Damian Lillard's partnership with adidas has been a highlight of the brand's basketball division, which has yielded several successful sneaker releases. As a nod to his significant impact, adidas even dedicated a building at their Portland headquarters in his honor. While the anticipated Dame 9 did not launch in late 2023, instead a redesign of the Dame 8 dubbed the Dame 8 EXTPLY, adidas took the opportunity during the All-Star Weekend to preview what's next for Lillard's signature line, introducing the adidas Dame 9.

The adidas Dame 9 introduces a fresh design approach while maintaining the performance-driven ethos of its predecessors. The low-cut silhouette combines innovative materials and design cues. Synthetic overlays are adorned with Three Stripe cut-outs at the midfoot, offering a glimpse into the sneaker's structural base.

These overlays transition into a bootie construction at the top, blending black neoprene and mesh for a snug, comfortable fit. Damian Lillard's distinct logo crowns the tongue, complemented by a mini adidas logo near the toe. The heel sports Lillard's "0" emblem alongside nine dots, symbolizing this ninth (technically tenth) installment in his sneaker series. Completing the design is a cohesive midsole and outsole embedded with adidas' Lightstrike Pro technology for unparalleled comfort and responsiveness on the court.

The adidas Dame 9 will release in 2024 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. While the retail price is yet to be announced, this model is expected to continue the line's legacy of offering top-tier performance coupled with striking aesthetics.
