    This switch has been bad for his career.

    How his numbers are pretty identical to last year plus now he has 200 mil. How has his career suffered? The team has played like crap but only the stupid ppl are blaming Harden

    Are those even basketball shoes???

    Those are garbage compared to what Nike puts on the shelves

    The only good adidas are shell toes and the yeezy kicks

    They dnt even compare to Nike

    I hope you were being sarcastic

    It's not that pair. Go look under Adidas basketball. They have the same texture midsole on the heel area. But it's a whopping $130 at the Foot Locker. They literally mimic the Nikes he's was wearing for years. So there's really no difference.

    Can shoes really make you turn the ball over as much as he does?

    The Ultra Boosts are their flagship running/casual shoe.
    Yeezy Boost 350s/750s fail to compare comfort/performance wise.
    Nike's Flyknit Racer equivalent is also far behind the curve on these hush puppies.

    As far as aesthetics are concerned, I find UBs >>> FKR/YBs.

    Ultra Boosts are ridiculously comfortable. They make Roshes and Flyknit Racers feel like hiking boots. I just ordered another pair last night.

    thats not entirely true. Nike/Jordan sells more in a weekend than Adidas does in a year. boost are selling out because of low production numbers. meanwhile nike/jb mass produce up to half a milion pairs of certain models.

    adidas is aiming for the exclusivity/limited market. it works for them. they produce low numbers and people go crazy paying resell because they have to have what they can't get. it works for them. for example, releasing only 100 pairs of those all white james harden edition

    Interesting silhouette. Not a big fan of Adidas's designs but for the CL Boost in general these have potential. Although, I think they'll miss out on any of that potential.

    Doubt he needs an All star colorway. :p

    ^^^ Agree about the logo. Lazy designer should have known to make the 3 longer so it looked more like a big booty.
