Hey Everyone, this video (along with our previous two uploads this week) was recorded prior to the passing of Kobe Bryant. Chris has yet to feel comfortable enough to get on camera since Kobe's passing, but he hopes to see you guys again soon. We appreciate everyone's patience and hope you all are having a great day.
WearTesters - Just wanted to drop a separate line here to Chris, you take as much time as you need bro, there’s no time frame and equally there’s nothing you have to do to reflect on Kobe’s passing, the love and appreciation, also the emotional impact is obviously there, we all handle grief, and the reflection on how precious our family is differently, you do you #MambaFace
WearTesters I’m with you bro, 4 days later and I’m still heartbroken, Kobe inspired me so much and gave my brother and I some of the best moments of our childhood, mamba forever brother
@Bryson Thompson I since bought another one and they both hit well outdoors. But here’s my question to you.. if you like that snug sock feeling, PG4 is good for you, if you want a little more room, but nice cushion? PG5…. Amazing… just got another pair of those as well. I got my eye on the KD14
@9:47. I’m glad he said this and I felt like it was specifically for my husband. The shoes the consumers buy are for consumers and they don’t represent the same shoe player wears during games. THANK YOU!!!!
I’ve got to give it to Chris he’s managed to literally say the same thing for the last 3 years and I still watch every video! His delivery is just one million times refined NOW! I see why!!
I had to get a 12 in these and I normally wear a 10 1/2 to 11 in almost all Nikes. They are plenty wide just short. Once you get the right size they feel fantastic.
I agreed with the PE stuff, NBA guys are huge, they got size 15 or something, and need tons of support like the PE'a got their full carbon fiber plate and more zoom. I don't understand why people keep complaining about they got different pair from their fav player.
Always hyped when he opens with "these bad boys"...unfortunately I was expecting more from these since I love the PG line Considering Mrs Wing played in Air Max 90s, does that mean she plays like Sefolosha?
Your criticism of the foot support is on point cause PG stopped wearing them on court a couple of weeks in the NBA bubble restart. PG is now rocking his older models.
Solid review as always. I wish they weren’t so hard to get on as it takes some wiggling to get your socks adjusted. Definitely comfortable once on though!
Great video again. I love my PG1, PG2, PG2.5. I have two pair of PG3 I haven’t broken in yet apparently. This 4 looks really unstable for me .. also they don’t make half sizes above a 16 so I may have to sit this one out unfortunately. Thanks for the great info as usual.
glad you mentioned the slappiness of it....personally was thinking that the setup technically reminds me of a modern day Air Force 1....but instead of a full length air unit in a rubber cup sole, it’s a full length air strobe unit with a squarish foam midsole. 🤷🏽♂️ Also.....1 point is 1 point @thisismrswing ...regardless of if you cheated or not. If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying. 😂
I also didn't understand the change in cushion especially when they finally got the zoom/foam combo just right, oh well. Take your time on recording new videos cause Kobe's passing hit us all hard
I returned that’s color way. I went up a 1/2 but they were yet too tight. I’m gonna try the orange & green color way & go up a whole size larger & see if the fit is better. Thx for your content. 👌🏿
I went up a full sz up (14) and my toes feel like they trying to escape.... I’ve let multiple people try them on who themselves wear a sz13 and they could barely fit them. The ones who wear a sz14 couldn’t even get their foot in the shoe... I got skinny/narrow feet so it’s easy for me to get in,but damn they fit snug
Wow what a review solid 💙 I just wanted to ask since I really wanted to buy that pair I wanted to know what size to get because I am buying them online so I usually wear 44 EU what size should I get and to go to a place to try the sizes is really far sooo if can help me with sth like that would really appreciate it. Thanks for all those vids guys 💙
I got this shoe and I can say that the zipper always unzipped everytime I run. That's why I always zip it again but overall it was very comfortable and very good in an outdoor court but th translucent part of the outsole is kinda yellowish already because of the dust. Who's PG4 user here automatically unzipped the shoe when playing give me reviews!
after owning these for about three weeks, my left shoe has water in the air strobel. it's a faulty unit, but that really says something about Nike's quality control.
