Anthony Edwards’ shoes are back in a big way. With the release of the AE1 “Ascent” pack bringing one of the defining 2024 silhouettes back to shelves, it would appear the Three Stripes is intent on keeping up momentum around #1’s signature in the coming months. A “Silver Metallic” colorway just hit the newswire, set for a public release in the short term future.
The chief draw of this release is the reflective paint job on the side honeycomb cage, re-doubling the futuristic design language that has made the AE1 such a massive hit in its debut. By placing some bold blue notes on the heel Three Stripes logo and Ant’s emblem on the tongue, this shoe creates some synergy for both of Edwards’ current squads; it wouldn’t be a shock to see him rocking these with a Team USA jerseys in the coming weeks or with a Wolves kit this upcoming season.
For this pair’s primary purpose as basketball shoes, the metallic detailing creates an eye-catching atmosphere that’s so often a mover in that vertical. As far as lifestyle crossover potential, the overall palette’s proximity to a shoe like the All-Star “Chromeposite” from a few years back charts forward a logical path to becoming a casual wear statement piece.
The adidas AE1 “Silver Metallic” is currently slated for a Fall ’24 release, carrying the typical $120 price point. Catch official images below, and head to our Sneaker Release Dates landing page for a specific date when it emerges.
