I have both, but I have the EP version of Lebron 20. I can say the video’s comparison are accurate. I would just add that the Lebron 20 is much more harder to break in than the wow 10. I would also suggest to go half size up for both. Although wow 10 is definitely more comfy, as I am past my prime age, I would choose Lebron 20 over wow 10 for better impact protection and durability on outdoor courts.
Yeah now that I’ve played in the Wow 10 a little more, I might go half a size up if were to get a second pair. For the Lebron’s I like the true to size fit.
Personally I’ve never had shin splints. But I would say Lebron over WOW10 because of the better cushion set up and there for less harsh on ground contacts when playing
Hey man hope your doing well, I’m a big fan of your content. I have a question for you man hope you can help me out with it. I’m torn between the WOW 10s or the Lebron 20s. I’m leaning toward the the WOW 10s but I’m afraid of the outsole durability because I do play indoors however I don’t play on wooden floors but mainly the multi purpose floors found in most gyms. What do you think?
Yo I appreciate that! I play mostly on hardwood and sport court which might be similar to the multi purpose floor you’re talking about. So far they’ve been holding up great so I wouldn’t have any concerns for outsole durability for indoor use! If possible try to try them on first, true to size fits pretty snug. If I double up, I might consider going up half a size. But if you like the snug fit then true to size should be good if you don’t have wide feet. Any particular reason you’re going WOW10 instead of the Lebrons?
@@raisethebarr Yeah bro I feel like the WOW 10s provide better lateral support and stability than the Lebron 20s. However, I do like what the lebrons have to offer when it comes to cushion and some people say the Lebrons have better traction on dust. What do you think about that?
I agree with the support and stability, mainly because the WOWs feel closer to the ground and the upper is a little less forgiving than the knit on the lebrons so containment feels better overall. For the traction, both are REALLY good and the differences for me on all courts aren’t that noticeable so I wouldn’t use traction as the deciding factor.
Thanks! Hmm I don’t usually play with an ankle brace but depending on which kind you have I probably wouldn’t recommended true to size. These shoes run very snug so I’d recommend at least a half size up if you plan to wear a brace and possibly even a full size if your brace is on the thicker side.
I haven’t worn the bron 20s, love the looks but I don’t like lebron so I probably won’t. But I do have the WoW 10s and I think they excel in grip and stability the most. I’ve always been a chronic sprainer and I don’t need braces with these! Not once have I sprained it.
Kinda fall in two camps, - Good for jumping since the cushion is the forefoot is minimal, this allows you to get off the ground fast and transfer more force - Bad for jumping since the cushion in the forefoot is minimal, less impact protection when landing After some more time in both pairs, I’ve slightly leaned more towards the Lebron 20 because of better forefoot cushioning
feel that. ive totally stopped using the wow 10 lows due to max jumping feeling pretty awful imo. the shoe is so stiff because of the full length carbon. kobe 8 and 6 had the perfect amount of carbon. i just think the wow 10 is the perfect shoe for setters and liberos. i also think they are just so overrated and need to have at least some negative reviews lool@@raisethebarr
I was wondering how they would fit on wider feet, I do like a snug fit, but I have a really wide midfoot. I already basically half size up to a 9.5 for any shoe basically with the length of my foot not really fitting the actual shoe. Do you think that a 9 would work, or would that just be way too tight and unbearable? Thanks for the response and recommendation.
Depends on your definition of better! For traction I think they both won’t be durable but will still perform about the same as each other. For durability of the upper and shoe in general I would probably go with the Lebron 20. For cushioning, definitely the Lebron 20.
So far so good! Depends on your play style tbh, like if you toe drag or where your high pressure points are on the upper. Also depends how often you play but it doesn’t have fuse in high wear areas and decent materials overall. So in general I’d say they are durable
I have never gone through a pair of basketball sneakers in all my years of living. Especially on an indoor court. Only thing that happened was I out grew them..
@@zureai that just means you have no clue what you’re doing. The materials in the shoes start to break down after wearing them for a certain number of miles. They provide less support for your body, so you’re more prone to injury and putting your body at risk. Worn down shoes can also cause more muscle and joint soreness. So your attempted flex at being able to make shoes last only told everyone you simple don’t know the mechanics of footwear.
I have a M9.5 in both. That being said, the Way of Wade 10 is definitely a more snug fit especially in the forefoot area. If you don’t like that then I’d probably say it’s safer to half size up.
@@raisethebarr What would you say about the length? I have regular feet and wear a US9.5(27.5cm) Lebron 20's. But on WayofWade's sizing guide a us9.5 is only 27cm would you say a half size up would leave too much width in the toebox? Or should i go for US9.5 in wow 10's aswell and have a snugger fir in terms of length?
Anyone played volleyball in the Wow10 (regular high top version)? Considering getting a pair but not sure how the high top fairs for volleyball, I mainly play outside or setter
I’ve only played in the lows, but in speaking with friends who have both, most prefer the highs actually because they feel like they have more cushion. Depends what your prioritize and like in your shoes. For longer matches/tournaments, i would prefer a shoe with a little more forefoot cushioning for playing OH. For setter, I think they’d be fine
I played OH and OPP in both the low and standard mid cut. Personally I don't like mid tops, so I would have to go with low top; also I felt that my ankle was a lot less restricted and I felt very mobile
