Anthony Edwards, a name synonymous with explosive athleticism and dynamic play in the NBA, is set to embark on a new journey with the launch of his first signature sneaker, the adidas AE 1. This significant milestone marks Edwards' growing influence in basketball and fashion.
After being selected first overall in the 2020 NBA Draft, Anthony Edwards made a significant move by signing with adidas. Before receiving his own signature sneaker, one of Edwards' favorites in his footwear rotation was the adidas BYW Select. This model is an updated iteration of the '90s FYW (Feet You Wear) design language, a revolutionary concept in adidas’ sneaker history. The FYW technology aimed to create shoes that mimicked the natural movement of the foot, leading to better stability and support. Notably, this design philosophy was also a cornerstone in developing adidas Kobe sneakers, further cementing its legacy in basketball footwear.
As we celebrate the launch of the adidas AE 1, let's take a look back at some of the BYW Select colorways and other inline adidas Basketball models you can buy right now on adidas.com. Outside of the pairs listed below, you can check out all adidas Basketball sneakers available right now here.
