Short answer
There is no wide width LeBron that we could find, so you size instead. Order your usual size and a half size up, and keep the pair that does not pinch at the ball of the foot while the heel still stays down. The Hoops Geek suggests a half size up for wide feet in the LeBron 20 and says the Witness 9 fits narrow to regular feet best. Solefeed warns that sizing up the LeBron 20 makes heel slip worse.
How to size a LeBron for a wide foot
Measure length and width
Trace your foot the way Nike describes and measure across the widest part of the forefoot as well as heel to toe.
Order two sizes
Your usual size and a half size up, from a seller with free returns.
Test the width first
Stand, then crouch into a defensive stance. A pinch at the little toe or the ball of the foot means the shoe is too narrow at that size.
Then test the heel
Lace to the top eyelet and rise onto your toes. If the half size up lets the heel lift a lot, the extra length is costing you lockdown.
Keep the better pair
If neither works, try a different model or a knit upper rather than going up a full size.

Lacing tricks for wide feet
- Skip an eyelet over the widest part of the foot to take pressure off the forefoot.
- Loosen the bottom laces and tighten only the top two eyelets for heel lockdown.
- Swap the insole for a thinner one to free a little volume.

Questions people ask
Do LeBrons come in wide sizes?
We could not find a wide or extra wide version of any LeBron or LeBron Witness. Check the listing, but assume regular width for LeBrons.
Should wide feet size up in LeBrons?
Often a half size, yes. The Hoops Geek suggests it for the LeBron 20. The trade off is heel slip, so try both sizes and use the top eyelets to lock the heel.
Which LeBron is best for wide feet?
None is made wide. Low tops with knit uppers tend to give more than layered synthetics, so a knit upper such as the LeBron 24’s KingKnit is worth trying first. The Witness 9 is described as best for narrow to regular feet.
