KAWS x Air Jordan 4 SP “Dark Grey” Releases Summer 2027

KAWS and Jordan Brand are reportedly reuniting in 2027 for a new KAWS x Air Jordan 4 “Dark Grey,” marking the artist’s long-awaited return to the iconic silhouette nearly a decade after their original collaboration.

Expected to release during Summer 2027, the upcoming pair is currently listed in a Dark Grey/Dark Grey colorway with style code JU4624-002. Retail pricing is reportedly set at $500, making it one of the most expensive Air Jordan 4 releases to date. No official images of the 2027 KAWS x Air Jordan 4 have surfaced yet, and the exact materials and design details remain unknown. However, given the legacy of the original collaboration, expectations will be high for KAWS and Jordan Brand’s next take on the Air Jordan 4.

KAWS x Air Jordan 4 Returns Nearly 10 Years Later

KAWS, the artist and designer born Brian Donnelly, first teamed up with Jordan Brand in 2017 for one of the most memorable Air Jordan collaborations of the decade.

The original KAWS x Air Jordan 4 “Cool Grey” transformed Tinker Hatfield’s classic silhouette with a premium tonal suede construction. KAWS’ signature hand graphics were worked throughout the upper, while his recognizable “XX” branding appeared on the heels. A translucent glow-in-the-dark outsole completed the design with additional KAWS artwork underneath.

The Cool Grey pair released globally on March 31, 2017, with a retail price of $350 and quickly became one of the year’s most sought-after sneakers. Jordan Brand and KAWS followed the release with an all-black edition later that year. Both pairs have remained highly coveted among collectors, making a new KAWS Jordan collaboration one of the more notable additions to Jordan Brand’s growing 2027 lineup.

The timing also brings the partnership back almost exactly 10 years after the original KAWS x Air Jordan 4 debuted in 2017.

What Will the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 “Dark Grey” Look Like?

For now, the official Dark Grey/Dark Grey color description is the only indication of what the 2027 release may look like. Materials have not been confirmed, so it remains unclear whether KAWS and Jordan Brand will bring back the premium suede construction used on the 2017 releases or introduce an entirely new design.

Likewise, details such as KAWS’ signature hand graphics, “XX” branding, and glow-in-the-dark outsole have not yet been confirmed for the upcoming pair. Early reports identify this as a new KAWS x Air Jordan 4 rather than a straightforward retro of either 2017 colorway.

KAWS x Air Jordan 4 “Dark Grey” Release Date

The KAWS x Air Jordan 4 “Dark Grey” is currently expected to release during Summer 2027. An exact release date has not been announced.

The pair will arrive under style code JU4624-002 with a reported retail price of $500. Release locations and availability have not been confirmed, though a highly limited launch would be consistent with the duo’s previous releases. Expect more information, including a first look and official release details, to emerge as Summer 2027 approaches.
