro run at the start of the pandemic before placing it back in the archives at the end of 2020. Now nearly five years later, it appears the 2003 runner is back for another go-round. Silver and black colorways have released thus far, with more like this “Wheat” edition expected to land throughout 2024 and into the new year. The ongoing Y2K runner trend is enough reason as to why Nike would want to bring back the model, but looking ahead, the original Nike Spiridon from 1997 is expected to retro again this holiday season.
Clearly, the Spiridon Cage 2 “Wheat” is a huge aesthetic departure from traditional early 2000s colorways, many of which make use of metallic silver and flashy neons. Its monotone upper comes with leather overlays and a mixed assortment of different mesh fabrics, while “Gum Light Brown” tread hops on the heel portion of the outsole to match. Otherwise, a white midsole and “Sail” Air bubbles complete the delivery.
Nike hasn’t set a firm release date yet, but the arrival of official images suggest these will hit nike.com and retailers in the very near future. Like other current-day Spiridon Cage 2 releases, expect a retail price of $170.
