Editor’s Notes: The Nike Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard 1.0” saw a limited pre-launch at atmosCon in Tokyo, Japan at the beginning of the month and will now be available at Nike and a number of retailers. While this is the third men’s Air Jordan 1 High that takes inspiration from the iconic MJ moment, there was also a satin women’s version, which dropped in May 2018, as well as a Air Jordan 1 low that dropped earlier this year.
Why is the sneaker called Shattered Backboard?
The name “Shattered Backboard” comes from a moment after Michael Jordan’s rookie season, in the summer of 1985, when he played in an exhibition game in Italy. Jordan, wearing the orange, black, and white of Stefanel Trieste, hit a dunk so hard he shattered the glass backboard. Check out the famous moment below.
