[Update 17 Sep 2024] Mark your calendars! According to @solesavy, the Nike Air Jordan 1 High OG “Shattered Backboard” is set for a release on 30 September 2025. Stay tuned for any updates prior to the launch.

As the Nike Air Jordan 1’s 40th anniversary looms on the horizon, speculation has run rampant, encompassing everything from a redux of the quintessential “Bred” colorway to more opulent collaborations with Swarovski, and reinterpretations of classic palettes such as the “Reverse Shadow” and “UNC Reimagined”.

The latest chapter in this unfolding narrative centers on a potential return of the beloved “Shattered Backboard” colorway. Originally introduced in 2015 as a homage to Michael Jordan’s legendary dunk, this color scheme, characterized by its bold interplay of Black, Starfish, and Sail, has enjoyed enduring popularity. So iconic, the palette has been revisited in various iterations, including a recent player exclusive on the Nike BOOK 1.

Should Jordan Brand officially confirm this release, expect a recreation of the 2015 model, complete with a premium leather construction. As with all high-profile releases, the 2025 “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1 is likely to command a significant price point and generate intense demand. Nevertheless, stay tuned for more details and images in the coming weeks!
