The Wade All City 11 gives us a Nike Kyrie feel but with its own style.
Colorway: Sunrise
Release Date: 2023
Price: $149
Best Fitness Gifts Wade All City 10 and Wade All City 11. From our initial impressions, we can already see that it will be a worthy successor.
Traction: Way of Wade All City 11
Nike Basketball Shoes excellent traction. Depending on the colorway of the shoe, the Way of Wade All City 11 comes equipped with either a fully translucent rubber outsole or a combination of translucent rubber with solid rubber traction pods. In both cases, however, we have full-length herringbone as the shoe traction pattern. A rather beefy pattern at that.
This setup will provide excellent multidirectional coverage and will perform well both indoors and outdoors. But, if you are planning on playing with these outdoors, then you really should go with a colorway that has those solid rubber portions. Wade All City 10 V2 and have you covered no matter what moves you are making on court.
Cushion: Way of Wade All City 11
All Volleyball Shoes Best Salomon Running Shoes. Boom is Way of Wade’s and Li-Ning’s best foam cushioning system, and is very reminiscent of adidas’ Boost. It offers a nice blend between responsiveness and compression, and a very smooth ride on court.
On the Way of Wade All City 11 the slab of Boom foam is thin enough that the shoe retains a lot of court feel while still providing tons of impact protection. The Boom foam is also caged for added stability and, all in all, this is a very well-balanced and versatile setup that will work well for most positions and body types.
Materials: Way of Wade All City 11
Way of Wade shoes in general don’t have great materials, but, the Way of Wade All City 11 has some of the best materials we have seen from the brand. The All-City features a completely synthetic upper built with a combination of faux leather, mesh, and some TPU reinforcements as well.
Nothing on the shoe is premium in any way, but the layering and selection of materials boost the shoe’s performance, and in-hand feel. The good thing about having those synthetic materials is that the shoe requires minimal break-in time and remains lightweight and well-ventilated.
Support: Way of Wade All City 11
Support on the All City 11 is also on point. The shoe features a TPU torsional shank plate, two lace cables in the forefoot of the shoe, and a TPU reinforcement piece in the heel for added stability. On top of that the cushioning system is very stable itself, we have a very wide and stable base with a lot of contact area with the ground, and the materials on the upper do their job well.
There is nothing groundbreaking in terms of support on the All City 11, but all of the support elements work well together and provide a stable and secure experience on court.
Overall: Way of Wade All City 11
The Way of Wade All City 11 is another great performance model from Way of Wade in 2023, and it is also probably the most versatile shoe in its roster. The tooling and performance of the shoe will work well for most playing styles and positions, and, not only that, it will work well both indoors and outdoors. If you wanted to try your first Way of Wade Model, this might be the best place to start.
