You should also explain that these shoes are not designed for light weight people. They are designed for a large heavy person (Lebron James). These have plenty of traction for someone heavy enough to compress the air.
I got the LeBron 19’s that look just like this only the Nike logo on it is green and the bottom of the shoes are white, not red. Got a great deal on them through Nike, they were marked down to $100, then I had a 20% off promo code that stacked with it, so I got them for $80. Here’s my thoughts: They look great, however even going a size higher, they’re still snug. They advertised as being snug so I expected that. There were two other big issues for me with the shoe. The pointy flaps on each side of the shoe are plastic and get bent and were already bent weird from sitting in the box, while the look of it is hardly noticeable, it’s more of a feel thing. I would suggest wearing higher socks that go above the ankle, otherwise at least one of those flaps are going to rub on your bare skin on your leg and cause a blister. I learned this the hard way. Last problem with them is the bottoms of the shoes. I wore these out one day and stopped at a restaurant for lunch. They had recently mopped the floor that was partially dry, but it was everything I could do to keep from slipping and falling. I was a tile floor but you literally could ice skate on a wet floor with these shoes. Then I wore them over to my in-laws house and was walking in the kitchen and there was a tad bit of water on the vinyl floor and I nearly slipped and busted my ass again. Long story short, be very careful about wearing these shoes where there is any moisture at all. I found the laces to be fairly short too. If I had to rate on a scale of 1 to 10…. Comfort - 4 Look - 9 Safety - 2 I kept them because I got them for $80. If I would paid $200 for them, they would’ve gone back. 100%
i got these on stockx this week. Fits true to size, traction is good for me, it doesn’t really hug ur ankle that tightly, it heavy, but it helps you bounce like crazy.
@@brandonr1590 after i use this a couple times for volleyball, i have to say no to this shoes. Traction is good on a semi clean court, lots of cushion but they slow you down by alot. The shoes is heavy and bulky. Unless you are 250 lbs snd play slow, i dont recommended the shoes at all
@@seriouslydude8657 if u r a heavy player with power and straightforward movement then the shoes could be a good choice for you. It is not versatile or flexible, and it isn’t good for anything fast related. But it has maximum support in my opinion, and pretty good lock down
LeBron's sneakers have always been, in my experience, amazing to look at, but bloody uncomfortable to actually put on foot. These will look great as a display piece. However I can already feel the agony on my feet just looking at them on screen.
Have had these shoes for almost a year!! Bought them for volleyball given that basketball shoes are leagues ahead of volleyball shoes, and I can say that after about eight months of regular use, the mesh wiring on top of the shoe began to come apart. There is also zero ventilation and your feet will get incredibly hot in them. The laces are tied to the shoe using another form of string/lace, so pulling too hard on that to tie them up will snap them. The shoe's traction also kinda sucks. It won't kill you, but sometimes I'm uncomfortable wearing them because I don't feel very secure while making quick movements. Cushioning is obviously like the best on the market, but they are very clunky. I'm sure they're resistance training my vertical at this point, and I should be able to jump six inches higher by now. I got used to the clunkiness and barely feel it anymore, but when compared to my previous shoes they were definitely a LOT bigger.
Performance wise I think they are not the best option but for impact protection for old guys like myself will be great! But the fact that are heavy... you can't play for so long...and ventilation...! Thanks for the review!!!😉😎
all shoes with air zoom arent meant for outdoors. imagine when rubber wears off really quick whats next? just the air😂😂😂. same thing with buttom loaded zoom one they ran out the zooms will get damage next
I just played mine Last Night Im a Big guy and Tractions is great Maybe It's not for the Guards who are shifty... For me Who plays 4 this is a good shoe... 😊
Pass for me! Like you, I value good traction and cushion. While this cushion seems awesome, If theres an issue sliding like that, it’s a no go for me to play in! Especially for $200! So why is the Witness 6 better? Lol
@@dbk81 no problem. It's not always but it does happen. I still play in them but just rotate them with the soldier 14s and 11 at the moment. The cushion on the 36s are great also
I hate people buying comp basketball shoes just to have and collect instead of actually using them to hoop!!! Shits so annoying and it makes it so difficult to find size 12 legit basketball shoes anymore
@@dj-md2st because probably even he realised that no one needs such a huge and heavy shoe . LeBron basically plays like a point guard these days so it makes sense he prefers more guard like shoes
They work great for me. Maybe its because I weigh twice as much as you. The traction is not a problem for my end. I'd imagine its a problem because you are light as fuck.
Why doesn't LeBron wear his main signature shoe that often? I've been noticing that for a couple of seasons now. He'd usually wear his Witness line or even his Soldier line of shoes in games which is weird. Also, I've noticed he always folds/hides the Nike branding on his socks all the time while playing and I've always wondered why but I couldnt find anything online about it!
Basically certain companies you are not allowed to have there logo in NBA games so he does not want to get in trouble for wearing something with a brand he is not allowed to show.
i am a big kid with pretty strong legs and im pretty fast. Because these are heavy i think i can handle the weight hopefully. i am heavier so i need comfort so yeah.
Are these kind to the achilles tendon? I have a pair of the Kyries 7 and everytime I play in them my achilles start to hurt. I'm 6'1 230lbs. What would you all recommend?
I'm 6'3 230, tore my right Achilles in 2017. It's funny you mention Kyries because I bought the Kyrie Infinity last month and just like you said, irritates the Achilles. I bought some KD14s and they are great for Achilles. Stick with high tops for big men to protect your Achilles
I aint playing in any Lebrons. These max zoom are so unstable that i ruptured 3 ligaments in my left foot. Meanwhile i never roll my ankles in low tops like PGs and Kobes
@@brandonr1590 first game I played slipped and scraped my knee and if you wear short socks and you doing like a crossover feel like the shoe is poking your leg we’re u put your fit in the two sides so if u leaning your leg over tryna switch direction and the shoe still on the ground flat it feels like your getting poke shoe very sliding so I give it a 6-10 it’s good and bad idk how to explain
@@dunnodtb damn that's sad to hear. I was hoping it would be worth the price as I'm wanting to order a pair to add to my rotation. I don't know if I am yet or not now lol I keep hearing the traction sucks and about the tounge thing but I wear long socks so I'm not worried about that. Right now I rotate between the soldier 14s, solder 11s, and Jordan 36. They are all great tho the 14s and 36s have better cushioning. I was really hoping to add the lebrong 19s but no many videos on it yet and they don't have any local I can go try on.
I'm a fan of Lebrons but these are 🗑 just too much plastic IMO. That air unit in the heel will wear out fast and screams rolled ankle if you play in them.
Can we see some Sammy crossovers and stepbacks in slo-mo to see how the shoe performs traction-wise?
You should also explain that these shoes are not designed for light weight people. They are designed for a large heavy person (Lebron James). These have plenty of traction for someone heavy enough to compress the air.

