An evolution of the adidas Harden Vol. 1, a lifestyle edition dubbed the Harden LS, has taken center stage.

Each one of the adidas Harden LS models utilize multicolor Primeknit uppers, full-length Boost cushioning, and an uncaged toe box.

Colorways featured on the LS are inspired by Harden’s life stories. Each is slated to drop at adidas and Foot Locker before the 2017-2018 NBA season. Normally we’re given release dates and prices with the press releases, but this time around James wants to share the release date with fans exclusively on his social media channels at @jharden13 on Instagram and Twitter.

We did see the Harden LS listed on Eastbay’s release schedule so we can expect the ‘Night Life’ colorway to be available on July 1 for $160.

Do you like the move from performance to lifestyle while keeping elements from the performance model intact? It’s been a popular strategy for running-inspired footwear and appears to have now hit the basketball market. Let us know what you think of each colorway and the Harden LS in general.

adidas Harden LS ‘Fast Life’

Life in the fast lane — shifting gears at a moment’s notice, the game never sleeps. ‘Fast Life’ is built with custom detailing, highlighted by burgundy and candy orange Primeknit threads, lifted on black Boost and a gum outsole.

adidas Harden LS ‘LA Life’

Inspired by the California palm trees and ocean views, the ‘LA Life’ build is designed in triple white Primeknit with silver accents and a marbled outsole. It pays respect to the town where Harden learned to dream and fulfills those dreams.

adidas Harden LS ‘Night Life’

From pregame tunnels to the runway, Harden can make a statement simply by owning the moment. According to adidas, he keeps his style clean one night and is ready to show out the next. The ‘Night Life’ colorway dons black and white Primeknit with XENO three stripes on the heel and glow-in-the-dark elements featured on the Harden Mark.

adidas Harden LS ‘Sweet Life’

The ‘Sweet Life’ features pink Primeknit across the upper and gold detailing accented on the three stripes and outsole. It all starts with those that support your dreams and for James Harden that began with his mother Monja. From the first basketball hoop she bought him as a kid, to the home he purchased for her after signing his first NBA contract, the game always finds a way to give back.
