Hey Chris When I wakeup in the morning I always take a huge poop. During that time period I watch your vids to help me get thru rough times. Thank you for keeping up with great content while I’m on the toilet
Your videos have been keeping up all quarantine and semester. Thank so much for the constant flow of content, I know its a ton of work for you and Mrs. Wing!
Hey Guys! It's video 11 of our 12 Days of Christmas in our WT Discord Community. If you haven't joined yet, TREAT YO SELF! weartesters.com/join/ Also, let us know your thoughts on the LeBron 18. Are you loving them on court? Thanks for watching!
That tongue has no padding at all, so once you tighten up the shoe laces, the top of your foot hurts like crazy due to the laces digging into it without any resistance from the tongue. I feel like this problem is just as bad as the lateral stability issues.
Started watching your vids freshman year at University back in 2015/2016! Now I’m taking a break from studying for what might possibly be my last finals before I graduate! Thanks for giving me advice on what performance shoe to wear at the gym to shoot hoops in whenever I needed to de-stress and for what to wear to class during those years! Big thanks from a Sac Native! ☄️💯✨
Was really excited about getting a low top Bron with all the perks of his usual hi’s. I am worried about the support issue you talked about with the outrigger or having one, but I think it just depends on your foot shape. Appreciate this review.
Man the intro music sounds great on my car stereo via Apply CarPlay. Loving the performance reviews as always👊🏼 when indoor gyms open up...I’ll p/u the LBJ 18s plus deeply discounted lol
Had to come back to this to give props to Chris and his crystal ball. Made note during the review about the instability of the multiple cushioning systems and now looks like LeBron might be taking issue with it since twisting his ankle. I might be wrong, but I haven’t seen him strap these up since...
I just got my pair in and must say I’ve missed cushion, ive mainly been ballin in kyries and and pgs for the last 4 years. I went a half size down and I haven’t had a shoe that fit this good in awhile. Im glad that I didn’t have the same fit issues as you I’d recommend this shoe to my fellow big men
My friend and I had different LB18 colorway and we both rolled our ankles on separate occasions while planting our feet. The laces need to be tightened up as soon as it feels loose.
I’ve studied your moves from your performance reviews. When retreating from the goal you’ll feint forward with a jab step and a crossover, dribble between the legs (from the back), half spin forward, step back, wetness.
Just want to acknowledge and get back on how accurate your review always is, even Lebron wears or switches on the Ambassador 13's due to the instability lately. Noticed that he tweaked his ankles numerous times in the 18's. Maybe we'll get another version of this shoe with the refined outrigger.
Used this shoe again after a long time and then i remembered why i stopped playing in them. that lateral support damn. you will always think twice when you do crossovers 😂
Great video as always Chris dam I wish I didn't live on the East coast because I would love to play Ball with you..you & Miss Wing keep grinding you guys are awesome...My favorite sneaker channel
Anyone else watch these performance reviews knowing damn well the only “performance” any of your shoes (pre Covid mind you) get is walking around campus 💀
@@theheebs100 lol ikr my lebron 9 elite Miami Vice or South Beach was heavy af but when i use it 5-7 times i can now play or use it comfortably (Sorry for bad english)
I returned my pair - thought the lateral issues were “just me” since I’m a widefooter... so disappointed cuz I so wanted to like these, but the narrow footbed was a deal breaker for me
lebron 17: no bad boys lebron 18: bad boys as an owner of the 17s im now excited to get some lebron18. hopefully on sale. I aint rushing i got my 17s on sale as well, courts still closed in my area so no need to rush and just wait for a sweet markdown.
I love this review. Might see if I could cop one even if it's quarantine and before the note saying that they play by 1's, I was like "CHRIS JUST STEP BACK A BIT IT'S RIGHT THERE" lol
Banger! I tried the shoe on in foot Locker like 3 of the color ways and The shoe is pretty Good But what u said The Shin part is very anoying and it hurts thats the reason i didnt buy it
I recently just got these shoes I agree it does feel like your ankle is more prone to rolling but I tried wearing them again and I tie the shoelace behind the fat ass tongue and the shoes performed way better
After hearing a few complaints about the tongue & ankle rolling i’m iffy on buying a pair but if i do it’s for casual wear only & mainly cause i’m a huge fan of comfort i gotta try out the airmax on those
The shoes are cool, but man.....can we talk about that sweater?!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I agree....Jodi, you stole that trophy and spanked the competition like it owed you money!! I swear there were shoulder pads until you showed that it didn’t. 😂🤦🏽♂️
It's shame how the forefoot lateral containment is so terrible. I've tried the Lebron 16s and love it for outdoor play.. until I rolled my ankle 3 times and then I sweared off this line forever. I did appreciate the max cushioning, and hard rubber outsoles, which makes it a quality outdoor value.
I'm a Wide Foot 13, had to get 14 in these since they don't have 13.5. Overall, much better than the 17 but the 16 was perfect for wide feet with the 15s coming in a close 2nd
PLEASE do a review on the Air Jordan XX3 Titan X releasing Dec 18th....The XX3 are probably the most comfortable basketball shoe I've worn especially me being 6'4 275
how hard is it for companies to add an outrigger to their performance basketball shoes especially since lateral movement is so vital? like it should be a required feature
A highlight to a pretty meh Monday, always appreciate the time it takes for these reviews to come out. Switched my focus for more outdoor friendly shoes to ball in, and with comfort in mind, these and the UA Embiid 1 are on the top of my list
I'm torn in between buying the 18s or the 16s. The only thing bothering me with 18s is the lack of an outrigger, well almost a lack of it. The 16s I could get used, downside is maybe too used. Hehe
Speaking of cushion, isn't the KD 13s released this year that has one of the most comfy cushion setups? Anyways will probably grab these when they hit outlets, imo it’s a good looking sneaker especially your colorway

