Jordan Melo M13 review

Who should buy the Jordan Melo M13

Carmelo Anthony is one of the most tenured among all Air Jordan athletes. The thirteenth release in his line comes with technologies that deliver comfort, explosive responsiveness, and secure lockdown. This pair is a solid option for you if:

• You're looking for a Jordan pair that would support your explosive gameplay.
• You love a monochromatic style and design in a basketball shoe.

Midsole technologies of Melo M13

The FlightSpeed cushioning system of the Jordan Melo M13 is perhaps the shoe’s crowning technology. It is composed of two of the brand’s most effective breakthroughs: the Zoom Air and the Flight Plate.

The Zoom Air uses tightly stretched tensile fabrics. It cushions impact and delivers high-energy returns. Basically, the fabrics compress upon impact; then, they immediately go back to their original form, producing explosive energy in the process.

The Flight Plate basically enhances the performance of the already effective Zoom Air. What this moderator plate does is evenly distribute the energy produced by the Zoom Air unit. This results in a more balanced out experience of impact absorption and energy explosion.

Jordan Melo m13's enhanced outsole construction

The outsole of the Jordan Melo M13 is made of rubber that features horizontal grooves. The shoe’s grip is enhanced by adding several raised points all over the outsole.

Strappy secure lockdown

The upper of the Melo M13 is made of mesh that has the Flight Web system integrated into it. This technology provides a more secure lockdown for the player through the use of webbed straps in the midfoot area.

These straps are integrated with the laces, and it gives the shoe the flexibility needed to sway with the wearer’s movement.

Grand durable upper of Melo M13

The upper of the Jordan Melo M13 is made of breathable mesh. It has stylish kurim overlays on the lateral side. The shoe’s breathability is enhanced further by its tongue that is made of open-cell mesh.

The toe cap has fuse overlays that give it more durability. The same is true for the seams.

Melo's signature style

The Melo M13 is a monochromatic offering from the Jordan brand. The lateral side of its mesh upper has kurim overlays that make the shoe extra appealing. A prominent Jumpman logo is also on the lateral side of the shoe. The upper part of the left tongue has the Jumpman logo, the left has the Melo logo.
