The 2025 edition of the Air Jordan 12 Retro 'Melo' brings back Carmelo Anthony's PE colorway, featuring a two-tone color scheme celebrating the NBA athlete's rookie season with the Denver Nuggets. True to the 2004 original, the retro model employs a white leather upper with radiating stitched lines and a tonal lizard-textured mudguard. University Blue accents make their way to the collar lining, pull tab and rubber outsole, equipped with an exposed carbon fiber shank plate and herringbone traction pods.
