These "Black Cat" Jordan 4s Are a Different Kind of Jumpman Feline
The "Black Cat" Jordan 4s are back early. Well...sorta, kinda.
The latest "Black Cat" Jordan 4 looks a little different from the classic, and that's because it isn't the same ole Jordan 4 as before. The famous color scheme now appears on the Jordan 4 Net, an updated Air Jordan 4 model that takes the phrase "nothing but net" very seriously.
Debuted in 2024, the Air Jordan 4 Net was born to stun. The adventurous makeover includes this oversized TPU cage covering the tongue with the shoelaces on top. But inside the "cage" is the classic Jordan 4 we've loved since 1989 including most of its traditional fixings like the "wings," Air soles, and Jumpman motifs.
Again, the Jordan 4 Net even brings back one of the AJ4's cleanest colorways ever, the "Black Cat." The all-black scheme has famously graced the Air Jordan 4 and Jordan 3 models. At the same time, spin-off models like the skate-ish Jordan 4 RM have also helped keep the "Black Cat" legacy alive.
The Jordan 4 Net's got next. Consider the "Black Cat" 4s uncaged....no, wait...caged?
But beyond the net, the new Jordan 4 is pretty luxe. The sneaker features buttery premium leather uppers along with removable gleaming charms. The cage doesn't appear to be detachable. Otherwise, it wouldn't be the Jordan 4 Net!
The real-deal "Black Cat" 4s are still expected to return later this year. But if you're looking for the "Black Cats" now plus a weirdly new sneaker vibe, the black Air Jordan 4 Net is slated to release on February 26 at 10AM EST on Nike's website.
