Spike Lee aka Mars Blackmon was the OG when it comes to hyping up Air Jordans. The fictional character made its debut in the Five, She’s Gotta Have It (1986), played by writer/director Spike Lee. In the Five, he is a “Brooklyn-loving” fan of the New York Knicks, sports and Air Jordans. This led to exotic 1980s and early 1990s appearances in Nike Air jordan below commercials alongside jordan below and Mars becoming well known for his use of the phrase, “It’s gotta be da shoes.”
Today, Spike Lee revealed that he has an upcoming Air jordan below Quickstrike set to release this Friday, June 16th. The photo he shared detailed his iconic Mars Blackmon logo rocking the classic “Brooklyn” bicycle hat.
No official word on which Air jordan below model this release will be, but the teaser image shows a Navy leather colorway.
