As we recently delved into, Anthony Edwards’ status as the face of adidas Basketball is no longer a ceremonial title. With two signature lines under his belt between his tentpole series and the budget Believe That 1, the performance of Three Stripes Hoops is now intrinsically tied to the life and times of Ant-Man.

Anticipation is steadily rising for the adidas Anthony Edwards 3, expected to drop aligned with the next NBA season. Yet the AE2 still has plenty more to say for itself as the Georgia product aims higher once again for the 2026-27 campaign. Perhaps the adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Black/Gold Metallic” at hand is a moment to look back, pulling out muted gold anchoring and toes for the perennial All-Star and frequent statistical leader. A black base provides a grounded foundation for this colorway overall, while some trademark light red sneaks onto his logo on the tongue and the Three Stripes hit on the heel.

The adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Gold Metallic” should be dropping sometime in June. An official adidas date hasn’t been confirmed, but overseas retailers have this pair queued up for June 6th, aligning with the similarly clad Harden Vol. 10.
