Andrew Rizzo Officially previewed during the latest SNKRS Showcase, Nike is bringing back the Zoom Spiridon in its original “Metallic Silver/Black/Sport Red” makeup from 1997.
The colorway most recently saw daylight back in 2016, a release that was followed by sporadic Spiridon drops throughout the late 2010s. Focus then shifted to the Spiridon Cage 2 thanks to a re-introductory Stüssy collaboration, but aside from a one-off Fragment Design collab in 2023, it’s been all quiet on the Spiridon front for the better part of five years.
Given modern consumer’s favorability towards Y2K-era runners turned lifestyle shoes, there’s never been a better time to bring back the OG colorway. To the pleasure of sneaker purists, Nike claims to be tailoring the Holiday 2024 pair to the exact specifications of the original 1997 cut, although hidden performance and comfort upgrades are a possibility. Moreover, the news thrusts the upcoming the addition of Nike Air branding means this premium remastered back into the newswire.

The Spiridon OG “Metallic Silver/Black/Sport Red” is officially returning Holiday 2024.
