After a two year hiatus, one of the most polarizing Jordan shoes ever created is back for another retro run. In 2005, Jordan Brand paved a new lane by debuting the Jordan Dub Zero, the Jumpman’s first ever hybrid model. The years that followed saw the release of several other “Frankenstein” shoes like the Spiz’ike among others, all of which helped define one of the more peculiar eras in Jordan Brand’s history in the years following MJ’s playing days.
