Nike LeBron Witness 9 Basketball Shoe Blue
The Witness line is the affordable branch of LeBron James's shoes at Nike: the same style of play as the starting point, fewer frills. This ninth version comes in a light blue colorway with dark blue accents, a white Swoosh on the side and LeBron's little crown on the heel. We still have it in size 46 right now.
What do you feel underfoot?
Nike completely overhauled the cushioning of this model compared to the previous Witness. There's now a single full-length layer of ReactX, Nike's own responsive foam, instead of a combination of separate elements. You notice it most when coming down after a rebound: the landing is softly absorbed, and because the foam sits in a sturdy rubber rim, your foot doesn't sink in.
How snug can you get it?
The upper closes with a padded collar around your ankle, high enough to give support and low enough to turn freely. The laces run far down toward the toe, so you can really pull the shoe tight over your instep. That matters for players who change direction a lot: your foot doesn't slide to the side when you push off hard.
Can it go to the outdoor court too?
The tread and rubber under this shoe are made for a varnished indoor floor. Outside on concrete, a sole like this wears faster and loses its grip. If you want it just for indoors, you're all set. If you mostly play outside, choose a shoe with a thicker outsole and keep this one for games.
Who does this shoe work for?
Suitable if you play physically: lots of contact under the basket, pushing off hard, landing a lot. The soft cushioning takes most of that away. If you're actually looking for the lowest possible shoe with lots of court feel, this isn't your model. And about the size: check Nike's size guide before you order, so you know for sure you've got the right fit.
We recommend this Witness to players who seek a lot of contact under the rim, because the cushioning runs the full length and absorbs the landing. If you’re after court feel instead, choose a thinner model.
You play a physical game under the basket and often land with your full weight
You want support around your ankle without going straight to a high-top
You wear size 46 and are looking for an indoor shoe that’s still available in it
Looking for as little shoe as possible and lots of court feel? Then this model is too soft; look at a low-top shoe with a thin sole.
Do you play on the local court? The rubber is designed for indoors; get a thicker outsole for that.
Check the Nike size guide before you order.
In this color, we only have size 46 left.
Lace them up high over your instep, because that’s where this shoe closes.
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth after every practice.
Take them out of your bag as soon as you get home and let them dry open.
We skip the washing machine, because the glue between the sole and upper comes loose.