It looks like a cartoon space boot. No traction means no go. Hope they make improvements on the low. Great review!
I like to train with heavy shoes like this in some days and then change to a lighter and responsive shoe and you feel the bounce right away

The 18s were mad comfy as long as you had socks that went up past the tongue.
Facts
not always LOL, lebron 10, 12, 15, 17,18 are comfy af 9s and 16s are the ones that don't feel good
The 16's are like pillows. And I play on concrete. I just played on mine for 3 hours straight last night

all shoes with air zoom arent meant for outdoors. imagine when rubber wears off really quick whats next? just the air😂😂😂. same thing with buttom loaded zoom one they ran out the zooms will get damage next
However on outside surfaces it’s gonna rub the rubber off more? Concrete>wood floor
why can't lebrons have good traction for once...at least except for the 16s
lebron 17 low had good traction
I have no issues with my 18 lows
Once he started using the air bag his traction went down
Soldier 11s have great traction
The Lebron 9 had good traction.
“LeBron is the king or whatever “ lol 😂

Too expensive, heavy, and unreliable traction so a pass and I'll just stick to the lebron 16 still.
If I’m spending that kind of money it’ll be on a Jordan 36.

Also size matters. Traction will be better for heavier guys. Not sticks 😂

Finally they fixed the latteral stability problem
Why does this show remind me of that bouncer shoe power up in Subway Surfers.
What happened to the other sole brother
This is another shoe that LeBron hardly wears. He still gets alot of wear out of his Witness line.
Why doesn’t he wear his signatures anymore?

Hey Donny-boy what do you like in a shoe?
Donny: "Quadruple Black Monarchs"
Excuse me, what happens if the crowns under the shoe are gone, does it still have traction?
Hi creator , can you do a review of shoes with durable traction ?
For outdoor? If so then look into pumas they usua have more durable traction
Find nike tennis shows for out door tennis. Those get the job done
Its already released in New Zealand 4 days ago

What’s the best Lebron shoe for performance
The Lebron 17 blow these guys out of the water.
Do you actually play in these in pickup or just go do reviews?
Trust me, nobody will ever genuinely feel comfortable wearing that heavy and stiff shoe. It's one of the worst that I've ever wore, performance wise.
Glad to see this
if this guy can feel the cushion… the cushion it’s pretty good
Only the King could wield his shoes. lol
