In the summer of 1985, Michael Jordan joined Nike in an exhibition game in Italy, donning black and orange jerseys while showcasing his GOAT-in-the-making talents to the European fanbase. During that run, Jordan dropped thirty points and ended up shattering a backboard with a vicious one-handed dunk. But thanks to an impressive sneaker release in 2015, this random side-quest went from forgotten tidbit in MJ history to a moment forever frozen in time. Since then, the black\/orange pairing has been quickly dubbed the Shattered Backboard, cementing itself among the most revered colorways in Air Jordan history.<\/p>\n
As one of the eleven breath-taking lots in the Stadium Goods x Christies ORIGINAL AIR event, the actual Shattered Backboard Air Jordan 1s are being auctioned, with final bids projected to reach as high as $850,000. This is the exact pair that Michael Jordan wore during that game so authentic that a piece of the actual backboard glass still remains embedded in the left shoe.
