Much has changed in the NBA since the era of James Harden putting up monster numbers for the Houston Rockets. Yet, it will always be special when the former MVP returns to the Toyota Center.
Fans may have noticed Harden wearing his newest signature adidas sneakers in what looked like Rockets colors. But do not let the red and gold fool you; those were part of an official collaboration with a little fast-food chain called McDonald's.
Harden finished the game with 21 points and seven assists to lead the Los Angeles Clippers to victory and did so in style. Below is a detailed look at the adidas Harden Vol. 8 "McDonald's" and the details behind the collaboration.
adidas Harden Vol. 8 "McDonald's"
On Wednesday night, Harden debuted the "McDonald's" colorway of his eighth signature sneaker with adidas. The shoes were designed for the upcoming 47th annual McDonald's All-American Game.
Adidas has been the official footwear, uniform, and apparel provider for the annual event since 2012. Harden's signature sneaker line (as well as other adidas athletes) have enjoyed multiple McDonald's-themed colorways over the years - but this might be the best iteration yet.
The adidas Harden Vol. 8 officially launched on February 23 for $160. Naturally, the highly-anticipated kicks sold out quickly on the adidas website. However, there are still some sizes of the "Pioneer" colorway available at Dick's Sporting Goods.
According to adidas, the performance basketball shoe is made for those who are never afraid to stand out. The adidas Harden Vol. 8 is the ultimate form of self-expression, swag, and confidence. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news from the sports world.
