Adidas Harden Vol. 8 "Blue Fusion" 

In refreshingly transparent initial info, adidas laid plain the release schedule for the Harden Vol. 8. Save for any special editions, the first 6 colorways would launch every two weeks beginning with the “Sculpt” at the end of February. As that calendar marches on, the “Blue Fusion” is getting close to its debut, and we’re getting some official details to match.

The two-tone color-blocking on display with this “Blue Fusion” pair has become a calling card for the Beard’s latest signature. The side EVA cage is set apart in a beige off-white, while the rest of the shoe is comprehensively drenched in royal blue, encapsulating the inner bootie, the laces and the pronounced toe-cap. Though they may not be exact hex code matches, the combo of white and blue can only be taken as an allusion to the Clippers, up well with their navy away jerseys.

Each new edition of the adidas Harden Vol. 8 has eventually sold out, and “Blue Fusion” likely won’t be an exception. It’ll hit adidas.com and the CONFIRMED app on May 1st, retailing for $160. Enjoy an on-court look of Harden wearing the shoes just below.

If you’re in the market for basketball shoes available now, certain sizes of the adidas Harden Vol. 8 “White Party” are still around via the adidas website.
