Following the breakout success of Anthony Edwards’ debut sneaker, the adidas AE 1, expectations for its successor could not be higher. The original model transcended performance footwear to become a streetwear favourite, even prompting adidas to extend its lifespan and delay the launch of the sequel. Nearly two years on, the adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Core Black” marks a striking return for one of the league’s brightest stars, a silhouette that builds on its predecessor’s energy while pushing the conversation forward.
The design is intentionally restrained. A fully blacked-out upper creates a sculptural silhouette, enhanced by fine white piping along the TPU louvres and heel counter for just the right amount of contrast. A Primeknit collar, neoprene tongue, and lightweight textile midfoot panel contribute to a minimal, form-fitting structure that feels engineered rather than decorative.
Touches of bright red branding, Edwards’ logo on the tongue and adidas’ Three Stripes on the heel, punctuate the darkness with a bold sporting accent. Underfoot, Lightstrike and Lightboost cushioning technologies combine for explosive responsiveness, aided by a propulsion plate and a durable herringbone traction outsole.
