The Nike Zoom Crusader is the first Swoosh basketball shoe in quite a while with a neoprene ankle closure. This unique approach to securing the foot is fitting for a guy who stands out with his beard and the rare ability to go for 25-5-5 every night. And it looks like in addition to the PE’s we’ve seen James Harden wear, there will be a variety of additional Zoom Crusader colorways to please the masses. This one in silver with a black Swoosh and orange sole would have worked for his old team OKC in a pinch, and it adds some eye-catching textures on the upper and laces as you’ll see in more shots below. Stick with Sneaker News for all the Zoom Crusader release dates and let us know how these compare to the rest of the performance basketball landscape.
