This specific colorway, featuring a vibrant blue that pays homage to Minnesota basketball heritage, is currently selling out in minutes across European retail sites.

Submit Order

You can save 45 EUR on the Adidas AE 2 'Velocity Blue' by purchasing directly from US vendors rather than paying the steep markup found in secondary marketplaces in Paris or Lyon. To do this, you need a reliable freight forwarder that provides you with a US-based shipping address to bypass regional shipping restrictions.

Why US retailers have better stock for France buyers

US retailers like Foot Locker, Eastbay, and the official Adidas US store receive significantly higher inventory allocations for the AE 2 than European counterparts. For a shopper in France, the challenge is that these stores often do not ship directly to international addresses. By using a tax-free US address, you can shop these sites as if you were living in the United States, allowing you to secure the 'Velocity Blue' at the MSRP of $150 instead of the 200+ EUR prices seen locally.

Solving US payment blocks with BuyForMe

Many major US retailers, including Adidas and Nike, frequently block international credit cards or cancel orders that use billing addresses outside the United States. This is a common hurdle for sneaker collectors in France trying to get their hands on exclusive drops. If your order is repeatedly declined, the BuyForMe service is the solution.

Through BuyForMe, the team at comGateway purchases the Adidas AE 2 'Velocity Blue' on your behalf using a US domestic payment method. This eliminates the risk of order cancellation due to your French credit card. It is the safest way to guarantee your pair is secured before the 'Velocity Blue' stock disappears. Once the purchase is made, the item is sent to your personal suite and prepared for the international shipping service to France.

Shipping Estimates to France

Calculating your total cost is essential before committing to an international purchase. You can use the shipping calculator to get a precise quote, but here are the general estimates for a standard pair of Adidas AE 2 'Velocity Blue' shoes.

To keep your international shipping rates as low as possible, consider the 'repacking' service which removes unnecessary air and extra packaging from the retailer's box.

Customs and TVA for French residents

When importing goods into France from outside the EU, you must account for TVA (Value Added Tax) and potential customs duties. For sneakers valued at approximately 140 EUR (equivalent to $150), you should expect to pay 20% TVA. However, even with these costs and the shipping fees, the total price often remains lower than the local French reseller market, where the AE 2 'Velocity Blue' is currently commanding a premium.

Ordering from the US to France

Getting your sneakers delivered to France is a straightforward process when you understand how it works. First, register for your US address. Second, shop at your preferred US retailer. If the store rejects your French card, use the BuyForMe service. Finally, once the shoes arrive at the warehouse, select your preferred courier to have them delivered to your doorstep in France. This method ensures you get authentic Adidas AE 2 'Velocity Blue' sneakers without the frustration of local stockouts.
