If nike slapped it swoosh logo on the sneakers, people would go crazy over the design. It still looks 🔥

[@tilony]

Nike is not as creative or bold as other brands now.

[@davidwitt7522]

Nah.. I think people done with the sock look. I know I am.

[@orangetweleve]

nah these look like something Adidas would come up

[@Danear]

Because it is an Aaron Cooper design, more and more China brands are using better materials with a fair good design to challenge nike these days

[@Htownbiggs52]

Yup

[@Drew.Whitcomb]

The 247 is impressive because it shows how even a young brand can make something really really good for $150. The construction, materials, tech and the thought that went into every aspect is just awesome.

[@miguelungson9230]

I am just curious. Is the EQLZ the same as the Equalizer brand that Nightwing made a video of the Equalizer Sphere? Thank you.

[@Drew.Whitcomb]

@@miguelungson9230 not the same company

[@MrCordell369]

I haven’t clicked on a review faster

[@datharo5]

Honestly, these are probably the best looking basketball shoe I have seen in a long long time. Like this feels very modern but very vintage at the same time.

[@pgarcia23ksk11]

As an older player. I really needed that forefoot cushion. Definitely love my pair!

[@blackblueandgold]

is all the pebax foam on the forefoot or is it full lenght?

[@rezap5331]

Is it necessary to go down half size in your opinion? I'm US12/46/30cm in most brands. Except Li-Ning, I'm half up from it.

[@gskuani7769]

@@rezap5331 not to me. i guess you could if you really wanted a super snug fit where your toe is right at the edge, but from my experience, going to true to size is right where I think it should be. base is wide enough to allow your toes to splice and spread out naturally with no issues whatsoever. foot stays locked down at all times also. really great so far. love everything about them aside from the traction. not that it's bad. it's just that when i really try to plant hard i notice i tend to slide instead of stopping on a dime. granted the floor i play on is always extremely dirty and not well kept at all. only worn them three times also. could just be a break in thing as well. i feel like if i were to play on any other gym floor they'd be A1.

[@pgarcia23ksk11]

@@rezap5331I stayed with my true to size which is a 12. I wear an elite or Move sock which is a little thicker than the Nike socks.

[@pgarcia23ksk11]

@@blackblueandgoldIt feels like it’s full length to me.

[@tedforsstromjacobsson4160]

Been a big Aaron Cooper fan since I saw your video with him and then the Complex sneaker show. Dude seems to just have a lot of passion and genuine curiosity which to me is rad af when you’ve done what he’s done, and for that long. Plus you co-signing him makes me think it’s real. Those shoes do look amazing too. Like a better take on the flimsy knitted stuff everyone failed at 5 years ago.

[@moezoun]

I’ve been waiting for this review for a while now! Thank you for posting! These will be my next ball shoe

[@fredraras9359]

Great review! Got mines a few days ago! Amazing!!!!!! I’m an old head and need the cushion, but also like a shoe that has great court feel, and these bad boys are so on point! Coop and his team basically made the perfect hoop shoe! I can’t wait for more from the brand!!!!!! 🤙🏾

[@CreasedHeat]

These definitely peaked my interest when I hear Aaron Cooper was involved. To me they look like a better looking AE1.

[@francogianmendoza4513]

Been waiting for this. My all-black pair comes in ~6 days 🔥 job from Coop and the team, 🔥 review from Chris

[@dondagastino1375]

Waiting on mine too. Can’t wait to play in them.

[@samaantree]

👀👀WTF I saw these on instagram and thought it was just an image render but it’s an actual shoe?!? Awesome man 🤯🖤. My size uk10.5 out of stock already 😭 imma wait 👍🏿. I pretty much talk loud anyways lol

[@AyindeOmaruDamiano]

Dope review as always. Highly anticipated. Thank you.🙏🏾

[@arianrivers8690]

AS ALWAYS, HAPPY TO SEE YOU DO REVIEWS AGAIN. YOU DO THE BEST REVIEWS AND THESE SHOES LOOK REALLY GOOD

[@03jecht]

Getting a pair. I've been waiting to hear info about this shoe from you. Thank you.

