Matt Varga It’s just the reality of the Western Conference playoffs that nearly every matchup will be a scrap between multiple Hall of Famers. However, Anthony Edwards has gained a reputation for felling titans of the game in his past two playoff go-arounds: he thrashed Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, closed out Nikola Jokic on his home floor, and reversed the course of internet discourse by ousting LeBron James, Luka Doncic, and the Lakers in just five games.
As they have the whole way throughout the AE1’s lifespan, adidas has capitalized on this latest marketing opportunity, crowning Edwards the “King Slayer” in an immediate social blast after the final buzzer. While the nature of sneaker production means there’ll be a wait until we see a shoe directly inspired by it, an upcoming re-release of the “Year of the Snake” allows you to indirectly get in on this story anew. First dropped, fittingly, around the Lunar New Year in January, the shoe has re-emerged on retail release calendars for a May 30th launch. The colorway’s most lasting features, from the pearlescent outer cage to the scaly inner bootie, remain in place, identical to that Spring drop-off.
Refresh yourself on the adidas Anthony Edwards 1 Low “Year of the Snake” with the detailed image gallery included below. A $120 retail price remains in place — we’ll have our “Where To Buy” section stocked with direct pick-up links once this shoe earnestly drops again.
In related news, the adidas Anthony Edwards 2 is slated to drop later this Fall.
