    It's not that safe if the lateral support extends that much. It is better the lateral support part is extended rather than depending on knit. This is prone to breaking ankles

  • @niikhilnayar
    @niikhilnayar 3 роки тому +34

    Correct me If I'm wrong but the Lebron's are built for Lebron. From the way he plays to his size and weight. So if you are big guy, heavy and doesn't depend too much on speed and lateral movement then these are perfect. But if you are a smaller guy with a play style like Curry, Kyrie, Westbrook or Dame then pick one of their shoes. It will be more suited for you.

    How is the fit of the shoe? I ordered my correct size in the 17s but I should have gotten a half size bigger because it is a really snug fit. Are these similar?

      It's the same snug fit for sure thought about returning mine for a half size bigger

      Not outsole are durable on cement dummy, and outrigger isnt need. Go be a broke hypebeast somewhere else, probably sent your stimulus check on some Jordans.
