A new KAWS x Air Jordan 4 has entered the rumour mill. According to well-known leakers, the artist is working on a third version of the model, in a 'Dark Grey' colorway. The KAWS x Air Jordan 4 is expected to land in summer 2027.

What do we know so far? The rumoured style code is JU4624-002, and the full name is said to be KAWS x Air Jordan 4 Retro SP 'Dark Grey'. Keep in mind: Jordan Brand and KAWS haven't confirmed the release yet. That means there's no exact release date or European retail price either.
Little about the design is certain. A link to the earlier collaboration seems likely, though: suede across the entire upper, the familiar 'XX' branding on the heel, KAWS hands stitched into the upper and an outsole that glows in the dark. Whether those details return will only become clear once official images appear.
How KAWS started at Jordan
The partnership between KAWS and Jordan Brand kicked off in March 2017 with an all-grey Air Jordan 4. Suede replaced the usual leather, even on the midsole, and sketches by the artist sat beneath the translucent glow-in-the-dark sole. A black version followed in November that year. Later, KAWS also worked with Nike directly: together with sacai, he put his own spin on the Nike Blazer Low.
For now, we only have these rumours for you and no concrete news. We'd love to see this strong collab go another round and give the Jordan 4 a makeover.
Alongside the 'Dark Grey', a black colorway is also rumoured to be in the works.
