The LeBron Witness 8 basketball shoes are designed with a Max Air unit in the low-profile midsole combines with a foam wrap-up for support when you’re moving in lateral directions. It helps cushion your landing while supporting the smooth transition from heel to toe. Also, it provides side-to-side stability and helps harness and direct your force. Breathable mesh provides a lightweight, conforming fit in the upper, from the webbing that harnesses your forefoot to the external molded pieces that help secure your heel. Reinforced stitching along the sides helps the shoe fit snugly for full-foot containment. The rubber outsole is split and partially cut out under the arch to help it bend and flex while helping reduce its overall weight. A classic herringbone pattern adds durable traction. These Nike shoes feature a padded collar and a diamond-stitched quilted tongue.
