If there’s anything I missed or anything you’d like to know about the Harden Vol. 8 leave a comment!

[@uravgsnkrsguy]

Bro I love your reviews and the style of your videos. New subscribers here! You deserve way more subscribers

[@thereviewd]

I appreciate that! I figured they’ll come in due time. Thank you for sub, i returned the favor!

[@ttvWideShoes]

yo man, FIRE review. You have some great personality shown through the editing. As a fellow shoe reviewer, I took notes.

[@thereviewd]

Thank you! Definitely will check you out and get some inspiration too! I appreciate it!

[@ttvWideShoes]

@@thereviewd Thanks man! what shoes are you planning to review next?

[@thereviewd]

I got the GT Cut 3 ASW coming in that I’m gonna try. The ZoomX sounds great but I wanna see for myself. After that will probably be the AE1. What about you?

[@sudihoops]

Great review thanks! Only question I'm left with is, how did you find breathability? That is my biggest issue with the 7s, looking at these they don't seem much different in that regard.

[@thereviewd]

Great question! That stretchy mesh bootie is literally the only ventilation, it’s thin enough to allow some ventilation but that’s about it. Fortunately that cover on the toe box is loose so your toes get some air too but that’s it. I didn’t notice my feet getting too warm or sweaty but people’s mileage may vary.

[@sudihoops]

@@thereviewd I see, thank you!

[@zvakaca30]

Nice video man hello from Croatia

[@thereviewd]

Hello!! Thank you so much!!

[@londonstackhouse4145]

[@thereviewd]

I’m a big fan of the orange and black pair.

Thank you!

[@azuresage1067]

Great review Might get these

[@thereviewd]

Thank you! I think you’ll be happy.

[@AkberFarooqui]

Is it true to size with Nike as well? I'm a 10.5 in Nike. I've always had trouble with Adidas sizing since the D Rose Sigs.

[@thereviewd]

Same here! Adidas sizing has been all over but these… definitely true to size.

[@YourGenericBrownGuy]

bro your channel is hella underrated

[@thereviewd]

Ahhh THANK YOU!!! I really appreciate that!

[@drei1211]

Great review! A new subscriber here. Hope to see more of this type of videos in the future.

[@thereviewd]

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!! 🙏🏼 absolutely will, I appreciate the sub, the comment and thank you for watching!

[@lance24braden]

Drop the vol.8.i like ai 1..thanks

[@picknick3]

i had tons of pinching on the medial ankle due to the last lace lock and eva foam, if you had this issue at all how did you fix it?

[@thereviewd]

That foam piece did cause some pressure on both sides but as I played in them it wasn’t too much of an issue. But I definitely know what you’re talking about.

[@picknick3]

@@thereviewd thanks

[@Horstveratu]

love em but damn that foam on the side will crease so bad kinda like crazy 1s

[@thereviewd]

Ahh!! It happened so quickly too! That’s exactly what they reminded me. They’re a great looking shoe but that crease is ugly lol

[@Daeliplanet]

I notice with some of the Adidas basketball shoes that they’re a bit weighted, as is heavy weighted in the soles mostly. How are the 8’s compared to the others in the Harden line?

[@thereviewd]

I gotta say they didn’t feel heavy on the court, on the scale in a size 12 they’re coming in at 18.9oz which is heavier than I thought but it doesn’t feel that way. For the sake of comparison the Harden Vol 7 weighs 19.8oz in a 12. Definitely not the heaviest but they’re definitely not lightest either. On court though, you don’t notice it.

[@Francitocutz]

We need an ae1 vs harden vol 8 video

[@thereviewd]

Definitely happening, was able to get a pair off of foot locker! Coming soon!

[@kimhernandez7621]

The plastic one your referring to is harde vol 5

[@thereviewd]

Yep good catch I had to add a little asterisk. The vol 5 was different but didn’t fit good the vol 6 was an iteration of the 5. Sorry!

[@kimhernandez7621]

@@thereviewd no problem bro! Good review on the Vol 8!will definitely get it! Thank you for the review ❤️👍🏻

[@santibear8578]

I wear size 9 in yeezy 350 should I go with the same size for these? Ty Not wearing for basketball just for style

[@thereviewd]

The sizing for yeezy 350s have been really inconsistent, yeezys i usually went a whole size up to get a comfy fit. If you're a 9 in yeezy 350s, I'd probably say go down a half or even whole size.

[@santibear8578]

@@thereviewd i appreciate you bro! So a size 8.5 for these harden 8s if im a 9 in yeezys?

[@thereviewd]

Yep, you’ll have some room in the toe box, if you want a tighter fit, probably go with an 8.

[@thereviewd]

Thank you so much!!!

[@SincerelyJ927]

How you feel about wide foot with sizing?

[@thereviewd]

They’re definitely wide foot friendly. As a fellow wide footer I had space lol.

[@SincerelyJ927]

@@thereviewd 🙌🙌🙌🙌good to know man thanks...definitely gotta snag these and ae1 storm troopers on March 1st

[@thereviewd]

@SincerelyJ927 I want those! I got a bid in on goat…hoping.

[@SincerelyJ927]

@@thereviewd good luck on it bro hope you grab a pair

[@starscream2]

how do these stack up to the harden 7 in your opinion?

[@thereviewd]

They are really similar in the way they fit and perform so it comes down to design preference, I really like that more sleek futuristic design on the 8.

[@Dx9Trigger]

Whats better harden 7 or 8?

[@thereviewd]

They fit and perform the same but design-wise definitely like the 8’s design much more.

[@Dx9Trigger]

@@thereviewd Alright thank you

[@LeaveReligionDefenseless]

These or the AE 1’s?

[@thereviewd]

Ahhh I don’t have a pair yet but something tells me i need to. Right now I got the GT Cut 3s coming but I’ll pick up some AE1s and get back to you.

[@thereviewd]

Just played in the AE1s… definitely prefer the Hardens over the AE1s from a comfort perspective. Lots of court feel with the AE1, a bit too firm for me. They’re a bit on the heavier side too. Hardens are the better all round shoe for me.

[@williammoore1050]

Is the traction durable inside?

[@thereviewd]

Absolutely, it should hold up really well indoors.

[@williammoore1050]

@@thereviewd bet appreciate that

[@aweirdfilipino]

Do they really fit true to fit? They kinda look snug

[@thereviewd]

Crazy thing is I thought the same at first glance especially with the bootie but they’re super easy to get one and the toe box is surprisingly roomy.

[@SIRKSxFUNK]

I should’ve half sized down they fit too roomy

[@thereviewd]

Adidas sizing has been kinda all over the place. These were roomy surprisingly roomy, the volume 7 fit the same way.

[@SIRKSxFUNK]

@@thereviewd weird cause AE1s fit perfect for size 10, hardens going to get 9.5

[@thereviewd]

That’s really good to know, I have the AE1 next for a review, I haven’t tried them on yet, just hoping they fit. Went tts with a 12

[@yuuwann5482]

Do you have harden vol 3?

[@thereviewd]

I had them in the “different breed” and “90s rocket jersey” colorways but unfortunately sold them.

[@JAntonioPCabrera]

You re wrong vol 5 and 6 you present the vol 4 and 5, not the 6.

[@thereviewd]

Yep good catch, I had to add the asterisk, got my models wrong. Thank you!

[@somedude626]

Kobe’s addiidas shoes thinks harden shoes are ugly

[@4200Shields]

Possibly the ugliest shoe I’ve ever seen

[@thereviewd]

Yeah they're super polarizing but they performed really really well!
