Update: Word of the Air Jordan 3 "Black Cat" returning for 2025 was shared at the end of May and now we finally have a first look at the re-release. The pair looks to stay true to its 2007 original design as its all-black presentation sees tonal elephant print detailing present at the mudguards and laces. Release for the shoe is now expected to take place on January 11 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $200 USD. Stay tuned for a complete set of visuals and review our initial breakdown below for more info.

Original Story: 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.
