The 2025 version of the Air Jordan 3 Retro ‘Black Cat’ was named after one of Michael Jordan’s pre-NBA nicknames. Sporting black nubuck on the upper, these shoes have a matching black patent leather mudguard and charcoal elephant-print forefoot and heel overlays. The Jumpman logo graces the tongue and back tab, while a foam midsole contains a visible Air-sole heel unit for a resilient feel.
