The upcoming model is his second off-court reinterpretation of his performance signature basketball shoe from the Three Stripes after the Harden Vol. 1 LS released last year. The new model dubbed the Harden LS 2 Buckle is a stylish makeover for the Harden Vol. 2, which he wore throughout his MVP-caliber 2017-18 NBA season.

A more significant remodel of his performance shoe in comparison to the first lifestyle sneaker, the Harden LS 2 Buckle features a creative redesign of his second signature shoe to match the superstar’s known eye for fashion. Built atop the same sole unit as the harden Vol. 2 with full-length Boost cushioning, the upper is transformed into a high-fashion-inspired silhouette with a deconstructed design in premium leather with a suede toe. The most notable element of the shoe is a buckled cross strap system that replaces the standard shoe laces.

The result is a simple and sophisticated sneaker that although is built on the foundation of a performance basketball shoe, looks like it’s miles from the court.
The Adidas Harden LS 2 Buckle is previewed in two upcoming colorways including a solid black upper with white sole, and a second option in tan and teal. No release date has been announced yet, but you can expect the shoe to debut later this summer.
