The Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” Returns on Black Friday With Nike Air Branding

The Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” is officially set to return in 2025, with a Black Friday release date of November 28. This marks just five years since its last retro in 2020, but this time, Jordan Brand is elevating the release with a major update—Nike Air branding on the heel.

This marks the second non-OG, non-collaborative Air Jordan release of 2025 to feature Nike Air, following news of the Air Jordan 5 OG “35th Anniversary” also sporting the Swoosh at the heel.

Originally released in 2006 and brought back in 2020, the all-black Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” has become one of the most sought-after colorways of the silhouette. The sleek, stealthy design continues to command resale prices upwards of $1,000, solidifying its status as a modern classic.

Expect pairs to drop on November 28, 2025, via Nike SNKRS and select retailers.
