Way of Wade, one of the leading sporting goods brand, was founded in 2012 by Dwyane Wade and Li-Ning company. After more than ten years of development and innovation, Way of Wade now holds several product branches except for the main product line, Way of Wade series. The product branches include Wade All City series, Wade 808 series, Wade Fission series, Wade Shadow series, Wade Son of Flash series, Wade Flash series, and Wade Lifestyle series. If you are new to our brand, or don’t know which shoe series to try on, you’re now in the right place. In this article, we’ll walk you through our main product branches, share with you the outstanding characteristics of each shoe series, and help you on your decision of placing your first order with Way of Wade. Now, let’s pack up to set off!
WADE FISSION SERIES
Wade Fission series, a series designed for outdoor play. If you’re looking for an outdoor performance shoe with strong traction and durability, this must be your top choice. In the early summer of 2023, Way of Wade released Wade Fission 8 equipped with COOL SHELL for a higher rate of sweat evaporation. Wade Fission 9 was released at the end of 2023 with thicker upper to better fit into winter outdoor games. Its ray patterns towards every direction on the outsole assure enough traction for crossover, suitable for players fond of consistent grip. The wire attached to shoe laces on rearfoot upper and hybrid textile upper is another highlight of Wade Fission 9, which provides superior lockdown and prevents heel slippage. Also, don’t forget to check the patterns on the tag- they are in coincidence with each colorway!
WADE SHADOW SERIES
Wade Shadow series, a series deigned for best budget. If it’s your first time with Way of Wade, or just begin your journey on sports, you can get this as a start. Wade Shadow 5, a performance shoe with a mid-high top, is equipped with rubber outsole, friendly to MOST players with slightly wide feet. Triple cushioning is the main highlight, and it consists of full-length BOOM insole (for higher responsiveness), full-palm Li-Ning CLOUD PLUS midsole (for more cushioning), and a unique midsole structure with a hole on the bottom part (for less weight). There are anti-slipping particles on the surface of insole to enhance stability and lockdown, and the throughout TPU extending from toebox to heel prevents sprains and rollover.
WADE ALL CITY SERIES
Wade All City series, a series designed for team performance. If you play several positions in a basketball team, or would like an upgrade of your current performance sneakers, this can definitely be your to-go. Sporting shoes in Wade All City series are one-for-all, which means under most circumstances, these shoes can be played in both indoors and outdoors, in different positions, and in different playstyles. Full-length BOOM midsole is the highlight of this series, which provides sporting players with superior springiness and cushioning. Upgraded from Wade All City 11, sporting shoes with BOOM midsole, TUFF RB outsole, and PROBAR LOC stabilizer, Wade All City 11 V2 provides better wrap-up feel and more comfort with TPEE yarn-woven fabric upper and updated lacing system (with two buckles on the left and right respectively). In Wade All City 12, we organized the upper in three parts for better lockdown, more horizontal support and ankle support.
WADE 808 SERIES
Wade 808 series, a series designed with drop-in midsole. If you have played in sneakers with a drop-in midsole before and are fond of its court feel, or play several kinds of court sports regularly, you can get this as your everyday training partner. A drop-in midsole is a midsole that can be taken out from a sneaker and can be switched by another midsole for one or more strengths on certain aspects. In general, it offers more alternatives on courts and sport types, functioning in the aspect(s) as you wish, for example, more support, lighter weight, and/or better bounce. Coming to its third iteration, Wade 808 3 is excellent in bounce and cushioning with forefoot BOOM and Li-Ning CLOUD PLUS drop-in midsole. Its rubber outsole is patterned in “W”, outstanding for both indoor and outdoor play. The main updates in Wade 808 3 Ultra compared with the regular version are drop-in full-length BOOM midsole, TUFF OS outsole, and carbon-fiber plates. Wade 808 3 Ultra V2 is the high-top version of Wade 808 3 Ultra, suitable for players who would like more ankle support. Its main updates is the lacing system, which provides double lockdown with wires attached to shoe laces on the toebox.
