Upcoming Release: Adidas Unveils Harden Vol. 9 'Icy Metallic' Edition
Hey there, sports and sneakerheads!
The NBA Playoffs are in full swing, and James Harden and the LA Clippers are giving it their all against the Denver Nuggets. But if there's one man who's no stranger to a intense series, it's Harden himself, who's been in this situation a whopping 16 times throughout his 16-year career.
When he's not making basketball history, Harden is rocking his latest signature sneaker—the Adidas Harden Vol. 9. And coming soon, we'll see a recurring colorway of his on the court during the rest of the playoffs.
First introduced in December 2024, the Adidas Harden Vol. 9 has been consistently releasing new themes and colorways each month. We've seen some exciting releases, like the "Hellcat" model inspired by one of Harden's muscle cars.
But the buzz is all about the upcoming "Ice Metallic" colorway. This sleek and stylish design pairs perfectly with the Clippers' uniforms, and it's been one of Harden's go-to choices for the past few months, including games during the current playoffs.

So what makes this colorway so special? Well, the TPU-molded upper creates three waves throughout the shoe, which is done in Glow Blue. The inner boot and top of the sockliner and ankle are also blue, while the outsole features icy blue translucent outsoles with a white Adidas three stripes logo running through the back heel.
Other highlights of this colorway include Harden's logo embossed on the back heel leather, white pull tabs, and a white lacing system. All in all, this is one of the cleaner colorways we've seen from the Vol. 9, and it's sure to turn heads when it hits the court on May 10, 2025.
The shoes will be available for a retail price of $160 via Adidas and select retailers. And with family sizing available, don't miss out on your chance to cop one of the hottest sneakers in the NBA playoffs!
