Per  Sneaker Files  and  @zSneakerheadz  on Instagram, the  "Melo" Air Jordan 12  from 2004 is coming back in Summer 2025. There are no leaked images of the purported retro at the time of writing, and it likely won't surface until we get closer to the rumored launch date. The "Melo" Air Jordan 12 pictured above is the original 2004 version, and it features a white-based upper combined with "University Blue" accents for the sock liner, the heel tab, and on the outsole.