[@BobbyObado]

The one we've been waiting for. These look amazing!

[@rossgrimes238]

Non-slip shoes worn in restaurant kitchens have this type of traction. You can buy them for $30 at Walmart. I’m mad I didn’t realize this tech could be used on court. Bringing this over to bball shoes makes a ton of sense

[@theabstract9568]

Just got an ad for these and immediately came here to see if there was a WT review 😂 Starting an indoor hoop league in September and need some new hooping shoes and these were worth exploring since I was only planning on getting some AE1s. Definitely think I'm gonna order a pair of these now

[@danielmorris738]

Been looking at these, need a new shoe as I’m wearing my Kobe 11s out. This video helps me make my choice, the design and from your video the performance is top tier as well. Side note, that shirt is amazing.

[@moosehussaini]

love brands that actually put thought into cool ideas not afraid to fail but in doing so soar into new heights

[@MonicaChrisFC]

so glad you guys did a review on these 🔥🔥

[@KG91GK]

Yesss was hoping you'd do this.

[@roostoyworld2056]

Loving these new brands. Just got delivered my first pair of Serious players!

[@julianmarshall8497]

Great review. My pair just got in, they’re fire!

[@wendy_in_wonderland]

Great video as always

[@andrewT23]

Been waiting for this one

[@variandavid377]

I’ve been looking forward to this review since Aaron debut it! That swoop from the PIP 2 was the first thing that aight my eye and I LOVE IT!!! So happy to hear it’s a great performer….especially the traction which was what i was curious about. The other shoe that implemented a similar concept regarding shark skin/scales was the Kobe X traction. Seems like this actually delivered on what it set out to accomplish. As for the question of the day, as a voice actor….I’ll have to pass on the yelling, so Speaking my mind it is….I already do it, but I’ve learned to filter it better with age…..but HEY, if I have to say all the shit in my head, Done! 😂

[@Deezy_Ankh]

I see you, behind the back dime!!! 😅 Thought u were gonna slide that in there and we wouldn't notice.

[@ken901_kt]

I like the way these look. I might have to try these out.

[@stayfocus18]

just caught th e restock... I wear 10.5 casually and 11 in my basketball shoes so I went with an 11. hope the fit is right worse case I'll add an insole. Thanks for the awesome review

[@agentdubski7760]

1st. Your outsole review took a while....and I'm so glad it did. I dismissed the shoe at first, but the outsole review REALLY got my attention. And after that the construction of the shoe kept me watching. THIS shoe might be my next hoop shoe FOR REAL. AND it's a Super Clean Silhouette. 2nd. I need to yell. NO ONE needs to know what I'm thinking. 3rd. QOTD : What is your favorite Jordan that Jordan never played in? ❤

[@shamarbeckham2643]

Just played in mine tonight! Love them, could’ve gone TTS (I have wide feet) but went 1/2 size up and they still feel great

[@Alessand301]

How about the size? A little space? tight? a little free space? I have wide foot and I don't know whether to go TTS or .5 more

[@michaelmarks9002]

The unanimous praise for this shoe is awesome. They are so cool. The leather is beautiful. Love this shoe

[@douglasshindler4781]

True 13.5 here, got a 13 after measuring my foot and comparing to their size guide. They definitely run big and these fit perfect .5 size down. Loving these, rotating between these and the Kobe 8 protros, coming from the first Kawhi NBs.

[@Alessand301]

Do you have a thin or wide foot?

[@douglasshindler4781]

@@Alessand301 pretty Wide 2E or 3E, can’t remember

[@danaf1336]

Had the same exact issue with fit. Usually wear a 10 and had to go down a half size on another pair because I had too much foot movement laterally.

