When it comes to the Air Jordan 1 and quality, it’s usually all over the place. However, one pair that is regarded as the “best” quality is the “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1 High OG. Initially launched in 2015, to celebrate the initial release, the pair will return in 2025.
As mentioned, the first “Shattered Backboard” Jordan 1 was released in 2015. However, we have seen different variations drop throughout the years. In 2016, JB dropped the “Shattered Backboard Away,” regarded as the second-best pair. In May 2018, we saw a Satin version launch, a women’s exclusive. The last pair in the series to debut was the “Shattered Backboard 3.0” that dropped in 2019. Outside official releases, the color scheme has been used across multiple silhouettes.
The “Shattered Backboard” theme pays tribute to Michael Jordan’s dunk during a 1985 exhibition game in Italy. His uniform was in Orange and Black with White details. During the game, he would shatter the backboard, leaving glass everywhere.
This Air Jordan 1 will feature a Black, Starfish, and Sail color scheme. Although not confirmed, the leather quality is expected to be the same but has yet to be confirmed. Utilizing Sail across the base with Black leather on the overlays, ankle, Swoosh, and Wings logo. Starfish, a shade of Orange, covers the toe box, ankle overlays around the heel, Nike Air branding, and the rubber outsole. Lastly, the insoles are expected to feature shattered glass.
