Spike Lee should have been on the icons list — and host Matty Ice will be the first to admit it. This episode corrects the record, diving into Spike Lee's early influence on sneaker culture, his relationship with Jordan Brand, and the shoe that came from it — the Jordan Spizike. With Nike bringing the Spizike back in 2024, it's the perfect time to explore the full lineage of Jordan hybrid models. Some are classics. Some missed the mark. All of them tell a story.
