The Jordan 4 Retro KAWS Black sneakers, released in November 2017, are a highly coveted collaboration between the iconic Air Jordan brand and Brooklyn artist KAWS. These sneakers are a follow-up to the earlier grey colorway and feature an all-black, premium suede upper with a tonal print of KAWS' "Companion" hand motifs. The design also includes glow-in-the-dark translucent outsoles etched with the same artwork, enhancing the unique aesthetic.
Other notable details include the signature “XX” KAWS branding on the heel tabs and finely crafted stitching that emphasizes the luxurious build of the shoes. Initially thought to be exclusive to friends and family, they were made available to the public through a limited release on Cyber Monday 2017. Their exclusivity and artistic flair have made them a grail item among sneaker enthusiasts and collectors.