Yeah I don't like how they went with seemingly a completely different design language from the 1st 3. Was also hoping for a 3.5 with a forefoot strap, I liked that and wish they kept it going. I'm still playing the PG 2s and love em
Saw these on sale for $45 on finishline so had to watch your performance review before committing. I know you said they weren't worth $110 but I'm hoping it's a decent hooping shoe at more than half the price!
Thanks for this review and I want to try these out. I have the Kobe 5 Protro's and they are great. Question: Sometimes I see you talking about insoles. I am looking for two sets of insoles to put into the Kobe AD NXT non lace shoes. I bought a couple three years ago and think a full zoom air like insole would make it ride nice.
It looks like they took a step back with those sucks cuz the pg2.5 I think the one with the strap on the forefoot is the best shoe for me at work where I pull or push a cart around bout 5 to 7 miles a day loading and unloading it with boxes that are bout 25 to 45 pounds each handle bout 1100 to 1600 boxes a day but that shoe makes it a little easier I was hoping they was gonna do a 3.5 just by putting it strap on the pg3 but I'll still check those out don't think they'll be the only shoes I work in it's sounds like they put your feet at a higher level in the shoes and Im not mush on that when doing a lot of cutting and pushing off of one foot fills like they roll out from feet when the foot bed is higher but I'm a fan of the pg's it's been my go to for work now for bout 2yrs do they still have that bubble fill in the forefoot like all the other pg's
I definitely wish you sat more in the midsole.. had an outrigger or something. I definitely rolled over last night and credit these somewhat to my ankle injury. The support just wasn’t there for me. I wanna love them but it’s tough lol.
for whatever reason, the dudes who review basketball shoes HATED this shoe and described them as produced by a brand which specifically makes s****y shoes for elderly people, they hated every part about the shoe.
Guys, is PG4 better than the Lebron Soldier 13? Coz I always play on really bad courts. I'm wondering if which one will perform better and last longer? Plz recommend if you have other shoes in mind that perform better and last longer than these bad boys
Interesting. How different are the shoes for the public and the shoes for the exact player? Do you have a video explanation about this? Did I miss the video? I always thought that they don't differ much in terms of materials other than the customized insoles they put into the shoes.
Funny that people think Beal and Booker got snubbed for ASG. Their team has losing decor although not far from the 8th seed. Trae was voted in by the fans is the only difference. Ja Morant I think is the closest to a snub since his team is doing better than Dame's Blazers. But the Suns are underperforming considering the young talent they have.
A lot of people were saying how bad they looked.....and I agreed. Your reviews are pretty much the final frontier on whether shoes are worth the purchase or not.
Do you recommend going a full size above your normal size or just a half size up? I recently purchased those and ordered a size 10 instead of my usual 9.5 US. They arrived yesterday, and I tried them but they seem a bit tight. Do they get looser over time? It's to play ball and I don't like when they are too tight, I have some shoes that are US 10, but most of them are 9.5 US it depends on the brands. I can still give them back because I ordered them through Nike's site
Sir Chris, is it still playable even if I go with my normal size? I have a narrow foot (I think) and I like a snug fit but not to a point that my toes would hurt when I stop fast. Someone's selling the oreo color way, not sure if I'll pull the trigger. Thank you!!
