James Harden's influence on the basketball court is undeniable, as the NBA star has made headlines for his gameplay and off-court dealings. Though controversies swirl around his relationship with the Philadelphia 76ers and Daryl Morey, his commitment to elevating basketball footwear through his partnership with adidas remains undeterred. With a lineage of successful releases under the Harden moniker, the latest drop for the Harden Vol. 7 promises to continue the tradition of blending style with performance.
Dressed in the sophisticated Orbit Grey colorway, this Harden Vol. 7 showcases refined aesthetics combined with high-performance elements. The sneaker boasts an engineered mesh for the internal bootie, providing a snug fit and enhanced breathability. Complementing this is the leather on the toe, which ensures durability. The midfoot is wrapped in a quilted canvas overlay, presenting an intricate design choice that elevates the shoe's overall look. Palette-wise, orbit grey, and chalk white dominate the front, while the heel, collar, sockliner, and tongue present deeper grey tones. For those looking to make swift and sharp moves on the court, the shoe's Lightstrike and JET BOOST cushioned midsole combine for one of the best cushioning setups in the game. adidas adds a herringbone-pattern rubber outsole to ensure traction on the hardwood floor, completing the design.
The adidas Harden Vol. 7 Orbit Grey will release November 1, 2023, through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $160.
