At around $170 USD retail (good luck!), it was a steal. At resale, you're paying for legacy and unmatched style. I don't regret my pair one bit – but I'm giving you the real, "unfiltered" review. Hope it helps! Is it worth the resale? That's the real question. As a retail grab, absolutely. For current prices? That's personal. The craftmanship on this Jordan 1 is top-tier, making it a grail for many. But there are great colorways for less. Weigh your love for the story (and that orange!) against your budget. Final thoughts: Yes, I'd recommend the "air jordan 1 shattered backboard" — but with clear expectations. For ~$220 USD, you get an all-timer colorway that "always" gets compliments. Just know it’s stiff, it creases, and it’s hyped. It’s not for everyone, but for the right person? It’s an absolute grail. That’s my genuine take Let's be critical for a sec. A possible con? That beautiful orange suede/nubuck on some panels can be a magnet for dirt and stains. You gotta be a bit careful. Also, since it's such a beloved colorway, prices can get steep resale. At retail, it's a great grab. At a high resale? You have to really, "really" love it. It's a lifestyle shoe through and through, not a performance pick.