late, but definitely at least a lot more durable than the pg 2s. the circles are much thicker in width, and the rubber itself isnt as soft and pliable as they were in the pg 2s not quite outdoor levels of durability tho, especially if you play often
The air bubble in my shoe leaked or whatever and it risen up into an area of my foot that was really uncomfortable i popped it and I feel like it might be regretting seeing as i can feel the bubble lose all its and was wondering if there still playable because they are my favorite shoes
Tried them on in store half a size up from my regular Nike size and it fit perfect. Haven’t hooped with them on the court but I know these are going to be beastly performers by the way they fit and feel
Jordan Ibezim I didn’t end up copping. Right now I’m still debating if I should get then Kyrie 6 or PG 4. I’m leaning more towards they Kyrie 6’s because they’re more durable and will last me longer
Jordan Ibezim I literally just copped the Kyrie 6’s and exchanged them within a couple hours for the PG’s. I’ve owned and enjoyed the Kyrie 3, 4 but my body would hurt too much after playing in them due to the lack of cushioning. Wasn’t down for that type of experience again. I’ll give these bad boys a test run tomorrow and will give you an update
I do agree. I owned k5’s and my body always hurt when I'm done playing. I’m 6’3 and 175lb and I love the idea of the PG4’s but idk if I should cop them. I've sprained my ankles a couple of times in the Kyrie 5’s and I'm looking to get these. So I do hope to hear from you about the support.
Hey man, great vid! I just got some Jordan Mars 270 - do you know if these are any good to play basketball in? Thought I’d get a pair on offer for the court and off the court once after a season. What do you think? Thanks!

WearTesters Take all the time you need! We know how much Kobe meant to you and the rest of the sneaker conmunity
Before the logo there was no mention of “bad boys” or “these guys “ - this is the most suspenseful review yet
Honestly, I was listening out for it and had to settle for his tone of voice which still gave me nothing💀
He said bad boys
Matthew Feldman 0:20
solid, SOLID review!
LeBeautiful plsssss stop following me😭😭😭
Why r u so beautiful 😍
I like how he described the difference between zoom and air but do you think it has anything to do with yo jumping,running, or lateral moving ?
yoo
I’ve seen u in the comments in like five billion videos
Men, there's no other reviewer as nightwing. He's always straight to the point
PG 4 cushion
Full Length Air Strobel: Like stepping on a pillow.
Full Length Air Strobel: Like stepping on a spring loaded mattress.
Lmao it looks like Chris isn’t wearing shorts and it got NSFW real quick.
They going for 60 now on finish line. Picked it up as an alternate pair to my witness 4.. this vid help me pull the trigger on it
@Bryson Thompson I since bought another one and they both hit well outdoors. But here’s my question to you.. if you like that snug sock feeling, PG4 is good for you, if you want a little more room, but nice cushion? PG5…. Amazing… just got another pair of those as well. I got my eye on the KD14
5:16 someone who understand finaly
@9:47. I’m glad he said this and I felt like it was specifically for my husband. The shoes the consumers buy are for consumers and they don’t represent the same shoe player wears during games. THANK YOU!!!!
That is very true the shoes that consumers where are made nothing like the NBA players shoes
I feel you man! I'm still going through it myself. Stay strong bro.
5 months later... Nike - "Lets put a strap on it!!!"
PG4.5
I am actually waiting for 4.5, i really don't like the design tho. Looks like running shoes for women. 😂
They didn't have a 3.5
It’s been 5 months, no strap
Ngl that sounds kinda hard
I’ve got to give it to Chris he’s managed to literally say the same thing for the last 3 years and I still watch every video! His delivery is just one million times refined NOW! I see why!!
I had to get a 12 in these and I normally wear a 10 1/2 to 11 in almost all Nikes. They are plenty wide just short. Once you get the right size they feel fantastic.
I agreed with the PE stuff, NBA guys are huge, they got size 15 or something, and need tons of support like the PE'a got their full carbon fiber plate and more zoom. I don't understand why people keep complaining about they got different pair from their fav player.
I've been waiting for this!!
