The Air Jordan 1 GS “Shattered Backboard 3.0” is the youth sizing of one of the more coveted non-original Air Jordan 1 colorways. Using an overseas exhibition game during Michael Jordan’s rookie NBA season for its inspiration, the “Shattered Backboard 3.0” colorway uses a similar color scheme as its predecessors and applies a few key subtle tweaks. Crinkled patent leather now replaces standard leather found on the first two versions of the shoe. A black glossy leather covers the mid-panel, forefoot, and ankle collar with bold contrasting orange leather appearing on the Swoosh branding over the mid-panel, as well as on the perforated toe and lateral panel. Swapping out a white rubber midsole for a more throwback cream colored design keeps in spirit with the nostalgic vibes of the “Shattered Backboard” series. Release date: October 26th, 2019.
