Bc3s are the black Friday shoe this year most likely.

 

[rbk93]

So much releasing.

 

[therealest1]

Is that nubuck?

That's just a picture of the one that previously released in the 2000s. It's way too early for a photo of the actual 2025 version, especially with it being a little over a year away.

These may be the Off Noir III instead of the Black Cat III, according to this article from Sole Retriever.

According to Sole Retriever, the Black Cat III will not be releasing at all.

Here's what they wrote on their site:

Among the most anticipated rumors in the sneaker world regarding Jordan Brand was the re-release of the Air Jordan 3 Retro Black Cat in 2024. This classic silhouette first hit the shelves in 2007 and captivated sneakerheads with its sleek, all-black design. Despite the swirling rumors and high hopes within the community, we've received confirmation that the Air Jordan 3 Black Cat will not return in the Holiday season of 2024, nor is it currently scheduled to be released.

This news surprises many who were eagerly awaiting the chance to get their hands on this iconic pair once again. The Black Cat colorway, known for its stealthy all-black aesthetic, embodies the essence of Michael Jordan's Black Cat nickname—a nod to his quick, agile, and stealthy movements on the basketball court.

However, all is not lost for fans of the Air Jordan 3 silhouette. The Holiday 2024 season will still see a notable release from the Jordan 3 lineup but with a twist. A new Off Noir colorway is set to launch, offering a fresh take on the classic design. We also get a Reimagined take on the Jordan 3 Black Cement alongside this pair.

Although the Black Cat Jordan 3 will not return in 2024, this announcement does not rule out the possibility of its future release, although such a return is not currently scheduled. Jordan Brand has a history of surprising fans with unexpected drops and re-releases.

In the meantime, sneakerheads can look forward to the aforementioned Jordan 3 colorways, Off Noir and Black Cement Reimagined, both of which are sure to be highlights of the Holiday 2024 season.

*I'm just going to revise this thread for the Off Noir III since that seems to be the black-based III slated for holiday 2024 based on what's been reported recently.*
