Air Jordan 4 RM 'Black Cat' (2024)
Description
The Air Jordan 4 RM 'Black Cat' (2024) reinvents the iconic Air Jordan 4 silhouette with a bold, monochromatic design that pays homage to the stealth and power of the "Black Cat" nickname, a reference to Michael Jordan's alter ego. This iteration is both sleek and daring, fusing premium materials with a distinctive colorway that elevates the AJ4 legacy.
Overview
The Air Jordan 4 RM 'Black Cat' features a jet-black nubuck and leather upper that exudes a refined, high-performance feel. The sleek dark tones are complemented by matte black detailing, including the lace eyelets, mesh inserts, and the signature plastic winged eyelets, creating a streamlined, modern look. The midsole is equipped with responsive cushioning in a black finish, while the outsole’s translucent rubber reveals a subtle yet powerful design. The reinforced heel and toe sections offer exceptional durability, making this sneaker ideal for both style and functionality. Small touches, such as the reflective hits on the tongue and heel, add an understated flash of light in an otherwise deep, dark design. The addition of the “RM” (Refined Materials) tag signifies a commitment to upgraded materials, enhancing both comfort and longevity.
Key Highlights
• Premium Blacked-Out Aesthetic: The monochromatic black design, featuring nubuck, leather, and matte black elements, provides a sleek and sophisticated look that channels the legendary "Black Cat" nickname.
• Responsive Cushioning and Durable Construction: The midsole houses an Air unit, ensuring responsive cushioning, while the durable rubber outsole adds traction, making the AJ4 RM both stylish and functional.
• Iconic Jordan 4 Silhouette: This release stays true to the classic Air Jordan 4 design, combining timeless style with a modern twist through its sleek and refined colorway.

WHY OUR PRICES
The honest answer. The question we hear most: how can you sell the same sneakers for so much less? Here's the full, transparent breakdown — not a marketing line.
Where your money goes
At a boutique — $400
- The shoe itself ~15–25%
- Flagship store rent overhead
- Global advertising overhead
- Celebrity partnerships overhead
- Multi-layer distribution overhead
At Sole Dept
- The shoe itself what you pay for
- Boutique rent removed
- Advertising levy removed
- Celebrity premium removed
- Intermediary margins removed
Why we can do it
Production cost
The materials, construction and labour in a quality pair are a fraction of the boutique price. The rest is overhead and brand premium.
The retail mark-up
Brands add huge mark-ups to fund advertising, flagship stores and distribution across dozens of countries — you pay for all of it, whether you want to or not.
The Sole Dept difference
We source directly through authorised wholesale channels. Lean operating costs, and every dollar saved is passed to you at checkout.
PACKAGING & WHATS INCLUDED
Every pair arrives complete. When your order lands, it looks and feels exactly the way it should — the full retail presentation, nothing stripped out. Here's precisely what comes in the box.
What's in every order
Original branded box
Each pair ships in its correct branded shoe box with the matching size label and SKU — the same box the silhouette is meant to come in, protected inside an outer shipping carton so it arrives crush-free.
Complete original packaging
Tissue paper, silica packs, the branded wrapping and inserts that shape the shoe in transit — all present, just as you'd expect from a boutique unboxing.
Dust bags
Where the model is issued with dust bags, they're included — ideal for storing your pair, keeping it clean between wears, and travelling with it.
Extras & spares
Spare laces, alternate lace colours, replacement parts and any accessories that ship with the original — included in the box exactly as intended.
Free gift with every order
On top of the full packaging, every Sole Dept order includes a complimentary free gift as a thank-you — a small extra tucked in the box, on us.
The complete checklist
- Original branded shoe box
- Correct size & SKU label
- Tissue paper & inserts
- Dust bag(s), where issued
- Spare / alternate laces
- Included accessories & spares
- Protective outer shipping carton
- Complimentary free gift
Why it matters
Gift-ready
Because the presentation is complete, every order is ready to gift straight out of the mailer — no repackaging needed.
Protected in transit
Box-in-a-box shipping means your pair travels the way it should and reaches you in the same condition it left us.
Keeps its value
Complete original packaging, dust bags and extras help your pair hold its condition — and its resale appeal — for the long run.

- Unworn — no signs of wear on the sole, upper, or insole
- In their original box and packaging
