The “Cool Grey” Jordan Spizikes were first spotted on the feet of Michael Jordan himself numerous times, but first world of a public release came on the website of Paris based Opium…not a good sign for US heads. The shoes were a European exclusive and retailed for a whopping 140€ Even with the steep price, it wasn’t too high for some US heads who used European connects to get their pairs.

The Cool Grey Spiz’ikes feature a first for the shoe - a clear outsole. This touch is a favorite for many heads, but like a double edged sword, the sole will eventually turn yellow.

The Cool Grey Spizikes eventually released in the US at a retail price of $175.
