3 MONTHS AFTER WEARING ADIDAS 93/17 EQT BOOST: PROS & CONS

[@shahjahaAn]

The only con I have with this, is that when I take them off and wear any other shoe, my feet don't like it

[@chenkazz]

So true, so mother fucking god damn true xD

[@loveK37]

I love these but i hate when people step on the boost on the back

[@aavnpn]

smh i feel you. people at my school have no respect.

[@Headhuncho3k]

Jo Sawyer there is no boost in sketchers wtf.

[@joeyjunior4283]

[@MrJarvisful]

[@southbayjose]

I love my pair. Most comfortable sneaker I own. And I read that's it's Pixelknit not Primeknit.

[@aavnpn]

J. same, people always say it's primeknit and argue when I correct them. On adidas Originals' Instagram post on them they specifically call it pixel knit.

[@southbayjose]

Asiia Phan "Pixelated signature knit upper with signature embroidered lines" Straight from Adidas.com. It's easy for people to confuse it for Primeknit so I can't fault them for it too much.

[@Triannosaurus]

Pixel knit is prime knit with he pixelated pattern shown on this shoe and many other Adidas shoes.

[@heskicks]

J. Do u own ultra boost? They are super comfy tho no lie

[@southbayjose]

Hes Kicks Oh yes of course. 3.0 Core blacks are my beaters. So comfy sometimes when I'm wearing them at home I forget that they're even on.

[@Churton98]

Got my pair last week honestly in my opinion I'd say it's comfier than the ultra boosts and there is also arch support

[@johnpaulmcdonald6294]

I have never had a boost or react shoe before and just ordered these. I have never been more excited about anything in my life.

[@MGgamer1209]

Same lmao

[@tonyswannjr]

Ben Dover lol tradition

[@howtotec3288]

[@BoxZzzGaming]

the gash on the side is definitely that you scrapped it off on something I've had mine since release and I wear them fairly often, they have cleaned up very well for me I don't notice any real signs of wear other than the outsole, as a heavier man with wide flat feet though I do feel some pain in my arch if I wear them all day

[@KD-lx1cr]

Rhelloz is it uncomfortable if you put a orthodic insole into the shoe please answer

[@jamiemason6693]

Lightning Mccoy no I put orthotic insoles in mine they do come with a built in orthotic but I would still put in another one if you have feet problems like me

[@FirBurger98]

who is it I can't recommend the 2017 pure boosts enough, my feet are stupid flat and they're perfect for me

[@DariousK1NG1]

"The boost is strong with this one" lmao

[@joecool2462]

The wrap tongue is dope and makes for more functional lace up. The thickness of boost may not be everyone's cup of tea, but others like myself will think it's absolutely perfect.

[@rkvang479]

skipped out on ultras and got eqt boost. best decision imo

[@lilacs6lolita]

Ricky Vang how u know its the best decision when u skipped on em lmaoooo

[@user-hs2wu2br47q]

Ricky Vang these dropped the same weekend the UB Oreos dropped & I decided to get both cause I really liked them. after wearing them both I decided I wanted to keep the 93/17s over the UBs because they're waaaay more comfortable.

[@rkvang479]

tried on ultras and eqt boost and like the eqt better. simple

[@rkvang479]

Austin Kassman went .5 up but wish i was true to size. i prefer a snug fit

[@mackerelduck7035]

Austin Kassman mine 1 size up tho

[@heskicks]

For those looking for a pair of these, new colorways dropped today! link in description to cop at retail!

[@matteominisini5429]

Hes I found the bottom more durable than ultraboost it dosent wear as quick

[@thanosfk4447]

Matteo Minisini Are they still good?

[@rimaharidi9556]

Hes Kicks this or the adidas POD S3.1?