Your vids literally never get boring🙏
Thank you
I saw this video awhile ago and was sold. Finally got my first pair of PG4s today thanks to you. Great review that is so on point. 😁👍
I’m boutta get a pair as well, just waiting for the Gatorade gx or asw colorway to restock
@baneintherain Hi bro can you tell me about the sizing you just bought? And just asking im US9 Should i go US9.5? Thanks in advanced 👌
@@denszurc3015 yeah, half a size up for sure. Hope that helps. It's a comfortable shoe.
Always hyped when he opens with "these bad boys"...unfortunately I was expecting more from these since I love the PG line
Considering Mrs Wing played in Air Max 90s, does that mean she plays like Sefolosha?
Finally!!!! I’ve been waiting for this one lol. Great review. Keep it up!
I’m back a year later after buying these and this review was on the money.
After watching this I went and got the PG4 Christmas ones . Pumped 🔥🔥
Another great review by the GOAT, keep up the good work Sir!
Your criticism of the foot support is on point cause PG stopped wearing them on court a couple of weeks in the NBA bubble restart. PG is now rocking his older models.
Thanks Chris for good detail review. Im thinking of getting these.
are these good for outdoor use
Solid review as always. I wish they weren’t so hard to get on as it takes some wiggling to get your socks adjusted. Definitely comfortable once on though!
I picked these up yesterday I hope they are good for next season
how were they? looking to buy these!
Great video again. I love my PG1, PG2, PG2.5. I have two pair of PG3 I haven’t broken in yet apparently. This 4 looks really unstable for me .. also they don’t make half sizes above a 16 so I may have to sit this one out unfortunately. Thanks for the great info as usual.
Pg 4s are to date one of the most comfiest shoes I’ve worn
Only shoe review channel I trust. Been 4 years now
We appreciate it
Watched this video and went to the link and purchased a custom pair of these baby’s, great video!!
Slightly wide footer here, I went .5 size up.
loveeee the shoes had to go 1 full size bigger and it was really really comfortable really gonna enjoy using these this aau season
I also had to go a size bigger
Do you have a wide or flat foot? Bc I’m getting a pair and I have skinny foot and I’m size 11. Should I go up a size or stay 11??
I like the review, love your contents man! This is the first time I saw your wife, and its suprising, good to get things new
I went up a full size ... these are a 10 for me ... best PG ever made
they looks like it’s easy to roll your ankle in, are they? im choosing between the zoom freak 1 and this.
Are you okay? You sound like you're recovering from being sick!! Take care brother and thanks for this review
Was thinking of getting just for casual wear as the full air under insole sound super comfy.
glad you mentioned the slappiness of it....personally was thinking that the setup technically reminds me of a modern day Air Force 1....but instead of a full length air unit in a rubber cup sole, it’s a full length air strobe unit with a squarish foam midsole. 🤷🏽♂️ Also.....1 point is 1 point @thisismrswing ...regardless of if you cheated or not. If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying. 😂
Crazy good reviews
I tried a pair on and i would say for hooping i would go a half size up. but for just for casual wear im going a full size up.
Those tights and socks look so good with that colour way 🔥
BADBOYS!!!! YOU REALLY HAD US IN THE FIRST HALF NOT GONNA LIE 😭😭😭
POV: you have team shoes and there the pg 4 and you came to see if there good
That swish in the end was badass!
Good to see that these perform well. 👌🏽
Curious if you will review the cny xiii’s 🤔
I also didn't understand the change in cushion especially when they finally got the zoom/foam combo just right, oh well. Take your time on recording new videos cause Kobe's passing hit us all hard
I returned that’s color way. I went up a 1/2 but they were yet too tight. I’m gonna try the orange & green color way & go up a whole size larger & see if the fit is better. Thx for your content. 👌🏿
FredERoe TEXAS I went up a whole sz and their still snug/tight🤷🏾♂️
I went up a full sz up (14) and my toes feel like they trying to escape.... I’ve let multiple people try them on who themselves wear a sz13 and they could barely fit them. The ones who wear a sz14 couldn’t even get their foot in the shoe... I got skinny/narrow feet so it’s easy for me to get in,but damn they fit snug
I actually went size and a half up man. Tried 1 up and it was a battle walking in them. But i like them and have no problems while playing
Big truth at the end, preach!
