Still my favorite Lebron ever. The 15 may change that. This shoe has a legendary cushion setup. I don't know why Nike isn't putting this setup in other shoes. The drop in lunarlon with the full length zoom embedded is so comfortable. Keeps you lower to the ground too, which I like.
I love how you showed a clip of you missing the shot and didn't just edit it out. Anyone else would've just edited it out, but it shows that you are human... i hope you didn't take that the wrong way, I love your videos!
dude thanks for the great review.. i was waiting for this review before buying one.. thanks bro! i always watch your vids because you're honest. great job! keep it up! i'm from the Philippines. :)
Hey nightwing.... After watching your videos religiously for the past 2 months, some videoes repeatedly, i just bit the bullet and purchased the lebron 11. I like the reviews you do for any shoe really, and you helped me decide which shoe would work out best for me. So idk if youll get back to me, but i have to thank you so THANKS!!! I love my 11's for casual once in a great while and on-court. Like you said, these shoe are just beast!
All scores are available on the score cards listed on the performance reviews published on my site. If you need scores then just take a second out of our day and look at them.
I have these in this colorway..... I've noticed many similarities to the AJ2012... -Outsole/Shank design and application -Forefoot/Toe box shape -Removable cushioning and midsole (can put AJ2012 system in there it works) Did you notice?
I got paid today, copping these tomorrow, Was dying to see this, great review. Glad to hear it's such a great shoe. I'm in need of a new pair of basketball shoes! Thanks dude!
Great review as always Nightwing! Given that I am a GS size, 140 bucks for these is well worth it! Definitely gonna cop the XI, just not this colourway. Keep doing what your doing man! Your reviews are awesome & greatly appreciated!
I feel the Xs traction is better so if these were a 9 then those should have been a 9.5. Thats why I wish I could change the score but it is what it is. I wouldnt rate these anything below a 9 in traction bc they are a 9 IMO.
These shoes are amazing to ball in for a bigger bloke. I definitely recommend for anyone with some ankle problems or someone who needs that extra cushion.
Hey are these heavy at all? The last Lebrons i ever owned were the V and those were so damn heavy that balling in those felt like i ran a mile and then decided to play. I heard Lebrons got a lot better in that department and that they are pretty light what do you think about the weight? Do they feel clunky? I'm a post player but i always like slashing to the hoop so support and weight are really important for me.
Thank you so much! i will be getting a Nike ID pair for my senior year, your reviews are always helpful and i am so glad that these play like they do. Cant wait.
do you know how Lebron's shoe rotation will be like during the season? Since these have to be broken in, do people "break them in" for him or does he play in his PE's beforehand?
Everyone from the US complaining about the price haha welcome to what it feels like being a sneaker head in Australia. We would pay anywhere from 40 to 80 dollars over U.S retail AT our FOOTLOCKERS !! Anyway great review nightwing as always man !! Keep doing what you do best !!
Do you prefer these or the Jordan XX8? I'm trying to make a decision for a new pair of on court sneakers and I just don't know. I can't try on a pair of the XX8's for comparison either.
LeBron likes his shoes stiff. If he wanted to he could just take the midsole out and put it inside diff colorways so that part is at least broken in but I think he prefers a lot of cushion and stiffness so he will prob wear a new pair each game.
Does anyone know why Lebron still wearing the 10s in games so far this season? Wouldve assumed he'd be playing in the 11s, even just for marketing purposes (although they are both great shoes to ball in). Just curious
Alright looking for some new hoop shoes. I've been looking at the Bron 11s, HyperDunk 2013, HyperPosite, Soldier 7... I have a bit of a wide foot. And I'm a guard. Which should I buy?
IPlayCallOfDuty Kobe's are my favorite guard shoe of all time. Its the lightest shoe on the market right now with engineered mesh and a lunarlon insole.. If your a versatile player choose hyperdunks, if not id go for the kobe's or cp3s.