[@6ix835]

Lack of support feeling is mainly due to no torsion system (esp compared to UB). Similar ride with my EQT F15 2/3 Athleisure. It's a full boost midsole but not as much boost in heel area so feels more stable than 93/17. Agree on 93/17 tongue design which should be more like the UB ST version

[@ronmccarthy977]

Just picked up a pair from Marshall’s for $60. Well worth it!

Always love your reviews because they're so honest and always give us all the info we need about the shoe before we make a purchase. Hope to see more great reviews of other hyped releases!

[@heskicks]

thanks!

[@menchiclese]

Love mine. Have had my pair for going on 5 months. I work in hemodialysis, and am in my feet for 12 to 15 hrs a day. Comfortable AF.

[@Ch1fr34k]

good job on this video man. you're the only sneakeryoutuber i can watch from start til end. keep it up!

[@heskicks]

thanks for watching!

[@mbnhiphopmusik6429]

I used to have a pair of these and I feel like these deserve a massive update: A simple tongue instead of a folding one; A harder insole, because with this insole (even with like 50kg at that time) one tends to step "into" not "on" the boost material, which I think is a massive issue; you have like to materials you drop into.

[@sbinotto3780]

fam, dont buy this shoe, trust me i have ultra boosts, pure boosts and nmds and after wearing the 93/17 for a week i hate all of them this shoe is so comfortable it fucking sucks

[@danielkhuu8462]

Joshua Lämmlin Lmfao

[@1204nedes]

I don't think there's such a thing as too much boost! I personally have absolutely no issue with the tongue... Absolutely in love with them... by far the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned and for me personally there's no cons... I'd say the spots and marks on the boost itself is the only con but it's not only with these,all the boosts either turn yellow,or they get those marks and spots which sucks but eh :/

[@JackSparrow0726]

Love em. But 2 cons. 1. So much boost in the side of heels that sometimes my feet rub against each other. 2. Toe box so low cut that it feels a bit snug due lack of height

[@ChrisJohnsoniShootnRaw]

JackSparrow0726 these do run a .5 size small. Best fit is .5 up. Gotta 10/10.5. TTS 10. 10 is really snug. 10.5 is perfect.

good series, good content

[@Jodizal]

Am I the only person who thinks it's straight nasty that people touch the bottom of their worn shoes all the time on these KZbin vids. Not saying they don't wash their hands cuz I don't know but imagine just half he stuff they step in (public bathroom floors) and all else. But good vid though lol

[@heskicks]

haha i need to start the vid by me cleaning the sneaker, thats a good plug for Reshoevn8r also lol

Thanks a lot for making me think about that now. I had my Jordan 14 on top of my closet and remembered that I wore them to the bar and went inside the men's washroom but it was disgusting in there so I went to pee outside instead but yeah I did step on something wet in that washroom...

[@icebergslim0177]

I'm really enjoying the videos for the pros and cons after wearing different shoes over time. Great insight!

[@2Pitbulls]

never too much boost

[@mrbigglesworth5391]

as of today 10/21 my eqt's have a total of 391 miles. all i do is run 5 miles a day with them on ... the boost really is comfortable, the sneaker is stable to run in and when they get dirty all i do is put them in a laundry machine and they come out just as white as the day i bought them

[@hemonga]

I think you stabbed your foot somewhere bc it's the first time i see something like that

[@heskicks]

very possible lol

[@tobias7228]

Hes Kicks My rocket boost shoes have the Same thing😅

[@rurb7365]

just got a pair of these in milled leather. Looking forward to that mountain of boost

[@pjeung23]

I agree with all ur points hes, the only thing I'd add is that the heel to toe transistion while walking isn't as fluid as it is on the ultra boost. Great vid bro!

[@akaTRENT]

I argue the portion of Boost that actually sits under the foot isn't much more than a UB. However, it's much softer. It was so weird to find thesehella comfortable -- at first. Then after a few wears you realize why the UB is so good. Although, no torsion in the Yeezy Boost V2 and feels similar to the UB. Perhaps the side walls and a firmer Boost in there is what's doing it?

