Nipsey Hussle Honored With The Marathon Clothing x adidas Harden Vol. 10

James Harden and Ermias Joseph Asghedom—better known across the globe as "Nipsey Hussle"—had a strong bond throughout the 2010s. Both entrepreneurs and figures accomplishing things at the top of their respective fields, the duo supported each other in public and made the world know some of their private ambitions—including Nipsey's desire for a sports agency.

Today, Harden and those in charge of The Marathon Clothing, a brand founded by Nipsey Hussle in 2017, have unveiled a collaboration that celebrates the NBA star's relationship with the late artist while positioning TMC at the pinnacle of performance basketball: a "Royal Blue"-colored adidas Harden Vol. 10.

The collaborative take on the adidas Basketball silhouette is the latest example of Harden's life, achievements, and interests informing a color scheme of his signature sneaker line. The futuristic hoops model sees its molded upper don in a rich shade of blue. A "TMC"-branded flag logo lands on the pair's spine, cementing the collaborative nature of the eye-catching release.
