The Air Jordan 3 "Black Cat" Is Rumored To Return Next Year

The rumor mill continues to spin as seemingly each week we have word of new Air Jordan releases to come. Looking ahead to later this year, one rumor that sparked much interest amongst sneakerheads revolves around a “Black Cat” colorway of the Air Jordan 5. Now, the dynamic duo of zSneakerHeadz and Sneaker Files is back with a report that the “Black Cat” take on the Air Jordan 3 will be returning in 2025.

Having first released in 2007 (a pair from that drop is pictured above) after the previous year’s Air Jordan 4 bearing the theme, the Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat” is a colorway that fetches a pretty penny nowadays on secondhand markets. While we don’t have a first look at 2025’s pair just yet, it’s confirmed to have a color arrangement of “Black,” “Dark Charcoal” and “White.” Look for it to also sport its predecessor’s unique details such as its elephant print laces and mixed material build.

At the time of writing, Jordan Brand has not confirmed that the “Black Cat” colorway of the Air Jordan 3 is in fact returning next year. Stay tuned for updates, including a first look at the sneaker, as it is currently rumored to be releasing in March of 2025 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a likely starting price of $210 USD.