This shoe can hold Lebron Power lateral movement, sir your about 5'9 150, your foot is safe within the shoes, trust it.
Fact
LeBron isnt wearing this shoe
he's definitely not 5'9, sir...he's easily 3 inches shorter
If you think NBA players wear their generic shoes then you lying to yourself
@@ThecrazyJH96 I actually saw curry wearing one of his shoes or they just looked identical to the ones I had

You 2 are so funny and it's instructive too ! Awesome vid as per usual !
Good vid, I also appreciate the thought put into the shorts matching the shoes.
this shoe is fire and so comfortable i have it in the purple and black colorway.
Ive been binging these videos so much
Lol "your rides here" great chemistry and banter all the ingredients needed for a great channel worth watching! Keep up the good work and the laughs.
Chris: "Everything is hard to remember for me, man..." Everything except shoe history, tech specs, fun facts, etc 😅
I absolutely love your videos guys!!

Dope review as always. Crazy now to say I've been a fan since the Lebron 8 performance review. 👍👍
Good to see you on the court! Those 18’s are an eyesore...
I guess that’s all subjective, because I like mine a lot, I get compliments on them all the time..
I just got my pair in and must say I’ve missed cushion, ive mainly been ballin in kyries and and pgs for the last 4 years. I went a half size down and I haven’t had a shoe that fit this good in awhile. Im glad that I didn’t have the same fit issues as you I’d recommend this shoe to my fellow big men
Can’t wait to get a pair for myself 😤 Thanks for the review!!
Shouts to the dude you were playing outside - dude’s got the Pippen fit going on!
The term "Bad Boys" is the key 🙌🏼🙌🏼 IYKYK 😄
My friend and I had different LB18 colorway and we both rolled our ankles on separate occasions while planting our feet. The laces need to be tightened up as soon as it feels loose.
Fr I have to wear an ankle sleeve
Glad to learn about the lateral stability issues being that I have terrible ankles
Entertaining as always. Honest reviews are on point again. Keep safe.
The Goat always delivers
Not the shoe, the reviewer 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
even theres no giveaways i wont stop coming back. you're too lit. hope it wont end.
I’ve studied your moves from your performance reviews. When retreating from the goal you’ll feint forward with a jab step and a crossover, dribble between the legs (from the back), half spin forward, step back, wetness.

Like the new logic. Always love the content.

This shoe fits me a lot when i play outdoor and indoor at the same time.
When you talk about the out rigger, it reminds me of that one lebron model where only his shoes had that out rigger
The 15s if I remember correctly
Yea exactly. They edited the LeBron 11’s for him, the 15’s with the outrigger, and the 17’s with an extended outrigger as well
I literally waited for this review yayaay
Used this shoe again after a long time and then i remembered why i stopped playing in them. that lateral support damn. you will always think twice when you do crossovers 😂

Great review mr. and mrs. wing. I’m not sure what it is but your videos look crispier. Keep it up!

