The adidas Harden Vol. 8 Blue Fusion is a basketball shoe designed in collaboration with American basketball star James Harden.

This version of the adidas Harden Vol. 8 is constructed with a Lucid Blue knit upper. The upper is enclosed in an off-white EVA cage from heel to forefoot on each side, providing a unique design and unrivaled support. The heel is reinforced with TPU and the toe box is also hardened. The heel also features a blue pull tab, and the off-white outsole runs up the back of the heel, bearing the iconic Adidas 3-Stripes logo in blue. The tongue also features a pull tab and a sock-like lining around the ankle. A blue and white outsole completes this design.

Our favorite element of this shoe is the minimal branding, which lets the unique design of the EVA cages stand out. The adidas Harden Vol. 8 Blue Fusion was released on May 1, 2024, for $160.
