James Harden‘s sneaker endorsement history is quite interesting. Initially, Harden signed with Nike, inking deals in 2009 and again in 2013. However, in 2015, he made a significant shift, signing a deal with adidas reportedly worth over $200 million across 13 years. Since joining adidas, the 2018 MVP has released eight signature shoe editions.
Take a look at the Nike and adidas sneakers he has worn throughout his NBA career below:
