Full GQ story, written by Devin Gordon here. 

James Harden sported some new looks in a recent feature as the cover of GQ magazine. You can read the story for yourself, but let’s go down the list of exactly what the NBA’s expected 2017-2018 MVP was wearing,


“Yeezy season approaching
F–k whatever y’all been hearing
F–k what- f–k whatever y’all been wearing
A monster about to come alive again”
 

-Kanye West, “On Sight.”

“There is no Gucci I can buy
There is no Louis Vuitton to put on
There is no YSL that they could sell
To get my heart out of this hell
And my mind out of this jail”
 

-Kanye West, “Pinocchio Story”

“You don’t see just how wild the crowd is?
You don’t see just how fly my style is?
I don’t see why I need a stylist
When I shop so much I can speak Italian”
 

-Kanye West, “Champion.”

James rocks a lemonade fit for the ages. Supreme jacket. Adidas track jacket priced at $80 and Daniel Patrick track pants priced at $350. Of course, $450 Yeezy-3s. Most expensive part of the outfit? The $510 Gucci shades.

Adam, Eve wear nada
I’m in between but way more fresher”

An eye-opening feature for Harden.

From his rookie contract in Oklahoma City where he was a top three sixth man in the league to being the undisputed face of the Houston Rockets. The South Central, Los Angeles native has transformed into a fashion icon before our eyes, on his own.

With everything he’s accomplished this season plus what has yet to come, the Beard gets to add ‘cover of GQ Magazine” to his list.
