UPDATE (06/16): Jordan Brand officially confirmed today during its SNKRS live “Heating Up” event that the “Electro Orange” Jordan 1 High is releasing on July 17 on SNKRS and at select retailers for $170. UPDATE (04/23): Official Nike product images of the “Electro Orange” Air Jordan 1 High have surfaced ahead of the scheduled July 17 release date. We'll update this story with new pieces of information and a first look when it becomes available. The actual pair of Jordan 1s supposedly worn by Jordan in that game recently sold for $615,000 at auction. Two alternate variations would follow, along with a satin version of the original in women's sizing. Inspired by Michael Jordan shattering a backboard by dunking during a 1985 exhibition game in Italy, the "Shattered Backboard" Jordan 1 debuted in June 2015.


While there aren't any photos of the upcoming retro, the accompanying mock-up indicates a possible "Black Toe" make-up, somewhat consistent with the original, but with a white toe and true white side panels in place of sail. Founder and Editor of SF, Brian is considered an expert when it comes to sneakers. ZSneakerheadz reports that an Jordan 1 High in a white, orange and black colorway is on the calendar for Summer 2021.

Though it feels like Jordan Brand has gotten everything it can out of the "Shattered Backboard" concept and colorway, leaked news indicates that a fourth installment of the Air Jordan 1 High may be on the way.