[@GarrettBroadnax]

Good info dude, thanks for the intro

[@Bliu2th]

These look like a better Kobe 9 than the actual upcoming Kobe 9 protro. Thank for the review!

[@twodragonjin5895]

Can’t wait for coming 247!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@gilbert2821]

like the look on this specially reminiscent of them pippen 2 which is my childhood basketball shoe in grade school. hope they sell well to the point that they can be available overseas. 🙂

[@dukestarfighter]

I can’t wait to get these on my feet! Hope the sizing works for me going TTS as a flat/wide footer. These things look awesome!

[@swarlzz]

Reckon with a skinnier foot going down half a size would be alright? I'm normally an 11 in nike shoes.. trying to suss out sizing for these, when they do re re stock.

[@dukestarfighter]

@@swarlzz just got mine in yesterday and yeah, with a skinnier foot, I recommend down 1/2 size, as Chris recommended as well. For me being slightly wide, flat footed, they work going true to size. There’s a bit of length in the toe but not too much

[@jchung1506]

@@dukestarfighterI just got mine today. I have slightly wider feet as well so I went TTS. I had the same experience as you. A little long but it didn’t cause any issues.

[@JoshuaC923]

The editing on the Rock bouncy butter! Hats off Jodie😂 What a cool shoe! About time someone kicked the big boys

[@parkerb8516]

that Robin Williams bouncing on Flubber though 😂😂😂

[@njY2K]

Aaron Cooper masterpiece! I'm so glad to see this review!

[@amosvane]

these look dope! i want to get a pair, but i would love a low version.

[@Mandozen]

I like the look of this shoes. Looks a little bit like the Wemby prototype shoes. Can’t wait for those also.

[@lesmottosky8493]

Elegant functionality disguised as a work of art. A modern visual and performance masterpiece with beautiful throwback hints of the transformational 90’s. The silhouette is so distinctive no logo is needed. The overall design says more than a brand icon could. And bonus: they’re easy on the eyes like a Victoria Secret model.

[@macfanguy]

This sneaker looks so gorgeous! ❤

[@Leon-eu7fc]

Might pick up as my next indoor pair. Kinda gives me vibes of a Nike version AE1👌🏼

[@mattsechelski1541]

Used your sponsor's, POIZON, authentication feature on my Jordan 1 Origin Story pair. I can sleep well knowing they are the real deal.

[@antoniojrsochayseng3167]

I love your x-men shirt!

[@pfvision]

they look super good def will consider picking them up

[@GeoffSweet]

Really has some AE1 vibes as well... its a great looking shoe!

[@SpurgeonLane]

The design language is fantastic on these

[@WhatShallEyeDo4U]

Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior tech/luxury improvements... What would that shoe be?

[@Y2Jason99]

Love it from a visual standpoint. Looks like a new age Jordan 9.

[@brtalksball]

"You already know that's right up my alley". OKAY bro.

[@Cowntsikin]

The design is a bit reminiscent of Fila GH3. Looks really nice. And that outsole is very interesting.

[@joshhutton9534]

These are awesome. One of the better looking shoes on the market. Well done Aaron and team! Definitely yell. I’d probably be fired by now if I said everything I thought

[@earlthomas8250]

Got me considering getting a pair

[@johnathanmccants5812]

I keep seeing the adidas crazy explosive(primeknit) for some reason..lol. Great review bro...keep it up

[@maurolinoignacio3615]

exactly what I was thinking from 2017

[@JoshuaC923]

That shoe was awesome

[@michaelsanford4891]

A very interesting shoe which brings to question if this "newer" brand can do this why can't the established brands cannot. I would go with the no filter as opposed to yelling

[@WhatShallEyeDo4U]

Maybe it's the Mossified Jordan Nostalgia in me... But these are Beautiful. I wanna wear these just to wear them.

[@Deezy_Ankh]

I went for these but was a little bit too late. Missed em.

[@SakirMorsy719]

Great looking shoe. Looks comfortable too.

