In 2015, James Harden signed a 15-year, $200 million contract with adidas. While the foreseeable future on where Harden will be playing basketball for next season is still uncertain, one thing we do know is that wherever he lands he’ll be lacing up his eighth signature shoe, the Harden Vol. 8.

While adidas has yet to reveal all the materials and tech specs used on the Harden Vol. 8, the shoe does feature a similar neoprene bootie construction as the adidas Löparskor Kid Fortarun Daisy El. But for this model, the basketball shoe is locked in by a molded shell that will be seen in many different color options. Both the toe cap overlay and cushioning remain similar to the Vol. 7.

Check out the preview photos below, and look for the adidas Scarpe Dropset to release early 2024 at select adidas Hoops retailers and adidas.com. The retail price tag is set at $160 USD.
