Hey Guys! Today we take a detailed look and review at the brand new version of the Nike LeBron 21 sneaker. Trying to grab a pair yourself? Shop Phenom: ca.phenomglobal.com/ Buy at Foot Locker: footlocker.8s4u9r.net/q4jyon Buy at Nike: go.weartesters.com/BBAAJkB
I noticed that on Dick’s Sporting Goods, they listed them as the “LeBron 21 Textile”, so that’s very interesting to see! Edit: it looks like DSG put that label on the wrong shoe, but still very interesting!
There is going to be a mark that you will need to do the things like to buy food or to sell things but I want to tell you that do not do it. It may seem it is wroth it but if you take that mark you will go to hell and then there is no change if you take that mark. And also the people that want you to take it they will say stuff like if you take this mark you will for ever but if you take that mark you may live a little longer on earth but you will go to hell for ever and ever but if you stay with God and be faithful to him you will go to haven because. 1 you must accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior. 2 Roman’s 10 nine if you declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart and believe that God raise him from the dead you will be saved and if you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior and live a life for him you will not go to heaven you will go to hell and you will be there for ever and if you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and live a life for him you will go to heaven for forever and Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life no one gets to the father except through him✝️❤️✝️
Haven’t watched in about 4 years since I did my ACL, had to stop playing, and started avoiding the stuff that reminded me about it. I miss watching your stuff though dude! Easily one of the best channels on UA-cam, and love that you’re still bringing the same energy and personality to everything you put out. Legend.
They're now up to 21.How time flies.Still remember how good looking the 10's were.Used to be fond of sneakers till I started to have different priorities.
I love that Chris pointed out the refresh aspect of this colourway because, with brands popping out releases almost daily, I had forgotten nike basketball used to do this right about the end of the regular nba season going into the playoffs. I looked at the new colourways and all I could think was they're just new colourways.
Another great review as always! I agree with Chris on this one. As much as it would suck to never win a chip, the money, influence, and lasting impression would be hard to pass up.
melo m8 one of the first shoes i bought because of your reviews, great for wide footers as well. Thank you so much for over 10 years of performance reviews !!!!
the elite series was so cool for the playoffs, not so much the price, but i’ll never forget those kobe 8 elite with double zoom units in the lunarlon, good times
I just returned a pair of the LeBron 21 "Tahitian's" super cool looking shoes. Beware the steal eyelets at the top of the shoe gave me bad blisters on the inside of my ankles. Please try them on first to make sure. My friend also bought a pair and had the same complaint. He said it took about 5 runs to break in. I'm to old for that. Recommend the Curry 24 Splash Jam or the Puma Scoot Pro Nitro. Super comfy. You can just put these on and ball with no break in required. Those are my type of shoes !
Best thing about the “refresh” models is we get that heavy discount on the original model; I liked the LeBron 21 before but LOVED grabbing a pair recently for $80.😉 QotD: I have to say role player, just because it’s how I always see myself. I’m part of a collective with shared goals and reaching the absolute peak of those goals is rewarding in a different way. And yeah, not knowing who KCP is was wild to hear from Chris.😂
Anyone ever experience the carbon fiber plate in the misfortune hurt your feet I'm 2:45 6'3 don't know if cause I'm heavier guy etc 😢 unfortunate cause I have the miami colorway an like em so much
This is probably the first colorway of the 21s that I’d consider getting. I love how simple it looks. I always thought I’d want to win a bunch of rings a role player but Chris talking about the endorsements and other post career moves has changed my thoughts on this. Not a QOTD but I’ve wondering, how do you remove an insole that’s glued in if you don’t have a hairdryer?
50 yr old OG Footaction, Foot Locker, Finish Line sneakerhead here. Just copped these 21's for $119 at Dicks Sporting Goods. Helluva deal and great review for a great shoe
Great video as always. I'm definitely copping that colorway. Those remind me of kobe 6 fade to blacks. I have a question of the day for you. Which is your best foam based cushion setup out of these 3 options. Li ning light foam plus, nike pylon or adidas cloud foam?
