Carmelo Anthony is finally getting his flowers. Sure, his NBA résumé might not stack up to his 2003 draft buddies LeBron and D-Wade, but let’s be real: nobody rocked the hardwood with more swagger than Melo.
Case in point? The Air Jordan 12 “Melo,” dropping soon and already making sneakerheads sweat. And now, thanks to size?, we now have more detailed retailer images of these much anticipated sneakers.
As the first signature athlete for Jordan Brand, Carmelo Anthony left an indelible mark on the sneaker world. Together, they launched a string of signature models, with highlights like the Jordan Melo 5.5 standing out in his early years. His Player Exclusive (PE) sneakers were equally iconic, showcasing unique designs that set the stage for new possibilities in Jordan Brand’s colourway arsenal.
The White/University Blue/Metallic Silver colourway, while reminiscent of Michael Jordan’s UNC days, earned the “Melo” nickname for its close resemblance to the powder blue Denver Nuggets jerseys.
Anthony’s PE version featured his nickname embroidered on the heel and golden metallic eyelets, but the retail version remains a faithful nod to his influence.
The Air Jordan 12 “Melo” will officially launch on 17th May, priced at £190. Feast your eyes on the official pics below and hit that 'Notify me' button to get personalised notifications for this release.
