Product Description
The Jordan XXX1 Black Cat is a high-top athletic shoe with a black Flyweave and leather upper, balanced by black laces that pop against white eyestays.
Part of NBA champion Michael Jordan’s legacy originated with the Nike Air Jordan 1 sneaker, which Jordan wore for the first time during the 1984 NBA season. This shoe went on to spawn a general public release and its own division at Nike. With the XXX1 Black Cat, the Jordan brand aims to capture Michael Jordan’s catlike predatorial performance on the basketball court via the shoes' lightweight feel and responsiveness. The Nike Swoosh, Jumpman, and wings logos adorn the sides and tongue in a monochrome color palette of soft black and gray. A black midsole is contrasted by a white outsole, and Black Cat branding appears inside the tongue.
In our opinion, the best feature of the Air Jordan XXX1 is its color palette, which balances monochrome black with just enough optic white. The Jordan XXX1 Black Cat released on March 10, 2017, and retailed at $185.