Are you still doing a Dame 7 performance review?
Awesome review as always. Can't wait for the d rose 11 and kyrie.
Alright! Great review once again! I like the shoe now, based on this review. Just looking out for a colorway I like.
only thing for me is that I wish this shoe wasn't heavy as shit
@@theheebs100 lol ikr my lebron 9 elite Miami Vice or South Beach was heavy af but when i use it 5-7 times i can now play or use it comfortably
(Sorry for bad english)
have these shoes for basketball and there pretty good for preformance
And rocking the WNBA hoodie. You sir are a legend !
That camera quality is unreal! What’s your setup?
I returned my pair - thought the lateral issues were “just me” since I’m a widefooter... so disappointed cuz I so wanted to like these, but the narrow footbed was a deal breaker for me
Dam I'm widefooter too and know the pain of not being able to wear shoes cuz they too narrow
Would going up half a size help, or nah?
Man I can’t believe your friend was playing in his uptempos! I tried mine indoor and wasn’t the best experience lol
I have the 12s and it was painful, indoor or outdoor.
I have to return and Order 1 size up and add inner insole with bubbles like those in KD 7s
ayo all my shoes from 2020 still crispy af because all i do is wear them around the house
LMAO I feel you bro mine too
Update on the 18s. I ended up getting 2 pairs and I modified the tongue. Cut a bit of the flappy top and shortened it. Much better.
lebron 17: no bad boys
lebron 18: bad boys
as an owner of the 17s im now excited to get some lebron18. hopefully on sale. I aint rushing i got my 17s on sale as well, courts still closed in my area so no need to rush and just wait for a sweet markdown.
the homie in the pippen jersey was all happy to call foot on line haha, if only these can be nike id'
Outside of hooping in them, these shoes look sick af and are prolly great to wear casually
When Cris said it's bad boys I didn't have a 2nd thought on clicking the like button.
I love watching two pairs battling it out on the court.
Shout out to your friend, Uptempos with the Pip jersey. Very nice.
best review so far
I just got these today in the dunkman
Colourway
Damn, just now seeing this. Better late than never. Preciate you guys
Great video Guys 🏆🥷🏾
can you guys do a most durable ball shoes lineup video?
great vid man! any way you can performance review the Dame 7?
He's working on Dame 7, Kyrie 7, Puma Clyde All Pro, and Curry 8. Gyms shutting down have slowed everything down.
I love this review. Might see if I could cop one even if it's quarantine and before the note saying that they play by 1's, I was like "CHRIS JUST STEP BACK A BIT IT'S RIGHT THERE" lol
I just ordered some of these bc the guy at footlocker told me they would protect my ankle and now I’m worried
@Mahi Jariwala yes I’ve worn them for about a month and haven’t had a problem
nice hoodie!
Banger! I tried the shoe on in foot Locker like 3 of the color ways and The shoe is pretty Good But what u said The Shin part is very anoying and it hurts thats the reason i didnt buy it
Love the Kyrie 6 - with the Nike by you, I’ve ended up with 3 pairs!
Intro so fire I had to watch it twice
I recently just got these shoes I agree it does feel like your ankle is more prone to rolling but I tried wearing them again and I tie the shoelace behind the fat ass tongue and the shoes performed way better
What about durability of the traction for outdoors? @nightwing
Nice vid man. Will you still be reviewing the anta shock the game 4.0? Thanks!
He reviewed it but I don't think he's doing a full performance review of that one. You can find the video on the channel.
After hearing a few complaints about the tongue & ankle rolling i’m iffy on buying a pair but if i do it’s for casual wear only & mainly cause i’m a huge fan of comfort i gotta try out the airmax on those
On my pair I cut the inner 'sock' at the top to loosen up the fit on one side, it was cutting up my foot pretty bad, all good now.
Finally came in after waiting almost three weeks. First pair of Lebrons for playing in. I got the Lebron soldier 13 but that was more for casual.
The shoes are cool, but man.....can we talk about that sweater?!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I agree....Jodi, you stole that trophy and spanked the competition like it owed you money!! I swear there were shoulder pads until you showed that it didn’t. 😂🤦🏽♂️
I want to feel that heel cushion setup more than anything
the convo with Mrs.Wing, as always, is entertaning & funny 😂
It's shame how the forefoot lateral containment is so terrible. I've tried the Lebron 16s and love it for outdoor play.. until I rolled my ankle 3 times and then I sweared off this line forever. I did appreciate the max cushioning, and hard rubber outsoles, which makes it a quality outdoor value.
Happy Holidays to you guys! ❤️
Same to you!
where'd you get that wnba hoodie? I like it a lot more than the orange one.
Let’s go lakeshow. Good vid breh breh
I always thought lebron shoes looked bulky af and ugly but the 18s are such a vibe

Cushion: 17’s VS 18’s. Who wins?
Love 17’s cushion. Is this the same or better?
is the kyrie 6 eleven colourway limited?
