Anyone with knee tendonitis/old injuries playing in these a lot? How're the old joints liking these shoes?

My time in the D Rose 7 left me with better knees than i had before i started playing basketball again lol. Not sure how this is possible but my knees currently feel the best they have in all of 2016 and ive increased my playing time by at least 2-3 times.
Why don't you just keep playin in the Rose 7's then?

The Rose 7 offers of course softer boost-cushion than the Hardens.
 
If memory serves me correctly the Gila monsters are somewhat of a nod to his alma mater Arizona state; But they didn't want to do the typical colors. I think Its inspired by the gila lizard that's native to Arizona. Something along those lines.

Is it just me or is this guy trolling now? I say pay him no attention - he's entitled to his opinion and I guess I'm entitled to think it's absurd haha...

Obviously this "guy" is a kid. I also say pay this kid no attention. Harden would still be putting up these numbers if he was playing in Nike budget shoes. Did you not notice the Rockets have a new coach and playstyle? Do you remember Sir Steve Nash and who was coaching him while Nash won back to back MVP? D'Antonio playstyle is fast uptempo, 3s and layup meaning stats should come easy for Harden especially when they have no inside presence like an Amare or Dwight. This Nando kid is just a troll and if he thinks a shoe going to make him play better Ill sell him my And1, the same Tai Chi VC won the dunk contest in, for $1000.
 
can't tell if you're being sarcastic but this is NOT okay in my opinion.

Demand quality for your money.
Bad job Adidas.

Really? You cant tell he was being sarcastic? Really? Whats going on with "Man" these days.. We used to be able to spot jokes and sarcasm now everyone so dan sensitive. Thank you Obama...now thats Sarcasm.

Im just joking.

If you have the red/white And 1 Tai Chi......I need you to be completely serious man! Lol. Don't play with my emotions like that.
 
I'm here for the "Gila Monster" colorway honestly. I've been lurking waiting for some info since the first joints dropped just itching...

Well there is that colorway according to the Harden Vol 1 commercial. As for if it's legit, it could be. Could also be a rep. There are always someone getting early pairs before releases. Like you see a lot of leaks come from China because they somehow get it from the factories. That and there's also a poster in this thread that got the camo (or was it the gila?) cw early I think.

It looks pretty close to the photo. I imagine the exact color is just different due to the lighting.
 
Lace swaps are definitely a personal preference type thing. I like the stocks, but I get the function over form of it.

I went a full size down on these and they fit me much better. Adidas sizing is bananas. Nonetheless this sneaker is dope and so comfortable. Def casual friendly.

Can't wait to see the All-Star colorway.
