The current face of adidas’ basketball roster, Anthony Edwards, has been spotted in several standout colorways of his signature model, the AE 1, most notably during the recent Olympics. Tadidas has gifted Edwards a special pair of Gold Medal-inspired adidas AE 1 Lows, celebrating his success and the team’s victory. Alongside this gold medal sneaker, LeBron James was spotted with a golden LeBron 22.
The adidas AE 1 Low Gold Medal PE is a fitting tribute to Edwards’ contributions to Team USA’s success. This exclusive AE 1 Low (or Anthony Edwards 1 Low) edition features an opulent gold colorway that dominates the sneaker’s design. The gold hue is prominently displayed on the model’s generative support wing along the midfoot, a vital feature of the AE 1 Low with its distinctive honeycomb lattice pattern. This bold gold is contrasted by sleek black accents, which cover the Primeblue layer around the collar and heel and the neoprene tongue, adding depth and balance to the overall aesthetic.
The heel sports a golden faux carbon fiber plate decorated with the iconic Three Stripes, tying the design to adidas’ heritage. The gold theme continues underfoot, with a golden midsole offering style and support. The sneaker is finished with a clear rubber outsole that hosts Light Boost cushioning, ensuring that the shoe looks great and delivers top-notch performance on the court.
While this Gold Medal-inspired adidas AE 1 Low is a 1-of-1 created specifically for Anthony Edwards, plenty of colorways are on the way for the model, including the Slime and Year of the Snake.
