The Drop
The Jordan 4 Retro Black Cat returns in 2025 as a GS-exclusive drop, keeping the triple-black stealth aesthetic that made the original 2020 adult release a sleeper hit. No flashy collabs here—just murdered-out nubuck, tonal mesh panels, and that iconic Jumpman silhouette in a size run for younger feet. It's the same monochrome energy sneakerheads loved, now scaled down for the next generation of collectors.
Resell Verdict
Currently flipping around $173 with asks ranging from $131 to $211—solid margin territory if you copped retail. With over 1,000 weekly orders, demand is steady but not explosive; this isn't a quick-flip hype beast. Expect stable-to-gradual appreciation as GS sizes typically hold value better long-term than adult pairs in saturated colorways. Not a brick, not a moonshot—just reliable rotation stock.
Fake Tells
- ▸Nubuck texture: Reps often use flat, plasticky suede instead of the buttery, dense nubuck Jordan Brand nails
- ▸Heel tab stitching: Check for clean, even spacing around the Jumpman logo—fakes rush this and leave loose threads
- ▸Midsole paint: Authentic pairs have crisp black midsole edges; bootlegs bleed or show grey undertones
Who It's For
Perfect for resellers targeting parents hunting grails for their kids, or young collectors building their first rotation. Works year-round as a beater or flex—Schule, skatepark, wherever.
Sizing & Fit
Jordan 4s run true to size in GS builds. If the kid's between sizes, go up for growing room.
