Ultra-comfortable feel of Adidas EQT

A striking element in this shoe is the use of various materials in this pair. These materials worked harmoniously to deliver an ultra-comfortable pair. On the upper alone, Adidas used pixel knits, suede, nylon, leather, polyester, TPU, embroidered nylon, and mesh. As if there is a parade of various materials on the upper of the EQT Support 93/17.

History of Adidas EQT Support 93/17

Peter Moore, one of the designers of Nike Air Jordan 1 is a creator of Equipment Range or the EQT Line. With that line, Adidas introduced a fuss-free footwear collection. They primarily focused on construction, performance, and comfort.

EQT was tagged as the best shoe of Adidas for serious athletes. The family line of the Equipment has broadened since then. The EQT model range now includes clothing, basketball, volleyball, soccer, fencing, and running trainers.

In 1993, the Equipment Support running shoe was released. They introduced the Torsion technology, which allows the wearers to move the back and front of their foot separately, and the unique lacing system.

The brand re-engineered this iconic profile to suit the modern essentials. For its launch pack, the Adidas EQT Support 93/17 debuted in core black/turbo red colorway (aka Adidas EQT Support 93/17 Boost 'Turbo Red'). This face-lifted EQT iteration also showcased premium materials and purposeful construction.

Despite all the upgrades, the core of the EQT has never changed, "Everything that is essential, nothing that is not." Because of the appealing look of the EQT Support 93/17, it has been upgraded with modern materials and was used as a base model for several collaborations.
