Jordan 1 Retro Reverse Shattered Backboard
Product code: 555088-113
The Reverse Shattered Backboard Air Jordan 1 Retro, also referred to as the Shattered Backboard 2.0, presents a fresh interpretation of the beloved Jordan silhouette. Its roots trace back to a pivotal moment in basketball history: Michael Jordan's legendary slam dunk during a Nike exhibition game in 1985, where he shattered the backboard. What makes this colorway unique is that Jordan played for both teams during the game, making the Reverse Shattered Backboard Jordan 1 a fitting tribute. Interestingly, the iconic dunk occurred while Jordan was wearing black and orange jerseys. The second team, donning white-based jerseys, links to MJ's memorable stop in Italy, hence the connection to this colorway.
Officially labeled as Sail/Starfish-Black, the color scheme serves as the reverse of the Black/Starfish-Sail release from June 2015. Both iterations pay homage to Jordan's rookie year and the unforgettable moment captured on YouTube. As a testament to its enduring legacy, the shattered backboard Jordan moment is poised to be remembered for generations to come.