I wish most the audience stayed till the end. Fact!!
I hope he talk about it more ofteb
I went up a full size they feel so good
Legendary vids 💯
Wow what a review solid 💙
I just wanted to ask since I really wanted to buy that pair I wanted to know what size to get because I am buying them online so I usually wear 44 EU what size should I get and to go to a place to try the sizes is really far sooo if can help me with sth like that would really appreciate it.

Who's PG4 user here automatically unzipped the shoe when playing give me reviews!
Pro tip: pull one shoe lace through the zipper hoop so that the zipper stays up the whole time.
after owning these for about three weeks, my left shoe has water in the air strobel. it's a faulty unit, but that really says something about Nike's quality control.
That's tough. How's the support though?
I noticed that perfectly broken in Evolution ball... chef's kiss
He has 100 money on these. Super comfortable and soft inside. Def go a half size up. I'm a 11.5 and 12 was comfy and close. They dont offer 12.5
Great info
They are super tight and hard to put on, I even went .5 a size up and still had problems
I went basically true to size I think my true size is 13 and it fits good
DISCLAIMER! I wear a 9.5 in Van's and had to order a 11.5 in PG4s
Vans are just built different from a normal shoe
Hope we get GP inspired colorways on this model at some point.
Yeah I don't like how they went with seemingly a completely different design language from the 1st 3. Was also hoping for a 3.5 with a forefoot strap, I liked that and wish they kept it going. I'm still playing the PG 2s and love em

Just copped them today with 25% off😍
To whom it may concern this will be my first pair. Are they true to size I wear a size 12 should I go to 12.5 or for true to size size 12 thank you
It looks like they took a step back with those sucks cuz the pg2.5 I think the one with the strap on the forefoot is the best shoe for me at work where I pull or push a cart around bout 5 to 7 miles a day loading and unloading it with boxes that are bout 25 to 45 pounds each handle bout 1100 to 1600 boxes a day but that shoe makes it a little easier I was hoping they was gonna do a 3.5 just by putting it strap on the pg3 but I'll still check those out don't think they'll be the only shoes I work in it's sounds like they put your feet at a higher level in the shoes and Im not mush on that when doing a lot of cutting and pushing off of one foot fills like they roll out from feet when the foot bed is higher but I'm a fan of the pg's it's been my go to for work now for bout 2yrs do they still have that bubble fill in the forefoot like all the other pg's
I love the lace last loop is out of the shroud. So you can zip it while still adjust the tightness. Nice work nike

What shoes do you think is the best to ball in?
Pg4 or the kd12?
Guys, is PG4 better than the Lebron Soldier 13? Coz I always play on really bad courts. I'm wondering if which one will perform better and last longer? Plz recommend if you have other shoes in mind that perform better and last longer than these bad boys
Go up a full size , im a size 9 and went up to a 10 and feels nice
Interesting. How different are the shoes for the public and the shoes for the exact player? Do you have a video explanation about this? Did I miss the video?
I always thought that they don't differ much in terms of materials other than the customized insoles they put into the shoes.
I’ve played at the place in Folsom for a tournament one of the best floor ive ever played on.
between Dame 5 and PG4, which one would you recommend?? Really need some opinions cause i'll be getting one of those this weekend
Giannis MVP DPOY
Cheers
Nah
Bron mvp. Ben Simmons sleeper dpoy.
If you maybe can do a performance review of a jumpman diamond low. Luka Doncic keeps on wearing em wonder if they perform well. Thanks!
People have to understand that PE is PE, they are just different and we consumer will never able to have the same experience as the GR.
Funny that people think Beal and Booker got snubbed for ASG. Their team has losing decor although not far from the 8th seed. Trae was voted in by the fans is the only difference. Ja Morant I think is the closest to a snub since his team is doing better than Dame's Blazers. But the Suns are underperforming considering the young talent they have.
