I experienced the same thing on the Jordan 31 low. I was slipping all over the place, planting before pulling up, and even gathering steps going for a lay-up, I would slide on clean court floors. On the other hand I have a friend who's a bit heavier than I am and he always had great traction on the 31's. So I guess the utilization of the traction material and probably other tech features too really depends on the user.
You forgot the sponsor website nice video tho
@@hdz6894 Look in the description box as stated in the video.
I wanted to have them in my colection just for good looks but after all that China mix up I think I'll pass (unless it says made in vietnam:)
I hate the 17 lebron's they are so heavy compared to the 16s
When I didn't hear "bad boys", I knew what was coming.
True
And he sound so disappointed no excitement in the intro.
Haha so true
I swear to god i was going to comment the same thing then i saw ur commebt😂😂😂😂
Made-in-China shoes so nice, they make LBJ shut up and dribble
"on these bad boys" = 🔥🔥🔥
"on these guys" = no bueno
I don't care I'm still buying them.
BLACK OUT did you buy them?
he didn't call em bad boys 😂
i've heard what I needed to hear ✌️✌️
Cause of the traction but traction varies , I would test the traction out myself
spookazz bạn ở đâu ... 😂
@@bobsmith495 😂😂
loool
Made-in-China shoes so nice, they make LBJ shut up and dribble
0:17 “these guys right here” spoiler alert
By no means a baller.
That being said:
I work at a Amazon where i'm constantly on my feet and I have to say the cushion really helps me out. My lower back feels less tight most likely from the shock absorption from the heel.
That's what Ultraboost is for 😉
love the new style of presenting the performance review. very concise and straight to the point. keep up the good work nightwing!
LeBron plays so well they had to limit him by giving him bad traction on his signature shoes
👑
Vlad Omota Lebron doesnt feel what we feel. Nba players actual in game shoes are always better than the retail they are selling us
True. Plus the Nba courts are super clean compared to what he’s playing on
this preseason lebron is wearing some 16s that was in collab with a premiere shoe store in our country. just hope lebron wont slip on 17s. but its true the player's shoe is better than retail players, im sure the jordan 34 on zion's foot is much more durable than retails or else he'll break them again
Chris Tanada I think he is wearing lebron 16 lows like a teal and yellow color I just know he wearing lebron 16 low
First these on court demonstration performance reviews are next level loving them. So much better in that you can show exactly what is that you like or dislike about the shoe. The explanation about the traction was the perfect example of that, so much more insightful to see it than hear about it.
Never been a fan of Lebron shoes cause they tend to be bulky, heavy and high and I've seen guys wreck their ankles due to that instability, these continue the trend. Although the traction is great I'm not destroying my ankles because of them.
Been waiting for this performance review, I agree about the traction. The split in the pods is the culprit since it affects the area of contact of the traction. Awesome performance review and quality content as always 👍. #justwingit
thats the best review, literally, great job WRT
Thank god for notifications I was waiting for this one 🙏🏾🔥
Thanks for another solid review! Loved the editing and format of this video 🤙🏽
Reminds me when Night Wing did the LeBron 10s outdoors...night wing, stay knowledgeable!
LeBeautiful you the new Justin y
UR EVEN HERE, DAFUQ
I think i saw u on a jxmy video
He was also on every maxisnicee video.
Why are you in every single video ?
Hey man, I enjoy your vids. I’ve been watching you regularly since the Nike Zoom Kobe VI (which is still one of the best shoes I’ve ever worn). Keep on playing, man!
I like the style of this review. Nice work as always NW
Picked these up this morning. Thx to Nike customer service for applying a bday $20 discount code only for nonsale and launch shoes. Now waiting on the Black/Royal Blue Flight 89
thanks for this awesome review😁😁
Hella good review. I’m glad PG&E finally gave me power so I can watch it.
This style video for the shoe review was A1! Keep up the good work 👌
Great video Chris,you make a great point in regard to traction that can basically make or break a shoe.Glad that guy hit the three from your behind the back assist haha.
