The Air Jordan 1 is the most recognizable silhouette in footwear history, celebrating its fortieth anniversary with exciting releases. Among these is the anticipated return of the ‘Shattered Backboard’ colorway, first released in 2015. This iconic design was inspired by Michael Jordan’s legendary dunk that shattered a backboard during an exhibition game, and has since become a collector’s item due to its rich storytelling and limited availability. After nearly ten years of silence on this colorway, Jordan Brand’s revisit to the ‘SBB’ comes with rumors of a July 12th, 2025 release, coinciding with the shoe’s anniversary. The hype surrounding the ‘Shattered Backboard’ has consistently kept it in the spotlight, commanding high prices on the resale market and engaging sneaker enthusiasts. Stay tuned for more updates as images of the new release surface, keeping the legacy of this beloved sneaker alive.
