Melo Knicks.

Carmelo Anthony‘s new signature kicks might not see much hardwood time if the NBA doesn’t get its act together, but the Jordan Melo M8 will debut in two New York Knicks-styled launch colorways no matter what happens.

These “Home” and “Away” Knicks themed M8 kicks get tech upgraded from the previous Jordan Melo M7 with Flywire upper paneling (although making a brief appearance on the Melo M7 Advance) and a combination visible Zoom forefoot and visible Max Air heel. The tongue wraps up the New York motif with a stitched in label reading “Born in Brooklyn, Manufactured in Baltimore, Model #7.”

Your first shot at the Jordan Melo M8 in these Knicks colors comes on October 12, 2011. Price point is set at $130.
