Visible Max Air cushioning is pressurized to 20 psi, helping to dissipate the hard forces of impact and give you a bouncy, responsive sensation.

Well, the shoe could’ve been very decent for the money if the core issues would’ve been addressed and corrected.

It seems that hooping in a shoe like this caused enough instability for it to happen after all this time and I feel like I needed to be super aware of my foot placement for the next 3 months I spent with the sneaker. Outdoors, I take my shoes on a classic concrete surface and a rubberized tennis court-like stadium surface.No surprises here – outdoor players who are looking to get a cost-effective shoe for a long time should definitely consider this one. The lightweight, reinforced mesh upper keeps you contained all around, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to. I’ve also got a tall midfoot bone which is why these fit me pretty much perfect right from the start.

I loved the witness 5 and the witness 6 is a small but noticeable upgrade it feels super light and has great traction. Of course, it’s not the MOST durable upper you can get today as there are much thicker and better-structured builds for the likes of athletic high-flyers, 7-foot big men, or 260 lbs attackers built like tanks. Such a deep pattern might easily attract a lot of nasty stuff inside but since the grooves are so deep, it barely affects the traction. The latest entry in LeBron's budget line is a great-looking sneaker but an underperforming performance model.

One time I landed on someone’s foot following a rebound and the other, it was just a simple change of direction laterally. The last time I saw something like this was on the Nikey Air Zoom BB NXT it wasn’t as intrusive there.

Lateral stability can be terrible at times, to the point where it can be dangerous to intensively play in these. It runs the entire length of the shoe and follows the contact zones between your foot and the ground. I’ve had plenty of outdoor shoes still biting very well despite their outsoles being visually torn apart.

They could’ve at least widened the base of the shoe at the forefoot to help save some of the stability but even that’s not the case. Social media and advertising cookies of third parties are used to offer you social media functionalities and personalised ads.

At least by judging from the thickness of the rubber and how each looked after a few months of outdoor action. The back of the toebox (right above the little Nikey logo) is fairly tall, and I’ve seen users report having a bit of room over there. The sixth edition in Nike and LeBron James’ Witness line pairs performance innovations with lifestyle elements, fusing lightweight mesh uppers to a midsole with visible Air Max cushioning.Lightweight, reinforced mesh keeps you contained all round, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external moulded pieces that lock in your heel. It should fit most foot shapes well, the laces allow for plenty of customization, and they’re nice and easy to put on.
