Honestly, I feel like most people can afford the LeBron XX but I would recommend KD 15's just because 50$ is not worth heel slippage. I'd rather pay 50$ less even if there is a little heel slippage.
Thanks for your feedback on these comparisons. I personally have not experienced any heel slippage in the KD15’s, to me it is a great all around shoe looks and performance wise, no complaints for me, I’m also really enjoying my Kyrie infinity’s aswell, so I have my two hoop shoes I bring with me when I go play basketball, I will eventually cop a pair of the Lebron 20’s for sure.. again thanks for the video!!!
Aesthetically, feels like Kobe 5/6 vs Kobe 9/11. Both are amazing performance wise! Sadly returned my KD15 because I just preferred the slightest softer ride of the KD14. Heel slip was noticeable but def tried the runners loop you recommended and really helped solve that issue! As always, appreciate your taking the time for this one bro!
Thank you for bringing up the heel slippage in the kd 15s. That was a deal breaker for me. I've been wearing the past 3 kd models and never had that issue. This is a deal breaker for me and had to return. Brons don't have that issue at all.
I laugh at the ✌️heel slippage✌️ narrative, only because I don't experience that feeling to the point where I would call it an issue. My feet haven't come out of any of my KD15's yet. 😆😆
Haven't tried the kd 15 but I got 2 pairs of the kd14. Enjoy that shoe . But sometimes you don't want so much bounce and that's why I would like to try the lebron20. Thanks for the review.
Amazing comparison between the top 2 Nike shoes. I just find it hard to believe if the Lebron 20 will ever go on sale based on the first official release results. It was almost sold out within 2 hours for the Lebron 20 Time Machine shoes (currently not on the Nike site as of right now). It might have to be an ugly color way to make a sale possible 😂.
Awesome comparison review bro, but KD will full length zoom stroble and less expensive is my go to hoop shoe now. Lebron 20 is just too hyped and expensive with less tech, so discount sale is the only reason I will cop.
Expensive with less tech? The KD 15 HAS NO CARBON FIBER MIDFOOT SHANK PLATE……. It has a simple plastic bottom loaded plate. The Lebron XX has a carbon fiber shank plate + it contains the heel and corrects the heel slippage y’all hate in the KD 15. That’s why it costs $40 more. That carbon fiber shank plate is what makes NBA players want to keep reusing their protro Kobe VI’s and asking for PE’s
I think the other reason many like mid/high top shoes is because the extra height usually results in better heel lockdown and restricted internal movement because with the extra laces (until Kobes changed that). Most good low-tops handle those just fine now, but it still goes back to most not understanding what true ankle protection is: heel lockdown, lockdown that prevents internal movement, and a wide base to prevent tipping.
Great video! I usually play in the KD 14s and got the 15s because I loved the look and wanted to try the low/ less bulky version. But I've never really felt stable in the 15s, maybe it was mental or the heel slippage, but I ended up rolling my ankle TWICE in the 15s. I really like the look and setup for the LeBron 20s as well but now I'm worried about ankle support. Does the ankle support in the 15s and 20s fair the same?
Just got a pair of the XX's couple days ago and there currently my new favorite shoes, second being my GT Jumps and believe it or not my LeBron 19's(Fastfoods) are 3rd!!!
I have a Nike product voucher coming so I’ll be able to get either of these (Lebron 19 forefoot zoom bag popped). I have the choice of either of these. I loved the 19s for the insane cushioning (5’11” 205lbs with knee issues, 36 yrs old). Would you pick the KDs for forefoot impact protection or the 20s? The higher off the ground the better for me, I hate feeling the court now at this age.
heel slippage is the deal breaker, but lets be honest, the Lebron XX is just so much cleaner and subtle than the KD15 with that heel slippin' Thano's chin
Which would you say is more narrow? As a wider foot I've tried both the KD 15 in 11.5 and 11 (my tts unless super narrow) and the 11 does fit a lot better with minimal heel slippage. They did feel tight at first but after two shooting sessions they felt good. Thinking about the Bron's but not sure what size to get. My foot is more wide than long. I also have the Jordan 36 lows in both 11.5/11 and the 11's fit better, but discovered pretty quick they have zero ankle support rolled same one twice in 5 games.
Thank you for the review, interested in getting the KD15 while also having the Lebron XX. Would you recommend sizing down to avoid heel slippage? I also have a wide flat foot and had to half-size up on the XX's
Your videos about the Lebron 20s finalized my decision to purchase them🙏🏽 and I got the new colorway. Question, has your packaged already arrived? Just wondering because it’s taken quite awhile for a shipment update…
Yup, agree! When I said they’d appeal to more people I didn’t have price as a factor. Hypothetically if a large sample of people played in both for free I’d say the 20’s would appeal to more.
KD 15 is too narrow, it hurt my feet for the first few minutes every time I play with them. Can’t go half a size up because of the heel slippage issue. But after few minutes, it become comfortable and nice.
So if I wear a size 4.5 in the LeBron 20’s in youth would I also get the KD 15’s in a 4.5 youth, because I wear a 4 youth in a Kyrie Flytrap 5 but a 4.5 LeBron 20
The meat riding for Lebron 20 is crazy Bro likes kd 15 more but all he keeps saying is heel slippage Like bro we can tell u like the kd 15 more just say it 🙄
Nope. Although aesthetics are important, the performance (if you watched the video) is off the charts. If the shoe DID NOT perform well and STILL looked like a Kobe, I wouldn’t like them at all.

