The 2025 iteration of the Air Jordan 3 Retro GS 'Black Cat' uses black nubuck on the upper, matching it with a patent leather mudguard and contrasting it with charcoal elephant-print overlays on the forefoot and heel areas. The Jumpman emblem decorates the tongue and molded heel tab to keep the iconic look. A matching black foam midsole gets a glossy finish, tooled with an Air-sole heel unit for a resilient feel.
