Are the Jordan Melo M13’s available now overseas? Wouldn’t be surprised if they were, but it is surprising if they are prior to the shoe getting a proper unveil.
With the latest look at the Jordan Melo M13 you can see the upper a lot better than the initial set of images. Regular readers of WearTesters have been speculating that the upper is Kurim, and it would make sense if it was. Creating a shoe with a soft mesh build and reiforcing it with the lightweight TPU overlays would be great. It was an aspect that we loved on the Jordan Ultra.Fly, granted it was the only aspect we loved, but we loved it nonetheless.
You can also see the traction much better this time around. It looks very familiar *cough* Kobe 11 *cough* and we’re hoping that use of solid rubber keeps you gripping the hardwood.
Enjoy another look at the upcoming Jordan Melo M13 below and stay tuned for release information.

Second to last photo looks like JC3 but with the shroud glued on
Look very stealthy and probably the best from recent jordan brand lineup
I will.be looking at other brands tho: JB will need to try harder to put their hands on.my cash
I have a feeling traction will not be it’s strong suit…also, yes, the interior shot looks a lot like the JC3, but i’m not looking to get this shoe, as i already have the 29 lows
Midsole reminds me of the Jordan XX3.
the release dates are really confusing with certain Nike/JB shoes, same with Adidas. I remember some instances where certain shoes that I recall that I had already seen and then just being announced here and in the U.S. but were already available at a much earlier date like months or even longer. having said that, I now believe that I actually seen these in person but never really cared on trying them on (feet) since they look Turrible. they do feel and look like Kurim (harder) in person, like a different implementation of it. what I would say is that they remind me of the legion of doom’s body armor’s spikes on them coz they were really protruding or thickly embossed. anyway, I would have bought these as mere bragging rights for having them first, but they’re just ugly. but who knows, a different CW could change all that. btw, the shoes that I have seen is pretty much similar in all aspect including the CW.
oh and they look to have the same cushion shit and torsion construct as that of a SuperFly.
Perhaps its the all black, but I am liking
Looks like a Nike Yeezy concept someone made a while back. Best looking Team Jordan sig I’ve seen in awhile.
Wish the design was more round. The I wasn’t a fan of the JC3 design. The 2s were fire though
again no heel cushion? not buying these
I feel you. For the price they charge, they could at least use some lunar in the heel
Looks dope
If the traction in these performs like the Kobe 11 solid rubber version, I will definitely buy them at some point. Assuming that forefoot zoom is similar to what it was in the M12, which I thought felt great.
The zoom units in the 12 were good but only lasted for few months.
Really? Mine are still good, but I’ve probably only played in them 15-20 times.
it could look better, leave the midsole smooth without pattern
Looking like AJ XV, Kobe 3, and Melo 12 all had a baby somehow..
I see a lot of brandblack in this shoe. Similar upper designs, blade-esque outsole. Looking at the fact that those blades on the outsole are unidirectional and very, very close together. This most likely add up to the sole quickly attracting dust and even on super clean courts I think lateral traction will be poor.
Midsole looks straight off the New Balance fresh foam series.
The outsole/cushioning part is taken straight from the Jordan Rising Highs…
Jordan brand is not helping itself against competent competitors such as Adidas and Brandblack…
The implementation of Kurim and the diamond-like theme patern all over the shoe are very interesting ideas but the shoe still looks like a Brandblack model.
I hoping that midsole is Lunarlon since the midsole looks exactly like the Nike Lunar Caldra but with an added zoom bag