[@uknowwho214]

Been following since 20k subs keep it up bro. youre the only sneaker channel i watch all the way through

[@heskicks]

thanks for watching!

[@davesawell5584]

I got the Overkill version, gotta agree on both that tongue being odd looking when on foot, and the boost sticking out of the outsole does get shredded up pretty easy. And im 70kg. Other than that i like em a lot. Good honest review.

[@10klp]

Even my ultra boost get uncomfortable sometimes. Sometimes it gets too squishy and because I'm stepping too hard so I could only imagine how bad these would be

[@jesusangeles152]

Thank you for taking my request bro I enjoyed the video!

[@brandonnicoletti8209]

It's been two years and I had to pair of eqts and one of them ripped from the boost and the other one ripped on the prime knit so I used the warranty and Adidas gave me a 250$ (Canadian money) credit so I bought ultraboost and I've regretted it ever since becuase in my opinion the eqt support were way better

[@gamestar8180]

Love this series!

[@Torvic003]

Your pretty much nailed it. Couldn't have put it better myself. I have the milled leather pair and I've only worn them once to the movies and the boost got all dirty smh still looked good for a short time

[@MrBOURBONKID2]

"The BOOST is strong with this one!" May the BOOST be with you, young padawan!

[@jackspedicy2913]

Just got my first pair

[@christianramos9279]

great job on this video! this is what im looking for... i had this on the og colorway but decides to sell them bec of this cons u mentioned. and im right! it will be hard to keep these boost clean for a long time use. anyway still very comfy shoes i tried. keep it up bro!

[@heskicks]

thanks for watching, still really like these but the boost does get dirty unfortunately, more so than the ultra boost

[@spxctr4587]

0:05 after 3 years i just found out that he said, "are these more comfortable than the adidas boost?"

[@edgarcontreras165]

I bought these for 36 dollars at Marshalls..they are the best shoes I have bought at that price and I've been looking for the next comfortable version since.

[@trulle132]

I bought the EQT and I got a bit sick of boost. So I bought a pair of Nike Air Max 97 to even it out. It works. Use The boost every other day. I still like it

[@nativ01]

Hi Hes. Great vid. Can you also make a video about the boost material yellowing over time and if there's a way to make them white again? Thanks and more power!!

[@rurb7365]

julie natividad sharpie oil based pen. Seems sketchy but trust me it works 100%

[@biga3678]

Guess youve never heard of shoe polish

[@Will-wq5ek]

I found that after around three months, I can feel the insole sticking up and rubbing against my foot on the ride side of the left shoe. Anyone else?

[@ralfsantamaria1065]

I have the white EQTs and just wanted to say that I don't experience the same issue with the boost crease. Maybe it is really weight-related considering it does have such a huge amount of boost cushioning effect.

[@Machinewashcold_]

I have a love hate relationship with this shoe. i love the white colorway and was a must cop for me. But it is not an ultraboost killer. I can wear these for most of the day but my feet will get tired unlike the ultraboost, which i can wear all day and not really feel a thing. Another thing is this shoe is missing the torsion system which was something i did not think i would notice but I definitely do. it makes the shoe feel a lot flatter. Even though it is still comfortable and looks way better than the 3.0s (my opinion) i rather wear my ultraboost if i know ima be on my feet all day.

[@Triannosaurus]

I didn't experience the boost crease on mine, but my soles did get stained the first time wearing them. Doesn't really bother me, but I was pretty bummed when I first found out about it. However, I do get a bunch of compliments, and break alot of necks whenever I wear these out haha.

[@michaelp865]

I owned my pair for about 2 weeks. Sold it. I also felt that there was too much boost. When I first drove my car (manual) I felt like I had a new clutch. Hahah the boost, using the clutch on my car was a little different, I stalled. I felt like I was tripping on own feet sometimes when I walk because the amount of boost. Comfort was out of this world, but the upper could use better materials. I still say the ultra boost is better for me.

