On that triumphant summer day back in 1985 when Michael Jordan<\/a> shattered a backboard during an exhibition game in Italy, he had no idea that over 30 years later it would be a central story note that inspired not only a re-release of his first signature shoe, but a budding colorway of his thirty-first.<\/p>\n But it is, and next weekend both the Air Jordan 1<\/a> and Air Jordan 31<\/a> “Shattered Backboard” will carry the legendary vignette along. Here, though, according to Jordan Brand, the story takes a bit of a turn where the Air Jordan 1 is concerned.<\/p>\n It’s said that the “Reverse Shattered Backboard” actually pays tribute to the opposing team’s uniforms, not Jordan’s. The Air Jordan 31\u00a0is more traditional in its inspiration, as Starfish\/Black take the tonal lead.<\/p>\n Take a look at official images of both pairs below and let us know if you plan to cop on the shared October 8 Jordan Release Date<\/a>.<\/p>\n
