The Air Jordan 4 Black Cat is the official reissue of one of the iconic colorways, whose name refers to Michael Jordan's nickname. The all-black version of the model has appeared in the past—the 2006 release remains a reference point for collectors—but the 2025 version brings back that minimalist, stealth aesthetic in full sizes (from men's to toddler). The reissue officially released on November 28, 2025 , as part of Jordan Brand's regular retro releases. If you're looking for a versatile shoe to rotate with, both winter outfits and minimalist outfits, the Black Cat is the perfect option. At Aplug, you can find verified pairs with a guarantee of authenticity , ready to wear without compromise.

The design features a nearly monochromatic silhouette in deep black . The upper, crafted from soft nubuck, offers a matte, velvety finish, broken only by a matte graphite shade on the plastic elements. The AJ4's signature mesh inserts on the forefoot and sides are kept in blackout tones, creating a camouflage effect. Plastic hardshell eyestays (triangular "wings") and lace-lock panels in black, a glossy logo on the heel, and a visible graphite Jumpman on the tongue complete the aggressive, minimalist aesthetic. The midsole includes an integrated Visible Air unit in the heel , while the rubber outsole with the model's classic tread pattern guarantees decent traction on urban surfaces.

The Air Jordan 4 Black Cat is a lifestyle shoe with basketball roots that serves as a versatile wardrobe staple. It's perfect as a workhorse—it pairs well with heavier winter outfits with black jeans, a leather jacket, or a down jacket, but it can also emphasize the monochromatic minimalism of an outfit with high-fashion elements. For streetwear looks, we recommend all-black outfits (black parka, beanie) as the focal point—the Black Cat then becomes the anchor pair that "grounds" the entire outfit. Due to the nubuck, it's best to avoid heavy rain without proper waterproofing; ideal for dry and colder months.

What are the features of the Air Jordan 4 Black Cat?

• Deep Black Nubuck - The soft, matte texture holds its shape and requires gentle care and waterproofing before first use; it provides a premium, stealth vibe and natural protection from slight cold.
• Blackout mesh netting panels enhance ventilation in the forefoot without compromising the monochromatic aesthetic.
• Plastic hardshell eyestays and support wings in black - function as structural support for the lacing, allowing for a strong lockdown when lacing; creating a "tactical" feel.
• Visible Air in the heel - Pressurized air provides real-world cushioning and noticeable dampening with every step; a familiar AJ4 element with built-in collectible value.
• PU foam midsole - Provides structure, stability and comfort while wearing; Jordan Brand's classic approach to cushioning.
• Rubber outsole with a classic tread pattern - guarantees decent traction on urban surfaces and easy to keep clean thanks to the black color.
• Graphite accents on the tongue and heel (Jumpman, logo) - subtle contrasts that create depth in the black colorway without any "noise" in the design.

How to choose the size of the Air Jordan 4 Black Cat?

The Air Jordan 4 fits true to size (TTS) for most users—the model is consistent with the standard. Those with wider feet or those who prefer extra toe room should consider 0.5 size up. The nubuck and lining require a short break-in period when first wearing them—thicker socks to start with will make the adjustment much easier. If you're hesitating between two sizes, choose a half-size up—it's easier to add an insole than to struggle with too-tight nubuck that will feel tight.
