Harden Vol. 4 marks a groundbreaking addition to James Harden’s signature collection, introducing LIGHTSTRIKE as its innovative super-light midsole. This cutting-edge technology strikes the perfect balance between lightweight cushioning and on-court responsiveness, specifically tailored to complement Harden’s elite quickness and the dynamic demands of basketball.

The inclusion of LIGHTSTRIKE ensures comprehensive movement support and enhanced step-in comfort without sacrificing agility, addressing the specific needs of Harden’s playing style. The midfoot band, a distinctive feature of this collection, adds extra stability, while an updated traction pattern guarantees superior grip, enabling Harden to execute his signature elusive movements that have elevated him to superstar status.

Beyond performance, Harden Vol. 4 doesn’t compromise on style. Boasting a vibrant color palette and a mix of premium materials across the upper, the design aligns seamlessly with Harden’s love for both on-court excellence and off-court fashion.

Harden himself expressed his involvement in the collaborative design process with the adidas team, emphasizing the fusion of creativity and ideas to craft a shoe that reflects his gameplay and personal style. The partnership extended to renowned designer Daniel Patrick, known for setting trends with bold looks and bright colors. According to Harden, this collaboration was instrumental in bringing together sport, fashion, and culture.

To kick off the launch, a limited-edition Harden Vol. 4 colorway, created in collaboration with Daniel Patrick, will be exclusively available to Harden’s friends and family from November 1. This serves as a precursor to a broader spring/summer collection, including footwear and apparel, set to be released to the public in early 2020. Daniel Patrick, reflecting on the collaboration, expressed enthusiasm for pushing creative boundaries in both fashion and sport, ensuring that the swagger and style synonymous with James Harden are vividly brought to life in the Harden Vol. 4 and the larger adidas Basketball collection to follow.
