adidas D.O.N. Issue #8 Drops August 15 in Lucid Tangerine
Donovan Mitchell's signature line continues its quiet ascent with the adidas D.O.N. Issue #8, arriving in a vibrant Spider-Man-inspired 'Lucid Tangerine' colorway. The latest model from the Cleveland guard's ongoing partnership with Three Stripes drops August 15, 2026 at $120.

While mainstream basketball sneaker discourse fixates on the usual suspects, Donovan Mitchell has methodically built one of the league's most underrated signature collections. His recent playoff success—a first conference finals appearance that vindicated years of small-market patience—coincides with the unveiling of the adidas D.O.N. Issue #8, a silhouette that rewards close inspection.
The 'Lucid Tangerine' iteration harks back to Mitchell's established Spider-Man nickname, translating that visual language into footwear form. Lucid Tangerine dominates the midfoot plate before radiating outward in gradient fashion across the midsole, creating a web-like effect that extends through the upper. Pulse Mint teal arrives as a complementary accent, appearing on the outsole, toecap, and heel counter. Black textile work the tongue and inner bootie, grounding the composition.
Design Details
The D.O.N. Issue #8 continues adidas's methodical approach to Mitchell's signature line—technical without ostentation, colorway-driven in a way that respects the player's aesthetic. The tangerine-to-mint gradient demonstrates restraint in how secondary tones can anchor a primary color story. This is the kind of careful chromatic thinking that separates considered design from trend-chasing.
For collectors tracking adidas basketball offerings, this release sits in a value-conscious pocket of the market. At $120, it undercuts most contemporary signature models while offering the technical foundation Mitchell's game demands.
