NIKE Boy's Lebron 18 Nrg Basketball Shoe

Product Information

LeBron's high-performance engine needs a light yet strong frame to help harness and direct his force. I thought they would grow on me like the 17 did, and eventually I would put up with things I didn’t like just to get the epic cushioning, but no.

Now don’t get me wrong, I still love the design and the tech in the LeBron 18, which you can read more about here. You’ve placed them on an unrealistic pedestal that they can’t actually live up to; meeting them will diminish them, and rob you of something special in your life. It features a lightweight mix of knit and heat-moulded yarns that gives each one a durable look and feel.This model provides little to no court feel; lighter players’ weight does not push hard enough for the thick cushion to compress well. The LeBron 18 "Play for the Future" colorway features a white/clear/blue-tinted design inspired by the clean, unpolluted air athletes* need to breathe when they ball, now and in the future. I came to the conclusion that it’s too big of a solid unit, pushing down gave me the sensation that the air was dispersing through the unit, but coming off, it felt like the air wasn’t getting back quick enough to be responsive.

The Nike LeBron 18 Multi in Black, Pink Blast and Multi Colour is built with a formless/single piece KnitPosite 2. Mostly they sit on my shelf, collecting dust, while I decide to wear the LeBron 17 again and again until the rubber on the soles finally disappears. Air unit tongue padding, bright details and contrast style give these sneakers an eye-catching appearance, showcasing the outsized force and speed that Lebron produces on the court.Also you can’t deny that it’s pretty crazy that LeBron has 18 sneakers, so if you collect LeBron shoes this is obviously a must-have. The Nike LeBron 18 Multicolor was released as part of the brand’s sporting collection and to pay homage to NBA legend LeBron James.

The shoe comes in a black/multicolor-white colorway and features a FlyKnit upper in berry-like pinkish-purple schemes. If you’re smaller, you may just want to wear them to the gym or as a lifestyle shoe and stick to something lighter for when you’re getting buckets.

SBD provides millions of monthly visitors with sneaker updates on Jordan, Nike, Adidas, plus much more. Out of the different colorways, this particular “James Gang” colorway is a nod to LeBron’s wife and kids, and the vibrant colors definitely pop next to the black Knitposite upper.

Heavy and highly cushioned, we definitely consider it a big boy shoe that narrows down its target audience. While the concept of a structured heel Air Max unit stacked on top of a full-length Zoom Air unit is a great idea, I don’t think it’s actually necessary and again just adds weight to the shoe. The 18th chapter in LeBron James’ signature line for Nike, the LeBron 18 is tailored for speed and power. The upper combines a mix of lightweight materials, no-sew overlays and a structured heel to provide full-foot containment without sacrificing ankle mobility. With multiple NBA championships, MVP awards, and countless records, James continues to dominate on the court and influence off it.

I find the width a little on the wide side through the mid-foot, and the toe-box shallow; almost suffocating. I also loved the traction of the sole – it was very grippy and great for sharp cuts and lateral movements.

I would say that you need to lace them tightly, or else your foot will slide forward and your toes will get scrunched up. I didn’t have any worries playing outdoors on sport tile; I wouldn’t necessarily want to take this compound onto asphalt, but I’d deal with it to have this cushioning for such a hard surface. LeBron knows his legacy is about more than on-court accomplishments and accolades, points scored, titles won. Every hard change of direction either left me on the floor (as mentioned above), or left my foot in pain from smashing into these cables. If you’re a bigger, physical player with a strong frame like LeBron, I think it’s definitely worth trying out.
