It appears that Nike is cashing in on James Harden's PEs while they can. Saw a restock of the Run the One PEs and HyperChase PEs at Foot Locker the other day. Get them while you can! Spoiler
Wonder if Adidas knew about Rose's rape thing that's going on and that's why they offered Harden that much money. Sounds terrible but you never know
I have these, they're pretty nice, but surprisingly heavy. I had some mid top hyperdunks that seemed to be lighter.
lol, yeah it had nothing to do with Harden being the runner up MVP and one of the most popular players in the NBA. Top seller jersey too!! <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Top-selling NFL jerseys year-to-date at <a href="https://twitter.com/DICKS">@DICKS</a>: 1.

I have the Harden shoe (with the H, and the neon colors) and they're the worst pair of shoes I have ever owned. What is even the point of the shoe laces when you literally have to struggle to get them to go in since it doesn't have a lip for the laces

So, Harden has been hanging with Kanye West a lot lately. They both went to each other's birthday parties. Kanye currently has two shoes out with Adidas and one releasing this fall/winter. I read that Adidas not only wanted Harden to make him an on court brand, but an off court brand too. Implying that they would likely have two different shoe lines for Harden. One Adidas Performance and the other Adidas Originals. These are Kanye's shoes. Yeezy Boost 750 (High-top sneaker) Spoiler Yeezy Boost 350 (Low-top casual sneaker) Spoiler Yeezy Boost 950 (Winter/Combat boot) Spoiler Overall it's all innovative and creative. This is a route I envision Harden wants to take. He has one of the more creative minds in the league and it is shown in his choice of outfits. I'm not sure what the end product will be for Harden's new shoes, but I'm sure he'll think of something creative.
Those Kanye's are freaking awful. The only thing I like is that they are simple, but for the most part, they are truly terrible looking shoes. The Jordans (1-14) are iconic because of the simplicity of design. I hope Harden chooses a more old school simple design that Adidas had back in the day Patrick Ewing Sneaker comes to mind (I love this sneaker, always turns heads when I wear mine) I know Harden doesn't wear super high tops, but the simplicity of design is perfect.
These ultra boosts are similar to what I think James' first shoe could look like. Not talking about the colors or anything just the design.
Not sure if this was posted yet. But here is a great interview about the deal with Harden and Adidas. I have a good feeling about this endorsement. Just from reading the interview I think we will get some great collaboration between the two. http://www.nicekicks.com/2015/08/14...gm-chris-grancio-discusses-james-harden-deal/
