Nike Lebron 20

Looks like the message in the bottle did a FSR on SNKRS

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

Kinda tripped out that he wore the pinks and sparked everybody’s interest all offseason… Then he brought em back to break the scoring record and Nike couldn’t let us have our piece of history

That’s how it’s been with the LBJ line for a long time. It’s so stupid.

They cancelled my order yesterday cause it was "out of stock" to only have a restock today

That’s what happened to me the last time they restocked.

Kind of wack they play these type of stock games.

Yea it was taking too long to ship so I just had them cancel mine. Had a feeling that would happen.

Honestly, your customs have looked better than half of what Nike gave us. Great work sir !

I appreciate it, this model was a blast to work with. Always hated not having access to PEs so I figured I’d teach myself and commit to putting out the best work that I can.

Definitely wish I pulled the trigger on some of these models.. nothing really JUMPED out at me even though I like a lot of them. Probably the Christmas ones were my favorite. Not finding a lot of 13s out there. Probably because I don't need any more shoes but still

What models tickled your fancy?

For anyone who has extensive playing time in both the 20 and the NXXT (10+ hours on court) ---

Do you have any final thoughts on cushioning differences? Is the upgraded foam (cushlon) in the 20 really that much better? Even after breaking in and compressed? Bouncier? Zoom turbo feel more lively or anything? Heel better impact protection?

Not sure if it's because I have cooked knees but I def. experience less knee pain the following day with the 20 than compared to the NXXT and 37's.
Because of that, I usually use the NXXT's for just shootaround and XX if I want to PUT THE CLAMPS ON.

I hardly ever reach for my NXXT’s anymore

SMFH.
I bought the Ghost Greens partly to how nice they looked when you posted them.
Now I got them chilling in my shelf and use them to quickly figure out which shelf starts my basketball shoe rotation.

NXXTs had a more low to the ground court feeling. They never had the cushioning of the 20.

It’s a great shoe man. I don’t want to give an exact number but let’s just say I have way too many hoop shoes in my collection. Haven’t actually played in the regular 20’s in a while either, been testing different models…GT Cut 2’s, AJ 37 mid and lows, KD 15, etc.

Would probably still say that the XX/NXXT’s are still the best current overall hoop shoes I own… but I do appreciate the bounce of FLZ and Zoom strobel in the others over Zoom turbo.

Yeah I've really like the KD15 for the full zoom strobel too. Interested in the 38, Sabrina 1, KD16 etc coming too. And still want to try 37 lows.

I asked about 20 versus NXXT because I have fully broken in a NXXT pair and they've been good to me. I like the toe protection too, weird as that sounds. More cushion would be nice. But unsure if I want to go through the whole break in process for the 20's (only playing once a week).

which I appreciated. When I did try the 20 out the box they felt higher off the ground to the point of being unsure on my feet. I realize that's just a getting used-to-them and break in process.

I've never had an issue with the toe box with the XXs until a couple weeks ago. I rolled my foot on a shoe or a loose ball (don't remember exactly) and it felt like my toenail got ripped off. I took off my shoe after the game to check and it was fine but I do wish there was a little more protection for the toes in the toe box.

I liked the stocking stuffers, the Famu joints, time machines, debuts, summer vibes. Really a lot of them I like but I just didn't love enough to pull the trigger at the price

Yeah I might have to treat myself especially with my birthday coming up, thanks for the heads up with the coupon

 

[BronGod6]

I'm ready for another colorway. I'm in the dreaded "ok, I'm bored with these" zone with the Nike Lifer. Great shoe just need a different look. Are there a few more releases to come I imagine?
