adidas has had a strong year with their first signature shoe for Anthony Edwards, the AE 1. The model has been widely proclaimed as one of the best basketball signatures in years, and their strong line of colors has helped immensely. Now, we have our first look at a sample of the next iteration, the AE 2.
Anthony Edwards has been one of the most dominant up and coming NBA players in his first few years in the league. The young guard is entering his fifth season in the league, and has already racked up multiple playoff appearances as well as All-Star and All-NBA commendations, and participated in the Olympics for Team USA this Summer. On top of that, he has one of the best signature sneakers in the world at the moment, and is looking for another with his upcoming adidas AE 2.
The success of the AE 1 has been a huge bonus for adidas’ basketball offerings over the last year. The signature model has been one of the most well-regarded performance shoes of the past year, and its unique design has brought us a wide range of fun and exciting colorways. Now, after rumors of the AE 2 making its debut later this year, we finally have an early look at what we can expect to see come this Fall. The new version removes the shoe’s all-encompassing outer shell in favor of stripped-down support overlays, while retaining the inner bootie. The general shape is the same, with more options for color blocking.
adidas has yet to officially announce or unveil the next Anthony Edwards signature, the AE 2. However, we will likely see more and more photos of the model as we head into the NBA season in October. The shoe will likely be limited in its first releases before widening in scope, and is expected to maintain a similar price tag around $120 as the initial silhouette.
