All eyes are on Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games, and specifically for sneakerheads; the USA men’s national basketball squad. The storylines have been abundant thus far, with one of the more interesting being Anthony Edward’s debut on the Olympic stage. The Minnesota Timberwolves star dominates the sports and sneaker newswires all the same, and that’s continued during the offseason as Edwards claims not one, but three “USA” colorways of the adidas AE1 Low.
We saw Ant-Man lace up a white pair at practice, we covered news of a Night Indigo colorway a couple days ago, and now completing a patriotic trio, a red and blue “USA” player edition has surfaced.
Images posted by @yuanchengxin1 reveal the shoe, featuring a balanced mix of flag colors. The outer portion of the cage appears in red, while the honeycomb TPU that rest inside comes in dark navy. The toe, tongue, and lining also wear the blue shade, while the mesh portion up top hosts another instance of red. Just like the other two “Olympic” Anthony Edwards shoes, we see a white adidas heel logo, tongue branding, and “USA” text on the inner tongue tag.
The shoes aren’t expected to release at the time of this writing, but sneakerheads should be able to admire them on-court as group stage competition tips off on July 27th. However, the Night Indigo colorway is set to release on August 15th.
