In a move that has sent sneaker enthusiasts and basketball fans into a frenzy, James Harden has officially unveiled his tenth signature shoe, the adidas Harden Vol. 10, during his annual tour of China. While the silhouette has been subject to leaked images for months, Harden’s personal reveal on Instagram provides the first clear look at the shoe in a black and metallic silver colorway.

The Harden Vol. 10 builds on the futuristic design language of its predecessors, the Vol. 7, 8, and 9. It features a similar mid-cut upper but with a newly designed molded shell on the sides that adds a striking, ripple-like texture in an elliptical pattern for the forefoot. This aggressive, contoured design is a subtle nod to the sneaker’s predecessor, but with an updated aesthetic. The shoe maintains a minimalist yet futuristic feel, with Harden’s signature logo stamped on the heel and adidas’ Three Stripes branding appearing on the heel of the outsole.

The choice to debut the shoe on his China tour is a powerful strategic move. Harden’s relationship with Chinese fans is legendary, with his annual trips drawing massive crowds and his brand transcending basketball. By launching the Vol. 10 here, adidas is directly acknowledging the importance of this market and rewarding his loyal international following. While a wider global release is rumored for November 2025, this exclusive first look in China solidifies Harden’s status as a rock star in the country and a global force in the sneaker world.