A lot of people were saying how bad they looked.....and I agreed. Your reviews are pretty much the final frontier on whether shoes are worth the purchase or not.
When do you go to lifetime? I live in the area and would love to meet up!
Normally we are there Thursday’s.
I wonder how this shoe would look without the shroud? Might be an SE in the future
What are the chances of this doing a "ZION" 😂
Your profile pic though lol
@@sergiohuerta8446 pretty lit 🔥 aye?
Lol yeah 😎
Do you recommend going a full size above your normal size or just a half size up? I recently purchased those and ordered a size 10 instead of my usual 9.5 US.

How do you get the purple Gatorade color scheme I only see the other one?
Why Not Zer0.3 coming next?? Ive been really liking that pair so waiting for your video lol. No rush though, hope all is well
Sir Chris, is it still playable even if I go with my normal size? I have a narrow foot (I think) and I like a snug fit but not to a point that my toes would hurt when I stop fast. Someone's selling the oreo color way, not sure if I'll pull the trigger. Thank you!!
How about the durability of the traction??
late, but definitely at least a lot more durable than the pg 2s. the circles are much thicker in width, and the rubber itself isnt as soft and pliable as they were in the pg 2s
not quite outdoor levels of durability tho, especially if you play often
Noticing some odd distortion in voice audio occasionally, is it because of the gym?
So quick question. I got a 13.5 in the pg 1 and those were extremely tight. Should I try getting these 4’s in a size 14?
These or the harden 4?
I like good traction, if they could like longer it would be awesome
I like to be low to the ground
But I like cushion as well
PLEASE DONT GET HARDEN 4 I got them and the traction is the worst I’ve ever had in a shoe. You can’t go anywhere without sliding. They’re awful
@@mgk4152 yea bro harden vol 4 suck... traction is shit, they are heavy asf and that rubber band is too tight
I wore them and the traction is good but when you run and jump it’s like stepping on cement bc the stroble is too thin.
Love ur shirt brutha
These feel like the original HYPER REV but with more support and way better grip. Go up 1 full size fa sho.
The air bubble in my shoe leaked or whatever and it risen up into an area of my foot that was really uncomfortable i popped it and I feel like it might be regretting seeing as i can feel the bubble lose all its and was wondering if there still playable because they are my favorite shoes
Tried them on in store half a size up from my regular Nike size and it fit perfect. Haven’t hooped with them on the court but I know these are going to be beastly performers by the way they fit and feel
Andy Tran how have they been for you?
Jordan Ibezim I didn’t end up
copping. Right now I’m still debating if I should get then Kyrie 6 or PG 4. I’m leaning more towards they Kyrie 6’s because they’re more durable and will last me longer
Kyrie 6’s see dope though they get heavy when you get tired. But they're great.
Jordan Ibezim I literally just copped the Kyrie 6’s and exchanged them within a couple hours for the PG’s. I’ve owned and enjoyed the Kyrie 3, 4 but my body would hurt too much after playing in them due to the lack of cushioning. Wasn’t down for that type of experience again. I’ll give these bad boys a test run tomorrow and will give you an update
I do agree. I owned k5’s and my body always hurt when I'm done playing. I’m 6’3 and 175lb and I love the idea of the PG4’s but idk if I should cop them. I've sprained my ankles a couple of times in the Kyrie 5’s and I'm looking to get these. So I do hope to hear from you about the support.
Hi Chris what do you prefer, air or zoom?
I found pgs 4 and fly traps 2 both for 50 and I want them for outdoor trash courts I don’t know which to get
Hey man, great vid! I just got some Jordan Mars 270 - do you know if these are any good to play basketball in? Thought I’d get a pair on offer for the court and off the court once after a season. What do you think? Thanks!
I think Jordan mars 270 is for casual not for play
