Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” Baseball Cleats Are Available Now

Pop quiz: basketball is to shattering backboards as baseball is to what? In that hypothetical SAT question, we’d land on smashing an out-of-the-parker, though your response may vary. The Jumpman is aiming to fill in their own response for that open-ended question, as the Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” now enters the MCS baseball cleats canon.

As we’ve noted on previous similar occasions, in which the Nike property has brought icons like the Jordan 11 “Rare Air” or Jordan 11 “Legend Blue” onto the field of play, rarely does Jordan Brand stray from the MCS spiked platform in these spots, nor does it take too many creatie liberties in adapting each colorway. Both of those factors remain in place for this pair, staying true to a genuine modern classic.

As mentioned throughout this piece, the Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” MCS Baseball cleats are available now via Nike.com, retailing for $175. Grab yours using the “Where To Buy” links below and keep our Jordan Releases 2026 page within reach for more from the brand in the weeks to come.