Interesting. These might be a cop down the line too. So far I've got the Tahitian and the Abalone. Overall really happy with the shoes considering the sale price
@@JBillionzz They look great in person. The upper does scuff easily if someone steps on you etc. but it doesn't impact performance and the material actually requires a shorter break in time than other Bron 21s
I just got these exact 2 color ways. The Tahitians sick and the Abalones are soo sick and psychedelic looking. I can’t believe he’s sh*tting on them in this video at 4:09 🤣
I’m a fan of the LBJ 21 incredible comfort and the oceanic theme. I think these look good but not enough to run out and get them…would rather be the great player they never won the big game. You still have a legacy people will respect
Interesting refresh. I was gonna say that layer of plastic doesn’t make it breathable…but then remembered the original had a second layer on top, so never mind. Heat welding those cables does beg the question, were they actually functional in the first place since that stiffer upper from the plastic coat is essentially providing the support. 🤷🏽♂️ As for the question of the day, I agree….from a business and money making standpoint, I’d rather be the star if not superstar player, simply because of everything Chris stated. The leverage and marketing opportunities Weill be abundant and you can parlay that to more because you’ll attain more access….look at what Steph is doing with his production company and his TV shoes he’s produced. The rings are great….look at Robert Horry…he’s got 7 rings, but he’s not making those same moves. I stand corrected….if I’m wrong. 🤷🏽♂️😁
The shoe is great performance wise and good looking but now… the way they have the exposed ribs look to them almost any color way would look amazing great video Chris as per usual
Honestly I wear 11.5 for every nike I own. These were definitely the smallest shoes ivr had in a 11.5 and theyre my favorite shoe ive ever had. Buying the new version in 12s
Dude I just got these and they look sooo sick, I can’t believe he’s sh*tting on them in this video lol. They’re such a unique colorway and they have a psychedelic thing to them.
These look solid, but I agree, the ones with the leather upper covers were a better shoe if priced the same. But seeing them at discount is always nice. I’d rather be a role player with multiple rings. Those guys could also rank in the cash and they tend to be great coaches or work in the NBA in other roles. I’m thinking along the lines of Steve Kerr
They’re on Nike now. They look nice. I’d rather be “The Guy” than being a role player. It’s like asking would u rather be Carmelo Anthony or Robert Horry.
I live in Baltimore, Maryland (where the key bridge collapsed) and was super shocked when he mentioned the bridge like oh wait he is referring to here. Respect 💪🏾. Caught me off guard with you being on the west coast, but anyway love your channel. Been around since the Air Force 180s phoenix suns color way review !
The thing is with the 21s. Unfortunately I had issues with the insoles, making it very tight with a dragon pearl color away and never had that problem with Lebron but I may give it a chance.
Felt like I should comment because I've been a big supporter of yours throughout the many years you've been on youtube but I can't believe it has already been 11 years since the 10, which was the first Lebron that I got and ever since then I've really only liked the 10s, 20s and now these. The Lebron's I had were actually the Floridians and I remember when I first saw those leak, I remember there was a white colorway as well that didn't release. Let me know if you remember that!
I think you didnt notice it, but on the previous version of the 21s, they use like 4 flywires for the shoe laces compared to the new version they used none. So would it effect the containment?? maybe a little.
I think this refresh came from people whining about how the upper looks bad after a few wears and after getting a pair I can see it. I rather be that guy who everyone says was good but no chip than the guy who has a chip but is just seen as in the right place at the right time. Mrs Wing actually said the name correctly btw
I felt so restricted in the first round so absolutely feeling the idea of a lighter version. Probably not question of the day material, but are you into the A's moving to Sacremento?
Another solid review. The chrome colorway Lebron wore when he dropped 40 on the Nets is crazy. I would rather be "that guy"! The legacy of being a stand out player greatly improves your earning potential even after your done playing.
Hi Chris I would like to as your opinion about recent Nike Basketball shoes that the toe placement is more align toward centre. do you think this design is reasonable?
Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior improvements... What would that shoe be?
Good job. U pronounced Kenavious Coldwell Pope name perfectly. He was a role player on Lakers during COVID n won championship and is now on Denver and won championship last year as well.Hes a lot better then Luke Longley. Haha I'm 46 yrs old so I grew up watching the Bulls and am a huge Lakers fan. Keep up great work guys Question. if u could be any animal what would u be?
Am I the only one who hates Nike fly wire?? 916 in the house!! Loved the channel for awhile now and can always depend on you guys to point me in the right direction of dope local kicks shops.

I got a question about the lebron 21 if it was breathable and is the ventilation is good or not
YOOOO They picked my question!!!!
In this scenario WT, you would rather be KCP, a lottery pick, 2championships( LA and Denver) and multiple contracts
Should of said Udonis Haslem
@@nb4857he used to be but just doesn’t follow as much anymore due to family/work
nice

56yr old Sneaker Head from Detroit,really like your overview of new sneaks,thanks, keep it going

This was a great idea for the 21 and I think these look better. Great review
Great review by Chris again. Well done keep it going guys...the camera work is also great.
Another great review as always! I agree with Chris on this one. As much as it would suck to never win a chip, the money, influence, and lasting impression would be hard to pass up.
Haven't picked up a 21 yet. Waiting for a sale but I definitely want to pick up 1 or 2 by the time the 22 comes out. Great review update!
Huge sale now, 50% off !
4:18 I literally just got that pair of Abalone’s… Thanks dude.. 🤣 I wanna play I’m them because they look sickkk
melo m8 one of the first shoes i bought because of your reviews, great for wide footers as well. Thank you so much for over 10 years of performance reviews !!!!

If only the colors weren’t so bad except for that black and gold pair
@@andremotley6550 the theme was “hero’s” so i guess they tried to make em as vibrant as possible but the black and gold pair was obviously better lmao
Keep doing what yall do! Been watching for years bro! Btw… the shirt is sick!!!
Great review Weartesters! Best channel and website for hoop shoes ❤❤❤

Always the best in reviewed!
Hey Chris how’s the sizing compare with the 20?
Same
Lebron 20 is still my favorite. Super comfy and looked great.
Lebron 20 is the worst shoe I ever had in 20 years of hooping 🙏🏼 just awful
Anyone ever experience the carbon fiber plate in the misfortune hurt your feet I'm 2:45 6'3 don't know if cause I'm heavier guy etc 😢 unfortunate cause I have the miami colorway an like em so much
This is probably the first colorway of the 21s that I’d consider getting. I love how simple it looks.
I always thought I’d want to win a bunch of rings a role player but Chris talking about the endorsements and other post career moves has changed my thoughts on this.
Not a QOTD but I’ve wondering, how do you remove an insole that’s glued in if you don’t have a hairdryer?
Caldwell pope with the nuggets! Damn great player and a huge role player for the team. Nuggets back to back!!
QOTD: star player that never got a ring. Chris nailed it. The contracts and sponsors are where it's at.
Things I love. The new lebrons 21 and the wolverine deadpool tshirt.
Also love your work nightwing!
Just purchased the red. These sneakers are one of the best of my collection. Keep up the great content.
What’s the weight of one for the shoes? And what size is it?
I'm glad they released these. I immediately copped every color way of this "refresh"
Which is better overall in your opinion? Wow 10s or lebron 21??
Wow 10 is better overall.
50 yr old OG Footaction, Foot Locker, Finish Line sneakerhead here. Just copped these 21's for $119 at Dicks Sporting Goods. Helluva deal and great review for a great shoe
Kinda off-topic, but wouldn’t it be awesome if the Book 1 got a high-top as an “SE” version?
Only sneaker review channel I follow! And it was a pleasure meeting Chris yesterday hooping at my gym!
Thank you for all your support!
I watch your vids all the time. Awesome vids 🎉
Awesome! Thank you!
