The debut of the Dame X lingers as the biggest current question in Lillard’s signature shoe line. However, with release info for that latest step unclear, there’s still runway for the Dame 9 to round out its catalog. Aligning well with #0’s Milwaukee threads, the Dame 9 “Metamorphosis” appears, queued up for the middle of March.

This shoe appearing on release calendars finally pulls back the curtain on the “Metamorphosis” pack as a whole, a viridescent set of looks for the Three Stripes’ latest and greatest hoops models. The Dame 9 adapts the green theme in pretty standard fashion, pinning the vivid neon green on the outer TPU cage and outsole, while pinning jet balck down the fabric interior and throat.

Again, the shoe at hand comes alongside a collection of all of adidas’ foremost signature models, including the D.O.N. Issue 6, Harden Vol. 9 and AE1 Low. Similar make-ups of inline silos like the Exhibit Select 2.0 and Adizero Select 3.0 also join the crowd. The adidas Dame 9 “Metamorphosis” releases with all of these pairs on March 145th, itself carrying a $120 retail price.
