Anthony Edwards’ sophomore signature, the adidas AE 2 in Black/Multi-Color, drops March 7, 2026 via adidas.com and select adidas retailers for $130, multiple outlets including National Today, Sneaker Bar Detroit, and KicksOnFire report. The style code KK0645 appeared earlier in a Jan. 29 YouTube breakdown, which initially listed only Spring 2026 and TBA pricing before retailers published the March 7 date and $130 tag.

Visually the shoe is a study in controlled chaos: a black engineered mesh upper anchors neon highlighter hits in pink, blue, green, and orange across mismatched overlays and laces, National Today and Sneaker Bar Detroit note. Sneaker Bar Detroit calls out a neon green outsole that wraps up into the toe and a grey reflective toebox that tempers the color. The overlays run from toe across the midfoot and rise into the heel, creating asymmetry between left and right that the site says “adds motion even when the sneaker is standing still.”

Under the shell the AE 2 keeps performance front and center. KicksOnFire describes engineered mesh with synthetic support panels, an advanced cushioning midsole tuned for responsive energy return and impact protection, and a sole engineered for multidirectional traction, positioning the shoe for quick cuts and explosive drives. The YouTube lookbook emphasized a low-profile, speed-oriented silhouette built for on-court presence, using color placement to emphasize sculpted lines rather than overpower the form.

Anthony Edwards debuted the Multicolor AE 2 on court against the Denver Nuggets, National Today and Yahoo report, marking the loudest in-game colorway to surface from his line so far. Yahoo also documents that the AE 2 line first arrived in May 2025 after the AE 1, that Edwards has been promoting the model throughout the season, and that Adidas has been covering his fines this upcoming season, a claim Yahoo links to broader reporting on his uniform choices and league rules.

Sneaker Bar Detroit updated its timeline on Feb. 25 to say an early NBA All-Star Weekend limited release preceded wider availability on March 7, and several outlets warn stock could be limited at launch. Priced at $130, the AE 2 sits at a consumer-friendly point for a signature basketball shoe while offering performance specs that KicksOnFire and YouTube connect directly to Edwards’ quick, attack-first game.

This neon-splashed AE 2 balances play-ready engineering with asymmetrical street-ready styling, crystallizing the visual identity adidas has been building around Edwards as the shoe becomes available on March 7, 2026.
