After the release of the Reebok Question “OG Meets OG”, which was inspired by the Harden Vol.1 “Pioneer”, Adidas and Reebok is teaming up again to bring a boxset consisting of the signature shoes of James Harden and Allen Iverson.
The shoes come in a special packaging featuring a pop-up basketball court with Allen Iverson and James Harden both driving to the basket. Each panel at the top consists of each player’s mottos that drove them to become one of the best to players to play the game. On the floor, dates of the release of their first signature shoes are written each accompanied by their logo.
The Harden Vol.4 takes inspiration from the Houston Rockets jersey from the days of Hakeem Olajuwon. The iconic dark blue gradient stripes over the white upper mixed with the red accents does a good job at paying homage to the iconic jersey. On the elastic band on the forefoot area, “Dynasty” is written in a classic Rockets font acknowledging the huge achievement of back-to-back titles back in 1993-1995.
The Question Mid borrows the palette used by the Harden Vol.4 to construct its colourway. While it takes inspiration from the Rockets jersey, it isn’t as obvious as the Hardens. The signature gradient stripes is found on the inner lining and the jersey’s colour scheme can be spotted on the Reebok logo on the side and the Question logo on the heel. Additional details include the Harden logo on the back of the midsole and Harden written on the inner eyelids.
The special packaging which comes with the Harden Vol.4 and Question Mid is set to release on the 9th of September at select retailers.
