Adidas Harden Vol. 8

The Harden Vol. 8 is designed for the guard game — specifically for the low, lateral movement and explosive acceleration that perimeter players need. The Lightstrike cushioning is responsive rather than plush, providing court feel while absorbing enough impact for game duration. The herringbone traction is one of the best guard shoe patterns on the market for clean hardwood. The ankle collar is medium-height, which suits guards who want some ankle support without the high-top restriction. For point guards, shooting guards, and small forwards who play a perimeter game, the Harden Vol. 8 delivers the right combination of responsiveness and support.
