Summary
- adidas Basketball has confirmed the Harden Vol. 11 launch window: the Lucid Blue “UNO” colorway releases December 11, 2026, at $160 via adidas.
- A second launch colorway, “Year Of The Goat,” has been revealed in official images and is also expected in December; its exact date and price have not been announced.
- The Vol. 11 keeps the line’s futuristic, sculptural direction — a molded synthetic shell with pronounced ridges over mesh, scaled down versus recent models, with two fang-like extensions at the toe.
Eleven signature shoes in, James Harden’s adidas line remains the most visually uncompromising in basketball. The Vol. 11 first surfaced in July, and the latest official images finally show where the design is heading: the armored, ridged shell of recent Hardens is still there, but it is scaled down and layered over mesh, so the shoe reads technical and aggressive at once — down to the two fang-like extensions at the toe.
The launch colorway does the storytelling. “Lucid Blue,” also called “UNO” — Harden’s nickname and the name of his Uno Day summer run — is the confirmed December 11 debut. Alongside it, adidas has revealed the “Year Of The Goat” edition, a second perspective on the silhouette that is also expected before the year ends; its date and price are still to be announced, and we will update this post when they are confirmed.
Eleven models also puts Harden in rare air: he is on track to pass Derrick Rose as adidas Basketball’s longest-running signature athlete when his current deal runs toward 2028, and he has openly talked about wanting a lifetime deal with the Stripes. Chapter eleven is not an ending — it is a calendar date now.