[@joegross4366]

Narrow footer here; if you’re like me, you HAVE TO go down half a size! Like Chris, I went true to size and had to send them back it was so long with too much volume, even with a custom insole. Thankfully EQLZ does free returns, unfortunately I now have to wait for a restock. 😕

[@sneakerheadz_academy]

Just fighting the good fight against the YT algorithm. Another banger video. Question of the day: if you had to reincarnate in an animal, what species would you choose and why?

[@austinjang4504]

THE FLYKNIT HYPERDUNK 2017 IS BACK

[@maticerne]

as soon as they start shipping to Europe, I'm ordering it

[@Simon_E32]

this shoe seems insane, I'd definitely wear em on the court

[@rance22]

Waiting for EQLZ to make it available outside of US/CAN

[@ryanputrantwo]

I walked by a store with them in Shanghai and honestly I thought it was an UA store at first and they were the Curry 4s lol.

[@didotprihadi5789]

Shoe looks awesome, already thinking a low one would look even more awesome... even though I'm sure this already feels like a low...

[@allanroxas3669]

One of the best basketball sneaker ive used

[@duuhwinning6589]

Beautiful shoe 😍

[@Scott.A.Hettenbach]

Seeing NW2303 shooting with his kids in the b roll 🥹❤️

[@barna6935]

These remind me a whole lot of the wemby shoe concept

[@TombKingTristan]

These foam posites look sick

[@stevensteele1065]

I love the design

[@xSkysplitter777]

I went half size down and I love everything about the shoes! There is 1 thing tho, they scratched the back of my ankles pretty bad. Let me know if the same happened to you

[@JV-rl3kl]

I CAN SEE THE PASSION IN THOSE SHOES AND IN THIS IN-DEPTH REVIEW AND I'M HERE FOR IT. THIS ISN'T A WHAT CAN WE LEAVE OFF THE SHOE SO WE CAN MAXIMIZE PROFITS TYPE OF SHOE. THIS IS A BALLS TO THE WALL, LET'S MAKE THE BEST BASKETBALL PERFORMANCE SHOE, TICK ALL THE BOXES TYPE OF SHOE. THEY NEED TO CONSULT WITH CHRIS ON THE NEXT ITERATION AND FINE TUNE IT INTO THE BEST BASKETBALL SHOE THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN. I CHOOSE YELLING.

[@JohnnyStyles]

Aaron AC Cooper himself said. . . these would be a great add on to the almost zero drop style / flat . barefoot feel.... i cant wait ti try mine, after all these years of Nike and their elevated heel scams ;) This is the begining baybay

[@mrchsls]

Hoping they will consider to land it here in Asia/PH.

[@wallycallam5255]

This might have to be something to cop

[@jchung1506]

I went true to size. It did fit slightly long but I needed the width. If I went a half size down, it may have been too narrow for me.

[@anathanycaruana8350]

🔥🔥🔥

[@joefunelabrewski]

Beautiful sneaker

[@joecason5507]

They are interesting looking. I like them.

[@MrKADS-he7rq]

The design element is like the Curry 4s, with a literal "Armor" on it.

[@justinwinterholler6334]

I'm sure you've probably told the story in previous videos. But will you ever tell us what happened to make your hip pop out?

[@guytorr1199]

Another good comparison is the Nike Flight Bonafide. Even though that was an off court shoe

[@willib323]

I was wondering if there would be a review. Delivered

[@Pickleandrepeat]

can this be used for tennis, hard courts/pickeball?

[@jaydeeventura3131]

Hopefully it will be made available to more countries.

[@blackblueandgold]

is the pebax foam full lenght in the interior??

[@ll1ll1ll1ll1ll]

Midsole looks identical to the LeBron Soldier 14. The upper looks like the concept art for the Jordan 37.

[@johnkennethdelpilar2201]

I thought this was the Wemby shoe. Remember the Nike Ai Future Wemby shoe?
