The Air Jordan 1 "Shattered Backboard" Returns in Full Family Sizing Fall 2025

According to @solesavy/x, a decade after its initial drop, the Nike Air Jordan 1 High OG "Shattered Backboard" is slated to make a triumphant return in 2025, commemorating its 10th anniversary. Esteemed as one of the finest non-collaborative Jordan 1 releases, this sneaker continues to captivate fans with its vibrant and historically inspired colorway.

The "Shattered Backboard" colorway pays homage to Michael Jordan’s legendary dunk during a 1985 exhibition game in Italy, where his forceful slam shattered the glass backboard. This moment is forever immortalized in the sneaker's striking design, featuring a compelling blend of sail, orange, and black. The mid-body’s sail hue paired with vivid orange paneling beautifully contrasts against the stark black swoosh and detailing, creating a visually stunning sneaker that stands out in any collection.

As with its previous releases, the 2025 "Shattered Backboard" is expected to feature premium leather construction, maintaining the high standards of Jordan Brand craftsmanship. The iconic color scheme not only echoes the energy and intensity of Jordan’s dunk but also captures the essence of his impact on the sport and sneaker culture.

Solesavy reports that this Air Jordan 1 High OG "Shattered Backboard" is expected to release in before 2025 ends, and should be available in adult and children's sizes via Nike.com.

The pair features a shattered glass box as seen via images below credits to prospectatlanta.