Great video as always. I'm definitely copping that colorway. Those remind me of kobe 6 fade to blacks.
I have a question of the day for you. Which is your best foam based cushion setup out of these 3 options. Li ning light foam plus, nike pylon or adidas cloud foam?
Best part about Lebrons... they are more comfortable than Jordans and already reselling for under retail. Got my pair on the way
These and damn near every 20 is🔥🔥🔥
What colorway you get?
@@BobRoss-wm3lc I have these in the video and the Easter joints on the way right now. I have like 4 of the other colorways also.
@@Mr_Jay_Ones I can’t believe he doesn’t like the Abalones, that colorways sickk
@BobRoss-wm3lc yes I have those too... I didn't like them until I seen them in person. The Ice Blue colorway is dope too
Interesting. These might be a cop down the line too. So far I've got the Tahitian and the Abalone. Overall really happy with the shoes considering the sale price
Tahitian looks dope. Been thinking about getting them since they’re on sale right now
@@JBillionzz They look great in person. The upper does scuff easily if someone steps on you etc. but it doesn't impact performance and the material actually requires a shorter break in time than other Bron 21s
I just got these exact 2 color ways. The Tahitians sick and the Abalones are soo sick and psychedelic looking. I can’t believe he’s sh*tting on them in this video at 4:09 🤣
Great video as usual Cris watching every video in the last 6/7 years 🤘😎🏀
Thank you 😊
Is this true to size or like the 1st version that need 1/2 up? Thanks
Bought these today and tried them in store. I say true to size and I was surprised how roomy they are compared to the usual LeBron sizing.
@@momohirai064 I noticed that after 3 games. I put a game day pro on mine.
Chris knows his stuff!
These are dope, Lebrons are soooo comfy. Definitely on my list.
Absolute banger video! ❤
Yeah that shoe works.. I mean, Bron was 9 for 10 behind the 3 point line with those kicks 😂
lol
Man was cooking
How many flops though?
I rather be the star player that never wins, you will be known by everyone and bigger contracts like Chris mentioned
Awesome as always. Thank you!
Are you going to review the Tatum 2?
fav sneaker channel
Love the channel
Great video as always!
I’m a fan of the LBJ 21 incredible comfort and the oceanic theme. I think these look good but not enough to run out and get them…would rather be the great player they never won the big game. You still have a legacy people will respect

I love this color way. Haven’t seen anything similar since the Nike Kobe AD in Cool Grey which are darn near impossible to get nowadays
The shoe is great performance wise and good looking but now… the way they have the exposed ribs look to them almost any color way would look amazing great video Chris as per usual
These look great. The grey and chrome combo is pretty cool
Nike needs to retro the Lebron X
Yes That's My Favorite Model
Tongue rubs on my shins in a bad way and hurts. I unlaced the top most eyelet and folded the tongue outwards and that kinda helped.
Just got these on Sheikh with a $20 coupon, this colorway is solid! Great review as always 👍🏾
Just copped yesterday at JD sports for $107 very sleek look 👍
Honestly I wear 11.5 for every nike I own. These were definitely the smallest shoes ivr had in a 11.5 and theyre my favorite shoe ive ever had. Buying the new version in 12s
Fire video as always
I like how you tweeked that answer chris 👌 and I would have to agree I would rather be Allen Iverson 💪💪
Hey, I like the abalone! Iget a lot of compliments :D
But they are a little heavier
Dude I just got these and they look sooo sick, I can’t believe he’s sh*tting on them in this video lol. They’re such a unique colorway and they have a psychedelic thing to them.
Are you making a performance review on this updated version?
I have blisters on my ankles from them, any advice or they just need to be worn more
These look solid, but I agree, the ones with the leather upper covers were a better shoe if priced the same. But seeing them at discount is always nice. I’d rather be a role player with multiple rings. Those guys could also rank in the cash and they tend to be great coaches or work in the NBA in other roles. I’m thinking along the lines of Steve Kerr
They’re on Nike now. They look nice. I’d rather be “The Guy” than being a role player. It’s like asking would u rather be Carmelo Anthony or Robert Horry.
