When the Lakers and the Clippers face off at the arena formerly known as the Staples Center, the eyes of Los Angeles and the basketball world are focused on the Battle for LA. For James Harden, the marquee matchup was the perfect opportunity to officially introduce the world to his latest signature sneaker, the adidas Harden Vol. 10.
Harden’s latest silhouette takes the one-piece shell and inner-bootie construction of the Harden Vol. 9 and refines the design language with a textured series of ovals on the side panel rippling out from the mid-foot like a rock thrown into a pond. Aside from the outer shell changing, adidas kept the hardware pretty consistent with the Vol. 9. There’s still a combo of Lightboost and Lightstrike cushioning, circular traction patterns on the outsole, and the black internal bootie. In Tuesday night’s game against the Lakers, Harden rocked the debut ice gold metallic colorway dubbed “Imma Be a Star.”
We first saw previews of the Harden Vol. 10 during the step-back savant’s annual adidas tour of China, when he stopped by a Three Stripes factory to get a hands-on look at samples of the new model. After that, a purple colorway leaked online, and now, coinciding with the on-court debut of the shoe, adidas dropped a new commercial for the shoe, starring Harden and featuring quick looks at a few new colorways, including a patent leather blue, pale yellow, and a maroonish red of some sort.
With Harden now popping the top on his latest shoe, expect to see The Beard break out new colorways of the shoe on court. As for retail, the adidas Harden Vol. 10 Imma Be a Star will be released December 15, 2025 through adidas and select retailers in-store and online for $160.
