A Joker-Like Makeover Appears on the adidas Harden Vol. 10

James Harden and his Los Angeles Clippers squad may be struggling on the NBA hardwood, but the shooting guard continues to win off of it thanks to his adidas Harden Vol. 10 basketball shoe.

Unveiled ahead of a November matchup with home city rivals, the latest adidas Basketball sneaker has quickly become one of the public's more lauded designs. The pair features clear through-lines to other Harden signature models, but its molded upper creates an unconventional look that deviates from the mesh and knit-heavy performance offerings that currently dominate the market.

Numerous eye-catching ensembles form part of the Harden Vol. 10's inaugural roster of launches—including styles clad in "Lucid Aquamarine" and "Hi-Res Yellow." The sneaker's "Tech Purple" presentation favors a subdued finish, but the "Lucid Lemon" 3-Stripes branding at the heel and traction zones inject bold flair into the mix. Together, the neon hue and rich purple elements come together to evoke images of the Joker from the world of Batman.

The pair is set to release via adidas.com on March 21 for $160.
