The idea was to create something built by many and worn with pride—and something that carries the spirit of the Philippines in every detail,&quot; Rodas said of his design.The shoe features the colors of the Philippine flag -- with a gradient of blue hues across the upper, a vibrant red sockliner, and accents of lime yellow in the stitching across the tongue and the upper.The inner tongues feature split messaging: &quot;Magpakitang Gilas&quot; on the left, and &quot;Shine for the Squad&quot; on the right.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1782462954700AE 2 2.png" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960" alt="The Anthony Edwards 2 &quot;Magpakitang Gilas.&quot; Handout/adidas"/>The Anthony Edwards 2 &quot;Magpakitang Gilas.&quot; Handout/adidas</div>The lace tips, meanwhile, feature &quot;Pilipinas&quot; and &quot;Basketball&quot; callouts.The shoe was developed under adidas Philippines&#x27; partnership with the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, as the brand serves as the official outfitter of Gilas Pilipinas.&quot;Magpakitang Gilas&quot; is available starting June 26 at adidas.com.ph and select adidas stores.