I still love both pairs of Lebron 11s I have. Great shoe. The 12 was much, much too narrow for my wide foot. The 13 is breaking in nicely ...but the 11s are it for me.
this might be a stupid question but im wondering if XDR will effect the traction or even performance aspect of the shoes? thank for replying nightwing.. really appreciate you taking your time to answer the questions
some differences in the shoes are that the m10s have better traction, and the zoom experience on the m10s are by far the best out there however the 11s have better ventilation but its not that noticeable overall i would say they perform fairly similar but in terms of price the m10s are hands down better
Question: I'd like to wear them as street shoes, just to walk around in a few times a week. The sole looks rather thin, so i was wandering how durable they'd be for casual street wear?
I have a pair and they are actually pretty light, and they are the most comfortable basketball shoes i have ever worn. if you are ok with spending 200 you should so get them!!!
looking at these, i am starting to see this year's elite version: carbon fiber shank plate, kevlar laces+flywires, larger ventilation holes and redesigned foams panels. And the retail price? hmmmm...
Hey nightwing, I just wanted to ask you a quick question. So I'm a quick player, I do a lot of iso-moves and such so I need to have great traction and stay light on my feet. I was planning on getting Kobe 8s but now that I'm seeing great reviews for LeBron 11s I'm hesitant to decide. Which one do you think I should get? I play on a slightly dusty court and money is irrelevant.
i know materials wise these are probably the most durable things out there, but how durable do you think the lunarlon foam will actually be? and will the lunarlon bottoming out matter if there's a full length zoom uni anyways?
Oh one more thing... what do you think of the shoe aesthetic wise? Do u see yourself wearing this casually or strictly performance? Sorry if youve already told us before i forgot...
I've been waiting for this video review! I got these release day and I personally love the shoe. I just wanted to see what you thought of these too! Great video!

great video bro. might cop these. keep doing your thing
I wish shipping wasn't so slow to Canada, I can't wait to get these on feet! really good review man!
& to think how much significance this shoe has now.
I love how you showed a clip of you missing the shot and didn't just edit it out. Anyone else would've just edited it out, but it shows that you are human... i hope you didn't take that the wrong way, I love your videos!
2019 Anyone?
No wait I ment 2020 anyone?
2021 for me!
@@myownwerstenmy 2021 here! Have been grabbing lebron's lately. Looking for the lebron IV like the Foamposite on those!
I have a lot of different LBJ models & colorways but I do not own a pair of 4s yet. I've been keeping my eye out for a good cop.
appreciate it! They get better with each wear. Makes me want to keep playing in them instead of moving onto the next review.
dude thanks for the great review.. i was waiting for this review before buying one.. thanks bro! i always watch your vids because you're honest. great job! keep it up!
i'm from the Philippines. :)
Still cool in 2023
2020 watching this review
Had to buy them again

I appreciate you taking your time for making these reviews for everyone. Keep up the good work and thank you.
dood these are some beast shoes great review ive watched most of your reviews and they're very helpful thx and keep doing these great reviews
Bought these 3 years ago and still playing in them today. Best hoop shoe of all time
Nikhil Mathur is it really that good? I'm using the hyperdunk 2017s rn and am disappointed and thinking about picking up a pair of these
Nikhil Mathur did you go true to size?
All scores are available on the score cards listed on the performance reviews published on my site. If you need scores then just take a second out of our day and look at them.
appreciate the support
Appreciate it. I plan on testing those for sure.
I have these in this colorway..... I've noticed many similarities to the AJ2012...
-Outsole/Shank design and application
-Forefoot/Toe box shape
-Removable cushioning and midsole (can put AJ2012 system in there it works)
Did you notice?
Great Reviews. Very detailed, very descriptive. Gives me a really good idea of how the shoe will perform.
Bought these based on ur review and man, they didnt dissapoint. I trust ur reviews, i like ur style. Keep up the good work. Cheers from greece.
Always straight to the point and always a great vid! Great job as always Nightwing!
great review as always, just one question. if you had to pick.. would you go with XDR or no? thanks nightwing
Agreed 100%. The pattern was good as well.
Also, the paneling placement as well, the 2012 was brogue leather panels and this is posite panels
I got paid today, copping these tomorrow, Was dying to see this, great review. Glad to hear it's such a great shoe. I'm in need of a new pair of basketball shoes! Thanks dude!
Im around that area often but I havent been to that park in a while.
Great job as always Nightwing. Off topic question, do you still plan to do a performance test video of the Nike Air Max Stutter Step?
