Adidas Basketball and James Harden unveiled the Harden Vol 10 on December 10, 2025, marking a milestone in their decade-long partnership. The premiere colourway, “Imma Be a Star,” debuted at the Clippers‑Lakers showdown, celebrating Harden’s evolution from humble beginnings to global icon status.
The Harden Vol 10 launch was rich in storytelling, featuring appearances by youth from the Boys & Girls Club of Los Angeles—an organisation tied to Harden’s childhood—alongside special-edition campaign apparel and shoes that reinforced his personal and community legacy.
Performance features of the Vol 10 build on previous models and incorporate full‑length LIGHTBOOST cushioning for enhanced energy return, radial multidirectional traction for improved grip, a moulded upper for lockdown fit, and a conforming cuff for on-court freedom. The sculpted TPU shell and embossed concentric oval panels offer a sleek, futuristic design echoing Harden’s signature playing style and bold personality.
Harden’s statement reflects the shoe’s significance: “The 10 is way more special as it’s a reflection on everything we’ve built and represents the legacy I want to leave behind… I feel in some ways that I’m just getting started.” The Harden Vol 10, expected to retail at $150–$160 (€140–€150), will launch globally on December 15 via adidas.com and select retailers, targeting athletes and sneaker enthusiasts alike.
