Is the Air Jordan 1 “Reverse Shattered Backboard” releasing at select European retailers this Saturday, October 1st? That seems to be the case as a few reputable shops have claimed that they not only have the Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard in-stock but will be releasing the pair this Saturday, an entire week ahead of schedule. While this may be an error in processing, we’ll have to wait and see if shops like Titolo suddenly postpone the drop to align with the official U.S. release on October 8th.
The Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard released an entire year ago featuring a pre-aged Sail base and accents of Starfish orange and Black to pay homage to the exhibition uniform Michael Jordan wore during an off-seasn Italy game where he shattered a backboard on one of his high-flying dunks. The color blocking was reminiscent of the Air Jordan 1 “Black Toe” and was lauded for the premium details and unique insole graphic. Now Jordan Brand is returning to that theme with the Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard featuring color distribution that more readily represents the iconic “Chicago” theme. What do you think of the look? Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for a stateside release on October 8th for $160 USD.