No, weight is listed on their score card on my site.
appreciate it, glad you enjoy the CP3s!
Def 28 se for guards... They're light, have a ton of padding around ankle and in general, awesome traction, good vents
such a cool pan shot IMO. Foamer is a creative beast.
Great review as always Nightwing! Given that I am a GS size, 140 bucks for these is well worth it! Definitely gonna cop the XI, just not this colourway. Keep doing what your doing man! Your reviews are awesome & greatly appreciated!
Im def on the lookout for another pair in a diff colorway.
Got these last night,love them! Wasn't sold with them in vids and pictures but in person they look nice!
I feel the Xs traction is better so if these were a 9 then those should have been a 9.5. Thats why I wish I could change the score but it is what it is. I wouldnt rate these anything below a 9 in traction bc they are a 9 IMO.
These shoes are amazing to ball in for a bigger bloke. I definitely recommend for anyone with some ankle problems or someone who needs that extra cushion.
Once Im done then the review will be up. Thanks!
Whats better for outdoor use? The one with traction that will last long? Lebron11, cp3 7 or superfly 2??
do you prefer this cushion setup more or the lebron x's cushion setup?
Because of this review i will be getting these as soon as the gamma blues come out. thanks nightwing!
Those have the same materials as the pair I reviewed previously. Only difference is the color.
Maybe put the kobe VII or VIII insole in these lebrons, to make it less cushioned and more guard oriented?
Hey are these heavy at all? The last Lebrons i ever owned were the V and those were so damn heavy that balling in those felt like i ran a mile and then decided to play. I heard Lebrons got a lot better in that department and that they are pretty light what do you think about the weight? Do they feel clunky? I'm a post player but i always like slashing to the hoop so support and weight are really important for me.
I was wondering how the traction would be outdoors.will it last long?
Thank you so much! i will be getting a Nike ID pair for my senior year, your reviews are always helpful and i am so glad that these play like they do. Cant wait.
which are better? lebron x or lebron 11 or jordan 28?Im thinking about purchasing one of the three
Really digging the new intro and outro graphics.
do you know how Lebron's shoe rotation will be like during the season? Since these have to be broken in, do people "break them in" for him or does he play in his PE's beforehand?
Everyone from the US complaining about the price haha welcome to what it feels like being a sneaker head in Australia. We would pay anywhere from 40 to 80 dollars over U.S retail AT our FOOTLOCKERS !! Anyway great review nightwing as always man !! Keep doing what you do best !!
I've been waiting so long for this, now im deffintly gonna buy them
No mean to rush you, but when do you think you will upload the nike air max stutter step? and great job
Do you prefer these or the Jordan XX8? I'm trying to make a decision for a new pair of on court sneakers and I just don't know. I can't try on a pair of the XX8's for comparison either.
You can wear whatever youd like casually. Dont listen to what others think, just do you.
I suggest you get the hyperrevs I just got a pair and they fit like a sock. They have great traction and they are light
Hey nightwing are those LeBron 11 feel heavy or light?
LeBron likes his shoes stiff. If he wanted to he could just take the midsole out and put it inside diff colorways so that part is at least broken in but I think he prefers a lot of cushion and stiffness so he will prob wear a new pair each game.
Does anyone know why Lebron still wearing the 10s in games so far this season? Wouldve assumed he'd be playing in the 11s, even just for marketing purposes (although they are both great shoes to ball in). Just curious
Alright looking for some new hoop shoes. I've been looking at the Bron 11s, HyperDunk 2013, HyperPosite, Soldier 7... I have a bit of a wide foot. And I'm a guard. Which should I buy?
would like to know this too
hyperdunks, cp3 vii, kobe 8s if your a guard.
Cp3 Vii or Hyperdunk 2013. CP3's are very light helping a point guards movement.
IPlayCallOfDuty Kobe's are my favorite guard shoe of all time. Its the lightest shoe on the market right now with engineered mesh and a lunarlon insole.. If your a versatile player choose hyperdunks, if not id go for the kobe's or cp3s.
ALTxKI IPlayCallOfDuty the low tops dont scare yall even a liitle bit?
how many games have you played in this shoe?
