The only problem with this shoe is that the color ways are insanely atrocious and they’ve only put out 3. NB has absolutely dropped the ball with making this shoe aesthetic. Also, no one wants another man’s name on their shoe. They should’ve put a signature or logo.
Yea I wish companies would just drop a triple black or do team colorways like Nike that are basic, not just a bunch of weird/super loud crap out the gate, been a huge problem for brands like New Balance, Li-Ning/WoW, 361, Anta, just the Chinese brands and not the super mainstream brands in general.
I love the grey colorway. The only thing i don´t get is why they made the tounge kind of flimsy/less padded compared to the other colorways. I just found out when i switched back to my white/red model yesterday.
I fitted this one, it feels wierd on my feet for some reason. especially on the back of the heel (not to bottom). And it's too hard? i don't know, I am not an expert. But I like the design and color. Not those loud, insect-like colors
the grey part isn't bad looking, the yellowed out midsole looks dog(poop) thoo :))) Now I got these because of you so they'd better not disappoint :)))
I tried kawhi and wxy v4 in store. Surprisingly, Kawhi 4 is more comfy. For some reason the two wxy v4 feels kind of rigid and I don’t know if that will break in….
Have the white/red version with the partly translucent outsole. The tread is ripping of in large areas in the translucent part after not even two months of use (only indoor/volleyball). Asked New Balance about it, now they claim its an skateboard shoe and not made for basketball or volleyball...😂
👍 Umm yes and they’re quite different. One gives you a stacked up feeling on feet while the other sticks lower to the floor, more simple and minimalistic, softer too.
NB needs to make too many of this colorway. Dad shoes are still acceptable and some people may not be able to buy multiple shoes and may only get one for 1-2 years, this can be someone's everything shoe
@@TommyLiu4 good day. Sir/idol just went at a mall and check shoes and prices. I saw Flybymid 3 and precision 6 and they are cheaper compared to the precision 7. And saw giannis immortality 3 neck and neck when it comes to proce with the precision 7. Now im confused which to get
I have been using them for almost 2 months (since their release), the outsole is not durable at all. Once the grooves get taken out it all disappears quickly.

On my red/white color way the red heel portion si like washed white worn out look. At first I thought they've sent me used pair but everything else was brand new so it didn't make any sense. The I looked up the Internet and actually saw that's how they made it 😅
@@TommyLiu4 Ah okay. So its a deliberate yellowing. Smart. It wont yellow then. But i honestly thought the yellowing would explain why nb kawhi 4 never seen the market because they decide not to release and been in stock over a year or something.
truly a kawhi fit performance at the end of the vid bro😂😂 i just wish i can even try those on since NB here in the ph almost only sells either running or lifestyle shoes, so i haven't even seen the two wxy or kawhi series in person😂😂😂
Thoughts on the Kawhi 4??
🏷️ $160 USD
🟢 Traction, Cushion & Material Comfort
🔴 Lateral Containment
Thank you for watching!!
ngl I would just cuz they look clean
not available from NB website in Canada 🥲 what a joke
the shot you made at the end of the video is so beautiful. kawhi would be proud.
Thanks did you enjoy my Kawhi highlights at the very end tho
Damn dude crazy highlights at the end even kawaii went crazy
Thank you thank you emptiness is everything 🤣
love the lifestyle colorway remind me of the 2002r
🍻
Side note : your gyms be look fun to play at
i love how nike and new balance both have basketball shoes with retro aesthetics! great vid
These are so good kawhi is actually smiling in the ad.

Couldn’t agree more. Lacking in aesthetics unfortunately. Looks are subjective of course
@@camwilliams6886the aesthetic is Kawhi lol have you seen the guy? They’re spot on 😂😂😂
The aesthetic is so true to Kawhi 😂
Kawhi = 😐😐😐😐
My favourite shoe this year!
Thank you Mr. Thomas Liu 🙏🏼 I will now be buying this shoe because of your review 🫡
🙏🙏🍻 Appreciate you watching!

You really came through brother! Appreciate the review 🔥🔥 You did kawhi dirty at the end tho lmao
Haha thanks man!! 🙏🤛 Just a little bit you know.
Ty for the review Tommy, straight to the point and no bs
Appreciate you watching!! 🙏
Love your sense of humour haha. We still love Kawhi here in Canada but he deserves some slander for his disappearing act
Yes just a little bit you know lol
More colorways and get rid of that Name and changed into a logo. That would sell a lot.
I’m really wanting that red colorway, so clean
Ohhh shiiiiizzz that dream spin was qqqrazzyy

Beautiful Kawhi-esque move there in the end! Also , how's the outdoor traction and durability?
Not sure sorry I’ve only used these indoors. 🙏

Right as I bought a second pair of two wxy v4s😭
I mean can’t go wrong with that 😆

That’s wild lol
I love this colorway as well. Do you think it is worth it if you have the freshfoam bb v2?

Sounds good overall but wow they need better color ways 😄
LOL true 😂😂
If possible could you do a review of the Xtep JLin 3 Basketball shoes?
in terms of comfort which is better? wow 10/wow 11 or the kahwi 4s? which would you choose over the other? Thanks Tommy!
WOW 10
Hi Tommy would you prefer the Kawhi 4 over the don issue 6?
Hey yes
@TommyLiu4 thanks. You're the best.

Tommy, between these and the Hustle 2, which one would you pick?
@@Calamity_X7274 these
These look dope as all hell, specifically this colorway. I would want to pick it up just to wear casually , but that cost 😬.
True they’re pricey… Would make a great casual shoe indeed people won’t even be able to tell lol
The other color is better than grey color
more padding tongue, different meterial upper.
more supportive side movement.
Man, I waited but then the cyborg laugh 😂
Gotcha 🫵😆
@@TommyLiu4 🤣😂🤣
Hi tommy in terms of comfort, cushion and traction? would you prefer this over wow11 or fresh foam bb2?
Hi same level. Maybe yes.
I am thinking whether to buy this or the AE 1. I have a wide feet with size 10. Which one do you prefer if given they have the same price?
This
Price is wild for a Air Monarch knock off.. For 160 I'd rather buy the Harden 7's or 8s... AE's going crazy on secondary market
Why NB dont post player Logo on signature shoe
Was some of the pick up footage shot at Red Dot in Markham, Ontario?
Yes
NB needs to make too many of this colorway. Dad shoes are still acceptable and some people may not be able to buy multiple shoes and may only get one for 1-2 years, this can be someone's everything shoe
True good point!
What shoes do you recommend for fast and explosive guards?
I am size 8 skinny feet, wish they have size 7.5, but unfortunately nope😅
They definitely went minimalist with this one
Just waiting for a good colourway.

bro should i go for precision 7 or wade flash?
(for outdoor) open for any suggestions with similar price of the two shoe

Do a top 10 shoe so far

I have been using them for almost 2 months (since their release), the outsole is not durable at all. Once the grooves get taken out it all disappears quickly.

better than the Way of Wade 11s?
