Category Performance Ratings
7.8
Traction
Same tread pattern as the LeBron 19 mainline with a standard rubber compound. Good grip on clean courts but dust-sensitive and slips after wear outdoors.
8.6
Cushion
Full-length React midsole with a rear Air Max unit. Plush, bouncy ride with great impact protection and boosted first step but reduced court feel.
8.4
Materials
Synthetic overlays and mesh upper. Structured, breathable, and premium-feeling. Durability is above average and toe cap may need slight break-in.
8.0
Support
Structured overlays, supportive sockliner, and secure heel counter. Provides solid containment and lateral stability despite laces that do not cinch perfectly.
8.3
Fit
Runs true to size for most. Accommodating midfoot with a slightly snug forefoot and narrower toe box for some players.
50%
Outdoor
Outdoor durability is better than expected and rubber holds up initially. Traction degrades after tread wears on rough courts.
small
large
Sizing
Runs true to size for narrow and medium feet. Players who want a roomier fit should consider going up half to one size.
narrow
wide
Width
Fits narrow to regular widths best. Toe box can feel tight for wider feet. Wide footers may need to size up or seek a wide version.

The Nike LeBron 19 Low plays better than the high-top version of the shoe. The cushion setup is one of my favourites, while the support and traction are improved.

The Nike LeBron 19 Low is best for centers and forwards, and if I'm being honest, I think they perform better than the highs.

For $160, the Nike LeBron 19 Low is a solid shoe. It offers a lot of impact protection but beware of dusty courts.

Yo for some reason this shoe just worked for me, I hear most people saying that the traction is inconsistent or need some break in time, but it just worked for me right out of the box, the cushion is amazing if you dont care about responsiveness or court feel, I liked the materials and the fit as well. The durability outdoors should be decent because the base of the "crown" is hard but the top is very soft, overall a pretty good performer

The Lebron 19 low is a solid shoe and performs well, but I found the traction to be not that good. Other than that, it feels high, and doesn’t have good court feel but the materials and cushion and comfort was really good and I enjoyed it. It has crazy Impact protection and I would reccomend this for people who need cushion on shoes.

The Lebron 19 lows are amazing, and have decent traction and are bouncy. They fit nicely and only take about a day to break them in. They also are good on outdoor courts as they have held up for 2 years with no breaking and a minimally dusty bottom.

Lebron 19 low is TTS and more flush cushion, lower mid sole than lebron 19 high top. I think this is good for play and casual for both but you will not like play with this if you not prefer to play with fish cushion shoes.

picks up a lot of dust, but good feel to the court in some way still.

The tread is similar to the highs. I found that the outsole works very well when gripping outdoors. Once they wear down, though, the traction starts to slide.

The traction is the same on the 19 Low as the mainline 19. It performed well for me on clean courts, but I did slide a bit on dusty courts.

The traction is alright; it's nothing spectacular. There's no slippage, but it doesn't bite as hard as I'd like.

The traction pattern is similar, if not identical, to the regular LeBron 19. The main difference is that the performance was better on the low version. It struggles on dusty courts, though.

They aren't the nimblest shoes because of the massive amount of React underfoot. However, the shoe provides an explosive first step.

The Air unit in the heel provides lots of compression and impact protection. The React in the forefoot also feels nice. The only downside is that the shoe doesn't offer much court feel.

The Lows feature a full-length React midsole with an Air Max unit in the heel portion. I like the React foam on the 19 Lows because it isn't caged. It feels bouncy and offers solid impact protection.

A full-length React midsole and the Air unit at the back of the shoe provide a ton of impact protection. The only downside to this setup is that it's high off the ground.
