Jordan 1 Mid ‘Shattered Backboard’

The Air Jordan 1 Mid ‘Shattered Backboard’ brings to life a legendary moment in basketball history with a colorway inspired by the jersey Michael Jordan wore during a game in which he shattered a backboard. This edition of the sneaker features a vibrant and eye-catching combination of orange, black, and white, capturing the essence of that unforgettable dunk.

Constructed from high-quality leather, the upper of the ‘Shattered Backboard’ alternates between stark black and vivid orange panels, with clean white sections serving to accentuate the bold colors further. This striking color blocking not only makes a visual impact but also pays homage to the iconic original Air Jordan 1 silhouette, maintaining a balance between retro appeal and contemporary style.

The black overlays wrap around the toe, extending through the eyestay and around the heel, while orange panels brighten the toe box, Swoosh, and ankle collar. The mid-panel and midsole are rendered in crisp white, providing a sharp contrast that highlights the dynamic design of the shoe. The classic perforated toe box enhances breathability, making the sneaker both stylish and functional.

True to its roots, the ‘Shattered Backboard’ features the iconic Air Jordan Wings logo on the lateral side of the ankle and a Nike Swoosh on each side, crafted in the characteristic orange that ties back to the theme. The mid-top design offers a perfect blend of ankle support and flexibility, suitable for both athletic activities and casual wear.

Underfoot, a durable white midsole houses an Air-Sole unit in the heel for comfortable cushioning and impact absorption. The rubber outsole, matching the midsole in white, is designed with a deep tread pattern for excellent traction and stability on various surfaces.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid ‘Shattered Backboard’ is more than just a sneaker; it’s a celebration of a pivotal moment in sports history, reimagined in a colorway that stands out as much today as it did on the basketball court. Perfect for collectors and casual wearers alike, it offers both a striking look and timeless comfort, making it a versatile addition to any sneaker collection.
