Nike Book 2 “Spiridon” launches on February 6

Book first laced up its “Spiridon” shoes in December 2025 and has since released multiple PE styles with the same design cues, including a “Black Tie” edition and a “Phoenix Suns” colorway. The mesh upper is paired with a synthetic mudguard, while five lace loops/ribbons extend through the mesh on each side.

The public version is based on the original ‘Metallic Silver/Sport Red/Black/White’ livery of the 1997 Spiridon, which last returned at the end of 2024 and was received surprisingly calmly. We won’t say that the Spiridon is the basis all Nike Book 2 styles, but even different compositions have somehow retained the Spiridon’s ribbons.

The Nike Book 2 “Spiridon” will release on February 6th via Nike and Nike Basketball retailers, priced at $145. Check out the retailers’ official images below and head over to our Sneaker Release Dates page to check out more upcoming basketball shoes.