[@adamszuszkiewicz1709]

Michael P you get used to it, I felt like that for a bit with my ultraboosts, clutch felt a bit weird. Not as bad as wearing boots

[@user-hs2wu2br47q]

i agree with you in almost all points. The boost on these shoes gets dirty sooo easy! & I am also a victim of the gash, I don't know where it came from but its there & it has nothing to do with boost "creasing" as mine is on the back heel. I haven't had any luck copping any other colorway I'm going to try my luck with the Overkills this weekend.

[@lowkeypoppin2599]

great vid hes, cant wait till u talk about ur collab with saucony 🔥🔥

[@heskicks]

thanks! and hopefully I will be able to soon!

[@rabarberellum1017]

the wrap tongue is part of the history of the EQT Support. Older versions have it to.

[@miguelaguirre1469]

Favorite adidas model IMO

[@ging3r333]

They're a hell of a lot cheaper than the ultraboost resale, on eBay I found some for £45

[@GoodCopBadCopshow]

worn them a few times and havent had the creasing yet.. but still one of my fav coming from adidas this year

[@heskicks]

it could be just me, maybe i kicked something I am not sure, hopefully its not a huge problem

[@Mapmigi]

The dirt on the boost on the rear heal is from driving your car or sitting down and not having your feet planted. The side scuff I do not know where that's from lol i have worn my about ten times and nothing. I do notice the boost sole design is distorting a bit because of wait.

[@sergiomiranda1239]

For some reason the mild leather 93/17 fit and feel better then the og and white pair and it's lighter in weight in my opinion the tongue is made of a lighter material too

[@ChrisJohnsoniShootnRaw]

I have the OG colorway, I don't have a crease in the sides but on the back I do have that stain or dirt mark. Not sure if you drive a lot but I think the marks on the back come from driving. I notice when I drive the back of the shoe rests and rubs on my car mats when I drive. I keep a pair of driving shoes now so I don't drive in them. Also sometimes I have a tendency to sit with my legs str8 out and crossed with the heels of the shoe resting on the ground when I'm like outside chilling/bird watching(aka watching women). I think that maybe another reason as well. That side marking is vicious! Lol you might of scraped something.... or yeah a bit heavy for them lol. Nice vid!

[@heskicks]

might be something from the car, good call. ahd lol watching women hahaha

[@janthony8]

Mine look fine. I wear the white and the black 2-3 times a week all day at work and after. I also walk around all day. I weight 180lbs and rock size 11. Boost looks perfect. The creasing happens more on dudes that are heavier. My boy weight over 250lbs and his did what HES kicks did. But then again my boy stresses out all his boost. So if you are relatively fit I'd say cop. Also way more comfortable than any other boost shoe IMO. Great video!

[@PlantainSupernova]

Will you be making a video for the 93/16 eqt sneakers? From what I've seen they have a similar boost tooling to the ultra boost, and more of a classic 90s material upper.

[@mus31]

I agree with you Hes, for some reason eqt support doesn't feel as comfortable for me, especially in the forefoot.

[@Mambacit0]

I don't have that boost creasing like you do, however I do believe that people should take notice that the midsole or mid area is snug. I wear 10.5 in UB's and went with a 10 in these. I can wear them, but I take out the insole so it doesn't look like my feet are gonna explode out of the shoe. I don't regret the purchase, because I love the shoes, but I wish I went with a 10.5. However, if I could only get one shoe and I was on a budget, then I would go with UB's. Prices are slowly going down and uncages are going for under retail. Hopefully my comment helps someone. Shoe Sizes for different brands (I have wide feet) Retro Jordans - Size 9.5 (TTS) NMD/UB's - 10.5 (full size up) PK NMDs - 10 (material/shoe is more wide foot friendly) BOOST EQTs - 10.5.. (I went with a 10 and I wish i got a 10.5) (Full size up like the UB's) Cons: Snug for wide-footers Lack of support Traction is too thin Tongue is awkward Get super dirty really fast Pros: Lots of boost - Comfortable (more than UB's? that's debatable) One of the best silhouettes in terms for Summer and Spring

[@1992ilikepie]

I bought these and they're ok. I'm a size 5, and adidas doesn't always size down well so they look kinda chunky on foot. And i agree with him that it's unsupportive, my heel is like constantly rubbing the back of them. But they still look dope.