Used to watch ur vids back in hs. Been prob 5 years. Good to see ur still grinding man
What an amazing review!!!
Great review i might try them myself! Still waiting on the D Roses 10!
maybe i think the weight of the player can bee the factor also...as we all know this were designed for a bigger guy...or maybe im wrong...nice review as always
Absolutely love this style of video and review, love the fact your not settling and are trying new things constantly.
As for the shoes... such a shame, love the look, love the cushioning set up, but can’t be risking the injuries with a traction set up like that, what a let down, at least it’s a great looking shoe for casual wear
Been waiting for this☄️☄️☄️
Posting the performance review on the day the shoe releases? 👌👌
BRO thats ur best performance review yet. Yall doing it.
Thank u for showing us you're human with the miss shot. Ur vids r still outta this world!
Awesome video quality. Makes watching worth it on a thousand dollar phone.
This was in my recommendations when I watched your Lebron 18 Review
Great review dude! And bucketzzz haha
Been waiting for this! Sounds like the 16 low has been the best Lebron as of late?
Yo i been here since the lebron 9’s crazy how time flies.
Shit I’ve been here since 2009 :/
@@SocraticMind89 now going to the 18’s
I like the way how you are on court telling us about this.
I picked these up earlier today. I can't wait to wear them
I'm a new subscriber, keep it up bro! Gonna buy me one of this next week, what a cool looking shoe! 👟🏀😎🇵🇭
Nice review 👍
laker fans: DOES IT GIVE ME A 40 INCH VERTICAL LIKE LEBRON
That was me literally moments ago
Man, make your videos more bright
Awesome work man...
I haven't wear high tops for years, but these lebrons design are fire! I might get a pair today.
my first lebron signatures were the 16s and im glad i didn't miss out on too on the 17s compared to the 16s.
Being a heavier hooper always works your favor when related to Lebron’s sig shoes. Interested to see what they’ll do for the lows.
I am still copping a pair 🔥🔥🔥
Luis A same
How is it?
Luis A what would u rate them
The on court videos are a great throwback to the older vids. Great review as always!
Great vid as always, I think the traction could be activated by a heavier player maybe? Seeing as this type of shoe is made for large players
Shoes aren’t made for big guys or small guys. They’re made with specific attributes that some players want and other players may not. If they were only made for larger players they’d only release them in larger sizes. Shoes are made and sold to everyone. Sometimes they just don’t work out.
Exactly what I was saying. These are for the big ballers
WearTesters let me rephrase, shoe archetypes in general (but definitely sigs) are made on a weight-to-size ratio along with other factors like playstyle. Bron is 260 and wears a size 15 and his shoes perform optimally for him(possibly due to them being custom). Imo in order to get the best results the shoes should be put in proportionate circumstances I.e. size 10, 175lbs (idk how much u.weigh). Hopefully that makes more sense .
@@Lowkey-yb4nm That is 100% inaccurate and just marketing for these signature shoes. We've had many conversations with designers and design teams about the footwear they create and it has nothing to do with anything you mentioned. The marketing department deserves a raise for tricking you, and many others, into thinking that is factual information when it is not.
WearTesters think abt this more practically, designers will get on television and say “This shoe is for everyone” and on another commercial say “This shoe was engineered to fit all facets of LeBrons game to the highest degree”. Both of these statements could be true, but one more so than the other. Can anyone play in them? Yes, but the shoe will pretty much always serve the signature players archetype best. Think back to the past few years of sigs, brons (designed for a high flying heavy body like LeBron)have always had heaps of cushion under foot with thick uppers, Kobe’s(serving a more low profile player)have minimal cushion with thin pliable uppers. LeBron couldn’t play in a Kobe for extended periods of time because of the lack of cushion and impact protection etc. Anyone can play in any shoe but they’ll for the most part serve certain archetypes better than others depending on the shoe.
And in my previous comment forgive the weird terminology but basically all I was saying was “Kobe’s perform better on Kobe than they would on a 7 foot 300 pound center”.
