Release Date: adidas Dame 8 。Instead of aiming for a radical remake of the Dame silhouette, the new entry in the eponymous shoe opts for a refinement of effective elements from previous editions. The mid-cut height is an integral part of Lillard’s preferences, as is the need for a lightweight upper. This is ensured via mesh uppers and supportive welded panels, which this time is made from about 50 per cent recycled materials – a first for performance basketball shoes, especially at the highest level of the game. Underfoot, the midsoles have been updated with basketball-specific Bounce Pro foam compounds paired to a slightly updated outsole pattern taken from the Dame 7.