[@cardiffjiang8192]

What do you mean "too much boost" affects the lockdown?

[@impulse4102]

[@xathomir]

I would love to see a first thoughts and comparison between the EQT Support 93/17 and the upcoming 91/18 releasing in August.

[@WSRFANG]

When are the boost boots releasing

[@lauwbreaker]

great honest review brotha. so i work in a pharmacy which requires standing on our feet for 8 hours/day. i am currently wearing UB uncaged as my go-to pair. however.. sometimes my feet start to ache after around the 5th hour of work. i was wondering if the EQT support 93/17 would be a good candidate.

[@heskicks]

tough call! they have more boost for sure, the UB ST is my go to for deejaying honestly

[@lauwbreaker]

thank you for steering me towards that direction. in terms of size for the UB ST, should i got 1/2 size up if i have wider feet?

[@paperboy725]

idk if u bought already because comment is 3 weeks old but since the st is already wider than the normal ub i'd give tts a shot

[@Youngsambal]

that boost crease is kinda weird. I own them and I've wear them a lot, but I don't have the boost crease. they are still my most comfortable shoe in my collection!

[@itaytabib4665]

it's pretty clean... but tbh they don't look like the most wearable.. like the colors.. I might be wrong

[@aliazhari9648]

Itay Tabib there's an all black upper

[@NIX3798]

[@cy5833]

[@hustle9549]

Damn was looking forward to buying the overkill collab, but looking at the boost sticking out at the back it will definitely get scuffed or beat up at the back.

[@cocoyotay]

I don't feel there is to much boost. Me feet are very. Picky when it comes to shoes and these are perfect

[@quatro2732]

I agree it too much boost, but i love it. The only thing i dont like when a lot of people are walking on the street they accidentally step on the back of the shoe because its so big and get dirt all over it.

[@Ten-bo5sr]

Very informative.

[@plugged5942]

i had the same issue as you mentioned in your video dude! im planning to customize my 93/17 OG colorway. planto blackout the boost...

[@sheelotastic]

I noticed I started to get a crease upon a pair of my nmds which I wear quite often. I think it's due to weight, but that's just my pov.

[@IAmCireX]

if u lace them right theres no problem with the tongue sticking out but i feel like the boost on the heel part is a bit too bulky, still love them though

[@heskicks]

the boost on the heel gets so dirty unfortunately

[@Robloxdude179856]

for me the ankle dip on the shoe is too far back, everytime i step my ankle pushes against it and it hurts

[@SamuelLee904]

Don't have that crease in the front, def looks like you scratched them. Most comfy shoes I own, but I agree that the tongue is kind of annoying. Considering putting the ortholite insole into a pair of UB

[@cheeksnatcher2431]

Imo since I was at the adidas store that had boost shoes I saw the eqt ones and ultra boost and put them both on and the ultra boost had a harder boost but still comfy like between nmd and eqt and the eqt your feet sunk into the shoes but with comfort

[@TheNatureBoy525]

Tongue is my only con for the 93/17. It seems to constantly roll over inside the shoe and can be uncomfortable at times. Not sure why it does it and can't figure out a fix for it. I do love the shoe regardless of that fact. Comfort is A1 steak sauce.

[@sanjayrathod7213]

hes please do sneaker rotations

[@McGradey]

I have these and got the same problems with the boost getting scuffed and picking up dirt. They look more worn than some shoes I have had for a lot longer because of this. No amount of cleaning gets the boost looking good again either.