Just picked these up I’m about 205 and I agree with nightwings thought on heavier players will have better traction these stuck just as good as the 16s for me
How are you still liking these? The traction good? I'm 6'5 230lbs.
u just got a new sub
These are my favorite shoes. I bought them for style, not performance. Personally, I think they look really cool. I haven’t seen any other shoes like it honestly...
Prove Me Wrong i agree as well i got some as well and i don’t regret it
The purple swirl looks amazing. The first time I saw the them in a store I grabbed them. This is exactly the kind of shoe I would have regretted not getting when I had the chance.
I couldn’t agree more with that because I actually got mine for the same purpose... now I’m actually using them for performance now
SirGriefALot same. I took one look and bought them lmao. I really wish they knew how much people liked that kind of design so they’d continue making them in the future.
william zhang sweet! Yeah, some people said the traction wasn’t as great as it could have been, but honestly I don’t think it would make that huge of a difference unless your really tryna squeeze out every drop of performance
These fire🔥🔥🔥
These saved my feet from the KD 7 elites I was playing in. Love this shoe, but I play on some haggard outdoor courts. I do wish they didn’t string the laces through the tongue tho.
Great review as always man. Ordered me a pair of the "ashes colorway". Ive personally never had problems with traction on LeBrons..maybe because i weigh 130kgs lol
Just got these, im 230 lbs and I have no issues with the traction, even on a dusty court it bites the floor. The extra weight really does help. (it has solid black rubber outsole so other colorways might be different)
Hell yeah I'm 270 so that's a relief.
This colorway looks amazing. Looks like I’ll still be balling in the 16s though.
Need to check these asap
I think the gaps in the traction is the one causing issues for traction. Awesome review as always.
Agree . I'm kinda disappointed.
Great review as always! Would you guys get hit with a copyright claim if you played the Mr. Roger's theme when Chris laces up his shoes? Because that would make that part perfect lol.
Sad to hear the traction wasn't up to par. I've heard similar comments about the Ashes colorway from people I know that have been hooping in them so far. I'll just grab one pair for casual use then.
LeBron got crossed today by Evan Turner and I now see what you're trying to imply with the traction. How he slipped totally looked like it's because of the pods. It's great how you noticed and felt that. Great work as always man.
I thought the same thing also when I saw Lebron slipped
He didn't get crossed. He slipped.
This Is Exactly Why I Am A Sub,
Chris Will Let You Know On A
Paticular Shoe About It's Material,
Performance Wise, History, Simply
"" NO FAKING THE FUNK HERE "
STRAIGHT FACTS!! Thank You Both, Very UNDERRATED!!
My Opinion.
So, buy these as lifestyle sneakers.
Great looks
Im a SG and it works fine. Helps on fast breaks
why does weartesters only have 438k subs. they deserve more!
Nice! You should do the 18s
I just bought these and I haven't tried them on the court yet but I wore these in my house a little bit and the traction fekt amazing, maybe I'll update when I try them on the court in the following weeks
I’m thinking about getting some LeBrons, can you tell me what your experience with them has been?
How you don't have over a mill subs is beyond me.
not surprised. a perfect analogy of the player it was made for...
The Soldier 11’s will probably always be my favorite Lebron shoe.
that shoe was great!!!
I really liked the soldier 9s, I still have a pair in decent condition
Ayy these actually fire
1:20 When nightwings hand squeeks and the shoe doesn't🤦
what u use the squeak for
ChronoKicks a shoe with good traction will squeak
I just found this channel and its fucking awesome!! Where the hell have i been this whole time!?!?!?
Use sticky sheets or pour alittle cola on those outsoles(stomp it dry ofcourse) when playing in indoor courts. Helped me alot.
Nightwing put those shoes on the floor and shoot the ball wearing jordan 1. I think this shoes are nope.
👀.......3:28......that physics explanation..... You needed a lab coat with that explanation bro......I love this channel. 😎
Yeah IMO they should've just kept the same single zoom pod setup that the 15s and 16s had on this one IMO. Nonetheless...
Nicely done Chris!!!
