[Update 23 Jan 2025] Originally rumored for release as early as the Holiday 2024, the Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro “Black Cat” finally launched on 11 January 2025. This release date was adjusted from an initial Spring 2025 projection, then a March 2025 window, and later a 25 January 2025 date.

The shoe was available in a full family size run, with adult pairs retailing for US$200, grade school for US$150, preschool for US$90, and toddler for US$75. Leading up to the release, various images surfaced, including on-feet looks from @yankeekicks and official photos from retailers like size?.

The “Black Cat” moniker might not be the most popular nickname one would refer to the great Michael Jordan, but nonetheless, it has translated well into the Air Jordan series. According to @zsneakerheadz and @sneakerfiles, the Nike Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat” is set to return next year.

About the Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro “Black Cat” (2025), CT8532-001

First dropping all the way back in 2007, the AJ3 “Black Cat” is one of the most desired colorways of the silhouette, and for good reason. It embodies MJ’s stealthy yet agile playstyle, paying homage to his alpha predatory vibes back in the day.

An all-black hue covers the entirety of the sneaker’s nubuck upper, with matching tonal elephant prints adorning the heel and toebox. The only form of contrast arrives on the outsole, where you can find a white Jordan logo embedded into it.