Man the LeBron 8 V2 PS are one of my favorites of all time
What's the track playing in the background of the video? Beat is 🔥
What is the best upper material for outdoor light rain/moderate rain?
I live in Baltimore, Maryland (where the key bridge collapsed) and was super shocked when he mentioned the bridge like oh wait he is referring to here. Respect 💪🏾. Caught me off guard with you being on the west coast, but anyway love your channel. Been around since the Air Force 180s phoenix suns color way review !
Great review 👏
The thing is with the 21s. Unfortunately I had issues with the insoles, making it very tight with a dragon pearl color away and never had that problem with Lebron but I may give it a chance.
How are these for wide feet ?
Compared to AE1
Felt like I should comment because I've been a big supporter of yours throughout the many years you've been on youtube but I can't believe it has already been 11 years since the 10, which was the first Lebron that I got and ever since then I've really only liked the 10s, 20s and now these. The Lebron's I had were actually the Floridians and I remember when I first saw those leak, I remember there was a white colorway as well that didn't release. Let me know if you remember that!
Interesting tweaks on the 21s. Curious about the new colorways dropping on those bad boys.
Chris, do you prefer 20 or 21?
That's a dope 21 rendition!
When it comes to PS or Elite Brons the 9 is King wrapped in all kinds of carbon fiber 2012 Boston G6💪 dope vid Chris! 💯
I think you didnt notice it, but on the previous version of the 21s, they use like 4 flywires for the shoe laces compared to the new version they used none. So would it effect the containment?? maybe a little.
Nike should make a Lebron 21 High
I think this refresh came from people whining about how the upper looks bad after a few wears and after getting a pair I can see it. I rather be that guy who everyone says was good but no chip than the guy who has a chip but is just seen as in the right place at the right time. Mrs Wing actually said the name correctly btw
This grey one is definitely better than some of the other colorways
Great show period. Love it
Should I buy this or the Kd16 Slim Reaper?
They need to come out with a black and white pair, luv all of ur videos thanks
I love the silver Nike tick. I love the colour. I love that their light weight ❤❤❤
Do you recommend the LeBron 21s
Does this fit snug or tts? I want to pick up the Conchiolin colorway
I felt so restricted in the first round so absolutely feeling the idea of a lighter version. Probably not question of the day material, but are you into the A's moving to Sacremento?
This is reminiscent of GT Cut 3.
This color looks stronger and sharper than the acoya or purple coloring.
What the feeling on feet? Other than the weight .
that refresh is growing on me😍not bad at all
Is the box size different from the older colorways?
Another solid review. The chrome colorway Lebron wore when he dropped 40 on the Nets is crazy. I would rather be "that guy"! The legacy of being a stand out player greatly improves your earning potential even after your done playing.
Great review as always 🫡 still waiting for the next pop culture podcast and Chris thoughts on the X-Men 97 series
Podcast was canceled.
Hi Chris I would like to as your opinion about recent Nike Basketball shoes that the toe placement is more align toward centre.
do you think this design is reasonable?
Nike should have done what they did back in the day and updated the 21s as Elite. Basically playoff editions
Is it wide foot friendly now?
Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior improvements... What would that shoe be?
Will we EVER get a Nike Air Force V low retro? Especially in the Spurs colorway…
Good job. U pronounced Kenavious Coldwell Pope name perfectly. He was a role player on Lakers during COVID n won championship and is now on Denver and won championship last year as well.Hes a lot better then Luke Longley. Haha I'm 46 yrs old so I grew up watching the Bulls and am a huge Lakers fan. Keep up great work guys Question. if u could be any animal what would u be?
this specific colorway reminds me of Kobe 6 FTB, I hope nike makes Kobe inspired colorways of LeBrons
Am I the only one who hates Nike fly wire?? 916 in the house!! Loved the channel for awhile now and can always depend on you guys to point me in the right direction of dope local kicks shops.
