JORDAN 6 SPIZIKE

 
On the Footlocker Australia website release calendar there is two different shoes releasing on the 9[sup]th[/sup] of August. A Spizike and a Jordan 6,  both releasing on the 9[sup]th[/sup] of August 2014.

QS Jordan Retro VI ‘Do the right thing’ (varsity red/classic green-black-white). The Jordan 6 cost $219.95 Australian dollars which is how much GR Jordan's cost here.

QS Jordan Spizike ‘Do the right thing’ (white/varsity red/cement grey): The Spizike cost $239.95 Australian dollars which is more than a Jordan GR retro costs.
LOL they charge more for a hybrid? AUS for the win.
 
Yeah its crazy that the Spizikes are more expensive then the 6s in Australia, especially since the 6s will sell out instantly and the Spizikes will sit, like they always do.
 
Since we're already talking about 6's. What's your guys opinion on the fit?

I bought my Carmines in a 9,5 but I feel like I could of went down to a 9 because they are on the longer side. I have some heel flip-flop action if I don't tie them or wear a thick sock.

What happens when I go down 0,5? It will get a bit narrower right? How noticeable will this be? I have a wide foot, but not extremely wide.

Spiz'ikes used to be more than retros here in the US too until the retail of retros shot up in the last few years.

Wouldn't be surprised if Jordan Brand tried to up their retail again.

weren't spikes 170 or 175 when the first released?
And from what I read the 6s were being released to tie in w the spikes , color blocking and their interior. 5 lace lock may because spikes also use the 5 model in their design and its something else jb is using as a gimmick
 
Just catching up on this thread. So these are Retro 6 Spizike because of the Retro 5 lace locks? Everything else on the shoe resembles a retro 6.

Yeah and the spizike is retroing in its first cw also which shares the same colors as the VI so I guess the VIs are commemorating the retro of the first spizike cw
 
A 6 can't be commemorating a spizike tho. These are just 6s and Spizikes Releasing as history of jordan or do the right thing kicks what ever name it is. 5 lace locks ain't happening, and retail box will have no mention of spizike on a 6 box.
 
I'm pretty sure that these are the spizike VIs tho I mean the tmcii guy was the first guy to post pics of the box label and have the V lace lock on it compared to all the other people that had them and posted pics

^ logic would say that including ndc's calendar is still calling it a vi, but it's beginning to look like the opposite. The style code does not share the normal VI models.
Actually I don't even know what a Spizike really is, I've heard hybrids? But for the few that I've ever seen online, I was already on the fence with these, so no thanks. Good luck fellas.

I know it looks different but I have to believe what I'm use to until I see it differently for sure. And spizikes are basically elements of the 3s,4s,5s,6s, and 9s rolled into one concept.
 
if this is the history of the spizikes cw that mean that the cw will be on the 3, 4, 5, 6, (obviously), 9, and 20. only time will tell
 
I have mixed emotions about these. I love all red kicks, but I'm unsure of the colors...

i can see how the spizikie theme ties into this with the interior of the shoe the same pattern as the spizike plus the 5 lace lock, but they leather looks NICE on these. these were a cop when i first laid on my on them on dj khaleds feet
 
Really want these but checking the launch locator for champs the closest store is an hour away and they're probably doing raffles like usual.

best bet is to always call the Monday of release week. Stores vary between raffles and fcfs. Champs is actually my go to for fcfs cause I simply don't win raffles.
