by Angel Ortiz | Sep 24, 2023 | Featured, Sneaker Releases, Sneakers

Adidas and Minnesota Timberwolves Superstar Anthony Edwards have officially revealed the Anthony Edwards 1.

On Saturday Adidas revealed a peach colored Lamborghini with both the Adidas three-stripe logo and the new Anthony Edwards logo on the hood. The car was seen driving in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Anthony Edwards 1 features a knit base layer and two tone tongue construction, the AE1 introduces a melded TPU overlay that seems to be 4D printed but it actually is not. It helps contain Edward’s multi-directional movement in his playing style and also provides breathability. The AE1 also features Adidas Boost cushioning on the midsole/underlays and a multidirectional herringbone pattern with blades throughout.

“Edwards’ triangle-shaped logo checks all the boxes. It is easy to infer his initials “A” and “E” at first glance. Plus, his nickname “Ant” inspired the ant hill design.”

No official release date has been announced just yet but it’s rumored for holiday 2023 which is coming up very soon.
