adidas and Anthony Edwards are stepping on the gas for the Playoffs, revealing the all-new AE1 Low in yet another audacious ad campaign that proves they’re not ducking any smoke and creating it at the same time. Officially debuting during Game 1 of the MIN/PHX Playoffs series in Round 1, the adidas AE1 Low was front-and-center largely due to Anthony Edwards’ heroics.

THE FIRST LOOK

The AE1 Low first appeared via an Instagram video posted by Anthony himself and adidas Basketball. A continuation of their bold ad campaign that launched in October 2023, this latest spot features Anthony and pal inside a Saab 900 Cabrio — possibly an homage to the film Paid In Full. Anthony drops the top on the vehicle and sticks his leg out on the side-view mirror to unveil the AE1 Low in a bright orange/pink colorway, continuing a trend of vibrant, peach-toned colors.

THE “MURAL” COLORWAY

The version of the AE1 Low is officially called the “Mural” colorway. The AE1 Low looks very similar to the AE1, but modified to have a lower cut. The exterior foam web-like cage remains untouched, leaving the “Low” responsibility to the mere reduction of the ankle. A detailed gallery of images via content creator @tanztz has been revealed.
