Anticipation for the Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” in August is already sky-high on an organic level, but Jordan Brand continues to add to that suspense by spinning off the now-iconic black and orange into more accessible options. Following takeovers for the Jordan 1 Low and CMFT Era, the Jordan Legacy 312 Low is the next to get in on the action.

Already owing part of it composition to the Air Jordan 1, the Legacy 312 Low is thus a natural choice to adapt the modern classic, faithfully adapting the collar/heel counter/toe contrast blocking that the 2015 edition made famous. Obviously the hardware tweaks owed to the Air Jordan 3 and Alpha Force 1 make a true replication impossible, but their residual DNA allow for this pair to stand apart from an increasingly crowded field of “Shattered Backboard” offshoots: the AJ3’s elephant print mudguard and heel tab chief among them.

The Jordan Legacy 312 Low “Shattered Backboard” should hit Nike.com and select retailers in the coming weeks, retailing at $145. Keep our Jordan Release Dates 2025 page close by for further updates on this pair and everything the brand has in store.