Do you know if they'll make a low cut version?
waited so long for this haha
recently picked up the 2013 hyperdunks from watching your vids too!
I still love both pairs of Lebron 11s I have. Great shoe. The 12 was much, much too narrow for my wide foot. The 13 is breaking in nicely ...but the 11s are it for me.
Awesome!! i been waiting for this for a long time. Thanks Bro! i had to get 2 pairs these were just so great in my opinion
thanks, Chris. Your channel is the best on youtube
The laces are notoriously hard to keep tied, what would you remedy that with?
A double knot
could look into lace locks.
You would have to buy them.
+Christopher Chao My south Beach colorways always come loose but the all orange colorway is fine
+MrUnstoppable275 yea same I got south beach ones the lace they do not work
Thanks NightWing! I really do appriciate the reviews! Will you also be doinf one on the Reebok Q96?
Should you wear these for an outdoor court
how do these fit compared to the lebron 10 ? should i buy the same size ?
Love all the vids bro best reviews out there!
after you answer this question, whats better... a pink crayon or a red crayon?
Which shoe do you prefer for a straight basketball shoe the LeBron XI or the Hyperdunks 2013?
this might be a stupid question but im wondering if XDR will effect the traction or even performance aspect of the shoes? thank for replying nightwing.. really appreciate you taking your time to answer the questions
What do you think the price will be if these hit Nike outlets?
Whats better melo m10 or the lebron 11
same question. :)
lebron 11
both good it just depends on how much you want to pay
some differences in the shoes are that the m10s have better traction, and the zoom experience on the m10s are by far the best out there however the 11s have better ventilation but its not that noticeable overall i would say they perform fairly similar but in terms of price the m10s are hands down better
I would say lebron 11s are better, if you're gonna get the melos just get an XX8 se
Big fan of your videos and website (: salute man
Question: I'd like to wear them as street shoes, just to walk around in a few times a week. The sole looks rather thin, so i was wandering how durable they'd be for casual street wear?
Keep up the good work bro, we always look forward to your input on sneakers.
Thanks man! I heard a lot good reviews too from CP3 7's.
is the rubber on the sole really soft? and will they last outdoors?
Which would you say is better? CP3.7's or these?
Great honest review, man ya did sneaker heads proud.
been waiting for this! its finally here!
I just realized, some of the new subscribers wont know you as nightwing. Mind blown.
no, get the XDR versions if you want to hoop outdoors
can you use these outdoors (will they burnfast) ?
is it good for outdoor use?
thanks for the reply, but whats the difference between XDR and not.. how does that effect the Performance on a pair of shoes?
How are these Lebron 11 compare to the XX8s performance wise?
thanks for watching it
How long is the break in time? Since it feels like forever
Night wing does the traction on the lebron 11 get better with time ? Nice is u can get back to me !
i love your reviews. keep going strong man!
i wear a size 10.5, what size should i go with? up or down?
I have a pair and they are actually pretty light, and they are the most comfortable basketball shoes i have ever worn. if you are ok with spending 200 you should so get them!!!
looking at these, i am starting to see this year's elite version: carbon fiber shank plate, kevlar laces+flywires, larger ventilation holes and redesigned foams panels. And the retail price? hmmmm...
Was there any discomfort around the toe box? Toes rubbing against the shoe a lot? This is coming from a hooper with flat feet.
stay true to size? or should you go up half a size or so
Hey nightwing, I just wanted to ask you a quick question. So I'm a quick player, I do a lot of iso-moves and such so I need to have great traction and stay light on my feet. I was planning on getting Kobe 8s but now that I'm seeing great reviews for LeBron 11s I'm hesitant to decide. Which one do you think I should get? I play on a slightly dusty court and money is irrelevant.
The MEGATRON LeBron shoes.
I want a pair badly.
i know materials wise these are probably the most durable things out there, but how durable do you think the lunarlon foam will actually be? and will the lunarlon bottoming out matter if there's a full length zoom uni anyways?
Oh one more thing... what do you think of the shoe aesthetic wise? Do u see yourself wearing this casually or strictly performance? Sorry if youve already told us before i forgot...
I've been waiting for this video review! I got these release day and I personally love the shoe. I just wanted to see what you thought of these too! Great video!
