The last few months have given us more and more early looks at the AE2, Anthony Edwards’ second signature model with adidas. This week, a “Blue Fusion” edition has surfaced with an expected release in Fall 2025.

Anthony Edwards’ first signature shoe with adidas, the AE1, debuted in late 2023, and has had a remarkably successful run over the last eighteen months. The silhouette garnered a lot of praise from both sneakerheads and avid basketball shoe collectors, heralded as a Sneaker of the Year in both style and performance categories. adidas has also run a fantastic ad campaign, dropping some short, entertaining skits in the wake of big on-court moments for Ant, starring Ice-T as a crime scene investigator.

Over the last year or so, fans of the AE1 began to question when adi and Ant would release a follow-up to one of the most successful performance shoes in recent history. Originally slated to arrive in December 2024, the AE2 was delated until late 2025, but has finally started to pop up in new colors we can expect to see on shelves soon. Today, we got our first look at a new “Blue Fusion” edition, which covers the shoe’s textile layer in a bright shade of blue. This is paired with a black fitted bootie, and a plastic cage system in white and black, with a hint of neon green at the toes.

ADIDAS AE2 “BLUE FUSION” RELEASE INFORMATION

The first official release of Anthony Edwards’ adidas AE2 sneaker has not been announced yet, but is now expected sometime in Fall 2025, with this “Blue Fusion” edition penciled for October 25th. This is the earliest date we’ve heard for the new model yet, and makes sense given the timing with the start of the NBA season. Additionally, pricing for this model is set at $130.
