adidas' Anthony Edwards Basketball Shoe Just Got a Makeover
adidas' seize of the basketball footwear market has been nothing short of impressive. Especially their highly successful AE 1 collaboration with legend in the making, Anthony Edwards, has gained a reputation for being one of the best basketball styles on the market right now – both in terms of functionality, and for its captivating design.
The latter's really no surprise, seeing as Edwards has such good taste, anyway. But not always do cool optics equal improved performance, so it's good to know NBA players and fans alike have embraced the silhouette so enthusiastically.
Surely, the hilarious marketing of them has had a hand in that, too:
Earlier this year, its popularity led to a revision of the adidas AE 1 to include a shorter version.
This time around however, the sportswear giant not only tweaked the model to introduce another low and novel mid variant, but also debuted fresh coats of paint.
Taking a step back from the more contrastive hot pinks, chrome reds, and pearly whites of previous AE 1s, the new AE 1 Ascent opts for a more naturalistic color composition of black textile with dark and smoky or camo-like soles.
Shooting hoops rarely ever looked this good.
