As one of the most cherished Air Jordan 4 models to date, the Air Jordan 4 "Black Cat" has become a cult classic of modern sneakers. Gaining traction as one of the easiest to style sneakers in the current sneakerhead climate, the shoe has quickly risen the ranks, showing the power of what an all-blacked out sneaker can do. Of course, it has the advantage, being a shoe that everyone can wear and put together some kind of outfit for, but the overall success of the shoe has made it undeniably. With the success comes new variations of it, even if it is not the same model.
In stores, the Nike Air Force 1 Low "Black Cat". Combining the signature triple black look of the AJ4 and the vintage black Air Force 1 Low, this shoe gives the best of both worlds for those who might not want the clunkiness of the Air Jordan model. Giving the traditional sneaker an all-suede upper, it completely replaces the vibe of the original, immediately offering a brand new identity to a classic shoe. With the fuzzy upper and double-stacked swoosh lying atop the traditional blacked-out sole, this could be a sleeper for those who might like the triple black aesthetic but want to switch up the traditional AF1 from their closet. I can easily see those who need that vibe at a smaller price point and model picking these up, although you can't go wrong with the original either.
The remix of the sneaker is slated for a Summer 2025 drop and a price point of $150.
