Adidas Harden Vol. 9 "Snakeskin" Releases Oct. 17

James Harden's signature series with the Three Stripes has included dozens of Player-Exclusive (PE) editions. Some styles have been inspired by personal aspects of the NBA star's life, while others have simply experimented with colors and materials. The Adidas Harden Vol. 9 has appeared in a "Solar Lime," snakeskin-wrapped makeover in time for fall.

Product details for the unreleased pair of Harden's ninth Adidas Basketball design reveal that a "Solar Lime/Core Black" finish has been added to the sneaker's growing catalog of styles. An initial speculative mock-up depicted the pair with everything from its inner bootie to the multi-directional outsole in the fluorescent green, a tone that's recently landed on the Reebok Engine A. Official e-commerce photos have confirmed the sneaker's boldness, which includes a scale-like pattern printed onto the glossy upper.

The Harden Vol. 9 "Snakeskin" releases via Adidas.com on Friday, Oct. 31, for $160.
