Please stop making fun of the Harden shoe. It looks like its already been roasted enough https://t.co/Kxc2SbLtef

Remember when the internet ripped Stephen Curry's Curry 2 Low Under Armour shoe?

James Harden was next.

On Tuesday, citing images apparently leaked by SneakersSpy, Sneaker Watch's John McFarlan previewed what appears to be the Houston Rockets star's Triple Black colorway of his first signature shoe, which will reportedly debut in December.

Let the roast begin in 3...2...1...

That Harden shoe is infinitely worse than the Curry shoe

Dan Carson @TheDoctorCarson
Did I miss something or are we really not going to flambé James Harden’s new shoe? https://t.co/gidEfLRHUe

James Harden has better personal style than that for those to be his signature Adidas shoe 😂

Childish Justino @JayAshon

Tyler Conway @jtylerconway

Alec Neimand @lgforkman

James Harden new signature shoe looks like it was inspired by a Dickens novel. https://t.co/8ONBkwAq4o

Sure, it's not the best photo in the world, and it probably doesn't do the design justice:

...I think that photo doesn't do James Harden's shoe justice. I'll wait to judge them when they are on the court.

That Harden shoe better look *waaaaaaaaay* better at a different angle otherwise I’m probably done with Adidas’ basketball designs

But still, the overwhelming reaction has been an emphatic thumbs-down.
