Some trainers barely survive a season of hype. Others keep sneakerheads checking resale prices for a decade.

Introduction:
The KAWS x Air Jordan 4 belongs firmly in the second camp, and a new ‘Dark Grey’ colourway could finally give collectors another shot at the collaboration.
Brian Donnelly, better known as KAWS, is reportedly reconnecting with Jordan Brand for a Summer 2027 release. Arriving during the partnership’s tenth anniversary year, this would become its third Air Jordan 4 colourway, following 2017’s ‘Cool Grey’ and ‘Black’ editions.
What Could the KAWS Jordan 4 ‘Dark Grey’ Look Like?
Think grey skies with considerably better wardrobe potential. The reported ‘Dark Grey/Dark Grey’ colour scheme suggests a tonal look, although official imagery has yet to reveal the finished design.

The originals traded the Jordan 4’s familiar finish for textured suede, decorated with KAWS’ recognisable Companion hand artwork. ‘XX’ heel branding and glow-in-the-dark outsoles helped turn an already recognisable silhouette into something collectors wanted to display as much as wear.
Those signatures are expected to return, but remain unconfirmed for 2027. Until photographs surface, treat detailed mock-ups as possibilities rather than product previews.
KAWS x Air Jordan 4 ‘Dark Grey’ Release Date and Price
The KAWS x Air Jordan 4 ‘Dark Grey’ is currently expected on 15 May 2027, with men’s sizing and a reported $500 retail price. UK listings indicate £400, while the style code is JU4624-002.
Expected release channels include KAWS, Nike SNKRS and select Jordan Brand retailers, although final availability still needs confirmation.

That price certainly demands a pause before checkout. Still, for fans who missed the original releases, a fresh colorway offers something more appealing than another evening scrolling resale listings.
For now, keep the date pencilled in and watch for official images. Ten years later, KAWS could make grey feel exciting again.
