Anthony Edwards and adidas are prepping for the debut of the Timberwolves’ guard’s second signature shoe, the AE2. The silhouette has popped up in a number of new colors in recent weeks, now including a “Lime Burst” pair for Spring 2026.
Fans of Anthony Edwards and his siganture sneaker with adidas, the AE1, have been anxiously awaiting the debut of his second model, the AE2, for quite a while now. The original model was widely regarded as one of the best and most stylish basketball shoes in recent history when it launched in 2023, and has been a staple for adidas Performance since then. The process of getting the AE2 to market has been a long one, with adidas have to return to the drawing board multiple times, eventually repurposing the silhouette designated to be the AE3 as the sophomore silhouette.
However, the AE2 is almost here. The model will debut next month in a colorway inspired by the state fruit of Georgia, Edwards’ home state. While we get ready for that release, we have an early look at another pair slated for arrival in Spring 2026. The look incorporates a vivid “Lime Burst” green shade to the model’s overlay elements, contrasted with jet black for a striking new look. The mesh underlay along the tongue also appears to be a ghostly green shade peaking out from underneath, while the AE logo on both tongues completes the look.
