Nike Air Jordan Spizike 'Cool Grey' Release Date Schedule, Pics and Retail Price

Chris RolingMay 18, 2015

The Jordan Spizike returns Wednesday with the "Cool Grey" iteration of the sleek modern design.

"Wolf Grey" came out last December to lofty praise, so Nike thought it wise to dip back into the well with a darker offering splashed with blacks, whites and grays just in time for summer.

Here are the release details to know, via Nike.com:

Nice Kicks provides a look at the newest offering, with the can't-miss tongue design and Jumpman logo drawing the eye right away:

Like the colorways before it, the "Cool Grey" combines several prior Jordan iterations, this time slapping it with a paint-like design and elephant print to sleek results.

SneakerFiles.com provides a closer look at the side of the shoe, which draws the eye for its Oreo-esque array of colors and mesh:

Sneaker Shouts places it in a complementary environment, a small sampling proving the kicks are of the everyday variety:

Among many features, the black upper is hard to miss. A top-down look, which SneakerNews.com provides, shows off the matching design of the inside, including the 30 with the Jumpman logo:

The appeal of the creative design doesn't stop there, either.

The back of the shoe offers the wraparound design and a Brooklyn decal on one shoe for good measure. Nikeblog.com zooms in on the hard-to-miss feature:

Sometimes, a certain design of shoe has one too many iterations, even giving the biggest of sneakerheads a bit of fatigue and looking elsewhere for their fix. It's a tightrope companies must be careful to balance. 

This isn't one of those cases.

In fact, some may argue this is the best offering of the Jordan Spizike to date—a head-turning shoe splashed with modern design and the comfort to wear anywhere but the performance to take the hard court, too. It also fits well with the scorching heat of summer on approach.

Sometimes, the best comes last no matter how many came before.

Wednesday's release of the Nike Air Jordan Spizike "Cool Grey" is one of those cases.
