The 'Black Cat' colorway, previously featured on retro releases like the Air Jordan 3, 4, 8, and 31, made its debut on the Air Jordan 6 silhouette in 2016. This special edition was released on New Year's Eve as a year-end highlight. Setting it apart from earlier 'Black Cat' versions, the Air Jordan 6 showcases an all-leather upper, combining both smooth and perforated textures. Branding elements consist of all-black Jumpman logos on the tongue, lace overlay, and heel. Additionally, it features a distinctive Black Cat logo imprinted on the insole.