The 15s should've had another row of eyelets for the laces. Last row ends too soon on the upper.
This right here would’ve made a world difference

We’ll said..
KDs may have more tech but the kd15’s cushion is lack luster and has crazy heel slippage

I was gonna get the lebrons but i wasn’t tryna look like the pink panther on the court so i went with those kd 15s which just came in today
Right now the PG6 is my favorite overall. How would you compare the PG6 to both shoes?
Full length zoom strobel anyday🤷
this is a great review. Im still hooping in my kd 14's

Can you do a comparison between the wow 808 vs WOW 10 and also the LeBron 20 vs WOW 10
Lebron 20 good Play for outdoor?
lebron 20 and kd15 good to use outdoor or good to use rubberize court?
Great comparison!! Quick question. Which shoe has better courtfeel and lower to the ground, which one is lighter?
Court feel is really close. KD’s feel lighter to me but only if you can get past heel slip. If you have heel slip it will feel heavy.
@@DGHoops Overall though they both feel very light and nimble right?
@@bilal_1817 yes, the 20’s are the lightest LeBron and feel that way.
@@DGHoops Thank you so much for your feedback!! Keep up these great videos!

Kd 15 ıs ıt narrow

The kd15 are not good I’m telling you
Your videos about the Lebron 20s finalized my decision to purchase them🙏🏽 and I got the new colorway. Question, has your packaged already arrived? Just wondering because it’s taken quite awhile for a shipment update…
Might are supposed to deliver today
My foot was hurting in the kd15 for just standing on the gym floor too long
I got the lebron 20 black n red pair on the way
I prefer the Lebron 20, but I have a hard time believing they will appeal to more based on price alone.
Yup, agree! When I said they’d appeal to more people I didn’t have price as a factor. Hypothetically if a large sample of people played in both for free I’d say the 20’s would appeal to more.
KD 15 is too narrow, it hurt my feet for the first few minutes every time I play with them. Can’t go half a size up because of the heel slippage issue. But after few minutes, it become comfortable and nice.
Copping both for aesthetics. Waiting for the Aunt Pearls in a couple weeks.
Update: got both
Any thoughts on the KD14 compared with the Lebron 20?
If you want a midtop that has more cushion (and plushness) get the KD14. If you want a responsive lowtop get the 20’s.
hi man should i go for a size down or up if i get a kd 15?
So if I wear a size 4.5 in the LeBron 20’s in youth would I also get the KD 15’s in a 4.5 youth, because I wear a 4 youth in a Kyrie Flytrap 5 but a 4.5 LeBron 20
Which one will bottom out quicker...im flat fooded
LBJ 20s are $200, professionals get the lebrons, KDs for students.
i already have the kd15 , im just waiting for the lebron xx to be available in my region
Are these ep versions
it ok if i wear leborn 20 without insole ??
What is currently your most favorite ball shoes right now from all the brands?
When is the LeBron 20 Miami Heats dropping? I thought it was today
Nov 3rd I believe.
@@devanteross2838 thank u I was so confused because multiple articles said it was releasing October 5th
Cant wait to get a full run in the kd 15 I rolled my ankle non contact in the first 20 mins
In what shoe?
@@TheDon6 kd 15
@@pb3 I’ll be avoiding them then
@@TheDon6 you don’t have to might’ve been a freak accident the cushion is amazing I still play in them time to time with my rotation
@@pb3 I see a lot of people having the same problems. I actually rolled my ankle first time ever in some kd13s which is crazy.
The meat riding for Lebron 20 is crazy
Bro likes kd 15 more but all he keeps saying is heel slippage
Like bro we can tell u like the kd 15 more just say it 🙄
I feel like if the Lebron didn’t look Soo much like Kobes then you would not be going as hard as you have been about them
Nope. Although aesthetics are important, the performance (if you watched the video) is off the charts. If the shoe DID NOT perform well and STILL looked like a Kobe, I wouldn’t like them at all.
Doesn’t even look like Kobe’s, the look is definitely like Air Force Ones which is Brons favorite shoe off court.