Great review as always bro. 👍
Best looking tho! Imma cop these when they go on sale. For casual.
I have lebron 17s and the traction is amazing best shoes I’ve ever had and they squeak a lot
im gettin these today
Traction pattern looks sort of like the 29's which worked well so it's interesting.
That's jacket is dope
Hoodie?
These look great to walk around in, especially the red carpet release. Wouldn’t play in them tho if the traction is crap, and that should be a dealbreaker for many who hoop. Better off playing in Blazers or AJ1 (both have beat traction ever), or hell even some AF1.
The traction concerns are real. I bought a pair for my 15 year old(6' 180lbs size 13) son today. He played a game in them 2 hours later and was sliding all over. He has practices all week so I am hoping they will wear and get better. They are comfortable for him, but I didnt spend $200+ for them to look good.
His 15s were great for him right out of the gate last year. The 16s were ok, but this is the first time I have witnessed him unable to stop without slipping. It threw off his game.
I got these because of lower back pain and cushion here is amazing. Anyway, the traction is terrible especially if you are a light person like I am. It is doable but I would not recommend these if you have explosive movements and if you like to shift fast. If I could combine the cushion and structure of these shoes with the traction of LeBron Soldier 12 (my previous shoes) these would be godlike.
Yoooo please make another review on the Lebron 17 future air it’s wayyyy better traction !!!
how did they mess these up lol they literally just had the best traction in the lebrons line.
Nightwing's LeBron 17 traction is very different with one that I have. I also have the same color and type of outsole, mine is James Gang colorway.
I’m thinking of getting the James Gang for basketball. What’s your experience with the traction in the James Gang?
Hoop outside first than hoop indoors the traction will be better like the 15 LeBrons
I have exact same issue with the currency version, that has semi-translucent outsole,
Imo its not the seperate pods that cause the issue, because my pairs only experiences the issue on dusty court
I think its the pattern of the outsole.
The pattern in the 17 dont let the air-pressure escape when you stop, because the closed-angled shapes dont provide the air to exist the outsole,
If you look at the 16s pattern, the “waves” does its jobs so well, because it doesnt trap the air once you squeak in motion,
So basically whenever you stop in the 17s there is a slight pressure going upward on your shoes, and it may lift your shoes upward, hence the shoes stop biting on the surface of the floor, and that let the lateral motion continue hence you’re gonna side,
That is the downside of the 17s pattern,
But i think the reason lebron chose this pattern is because , he puts the priority on acceleration from dead point, in other word, he’d be able to accelerate from a standing still faster with the 17s outsole pattern, because essentially the contact surface’s area is bigger than the 16s. The 17s dead friction can withstand the starting acceleration forces much better so it wont slip upon the start of his run.
17s is a great shoes imo, because if you learn to score efficiently with minimal extreme change of paces in lateral movements, you’ll do your body a favour of reserving its legacy in a long run.
I would say the "in the arena" colorway works better on traction
KOBE sighting 😀 7:10
I played with the witness 4 and the traction was great. So it's weird that the 17s didn't work out for you.
Those are fire
wow i'm shocked to hear that you had a bad experience with the traction. any chance you can get your hands on the future air pair? the translucent rubber was money for me
RicheeKim Same the future air is crazy grip
I got the same laker colourway and i have been sticking and squeeking on all courts bruh
5”11 220lbs slashing power forward
I just copped these at my local Foot Locker the Laker color way looks nice I'm 5'5 154 (I'm overweight and supposibly tall for my age) I'm going to use these at tryouts on Monday wish me luck personally for me jumping feels great
Edit: I made the team
Dude you've got to try those translucent outsole co'z the traction there is going to make like it very much
I copped theese today
I'm glad, I grab another pair of 16s instead of these. The traction in 16s are 🔥
I got the LeBron 17 today at champs the LeBron 17 are beautiful
I gave the 17s about 5 months on and off for over an hour each time and my legs always went numb wearing them. Maybe it's just too cushioned for me. I had to keep going back to the 34 and the Why Not 3s to get feeling back in my legs.
