The look of the material is not so premium. It looks cheap and in many colourways, it gets dirty very easily. Also, it has a Harden branding logo just above the laces that looks cool. The toe box of the shoe has Harden touch that looks so cool. Adidas has recently released a colourway of Harden vol 6 that matches the Philly threads.

Adidas Harden Vol. 6 is the best basketball shoe in so many ways. The James Harden 6th signature shoes are better in many aspects than its previous model. The shoe replicates James hardens playoff style on the NBA court.Adidas has taken a step to make shoes from recycled materials. So this hardened vol 6 is also manufactured from 50% of production waste for its 25% parts. The adidas Harden Vol. 6 Green Mist Pulse Aqua is a 2022 upgrade of James Harden shoes built on the ethos of sustainability and comfort. The most notable of changes is the construction itself, which changes out the paneling and materials but not at all the general shape. Whereas previous iterations dressed its side with Three Stripes, the branding here is all but removed, opting instead for a much cleaner side profile. Various heart-shaped overlays are spread throughout, matching the color of the robust leather upper. Elsewhere, the lace unit matches similarly, doing so with a mesh far more breathable than what was used prior. Various accents are then outfitted in contrasting hits, whether that be bright pastels or monochromatic additions. The Adidas Harden Vol. 6 uses full-length boost midsole cushioning. Alongside the Nike zoom air, the Adidas boost is also one of the best cushioning setups.

The shoe shows very promising outdoor performance. The hardened vol. 6 has a herringbone pattern on the outsole with deep grooves. The shoe has a very hard internal TPU heel counter. That supports the heel and Achillies area very well. The internal sides of the heel have six Achillies pads to provide extra comfort to the stiff Achilles tendon.Traction on the harden vol. 6 is so good that it does not even slip on a wet floor. However, the rubber outsole gets dirty on the outdoor courts very easily.
