Jordan Brand will finally re-release the Air Jordan 12 “Melo” in 2025.
The Air Jordan 12 “Melo” was designed exclusively for Carmelo Anthony during his time with the Denver Nuggets. The PE (Player Exclusive) embodied the Nuggets’ classic light blue, white, and gold uniforms on the Air Jordan 12.
Released by Jordan Brand in 2004, the AJ12 “Melo” first arrived to the public in women’s sizing in February and was then followed in men’s sizing in May. In 2016, the Jumpman released the Air Jordan 12 “University Blue” in kids’ sizing but differed slightly with a brighter shade of blue and metallic gold.
More than two decades after its debut, the Air Jordan 12 “Melo” is expected to return in its OG white upper, university blue hits on the pull tab, lining, and midsole.
The Air Jordan 12 “Melo” releases May 17, 2025 for $200 via SNKRS and select retailers.
