EQLZ 247 NXT 👀
Haven't had the chance to hoop in them yet, but I wore them out while running a few errands because I couldn't wait. 😅
Initial impressions are pretty positive. Cushioning feels really good, comfortable but still low to the ground. Traction also feels promising just from walking around, and the overall quality seems solid. Fit is TTS.
My only concern so far is the heel lockdown. The forefoot and midfoot fit me perfectly, but there's a tiny bit of heel movement. It's not enough that my foot is slipping out, but I definitely notice it. I have mild plantar fasciitis, so I might just be extra sensitive to any heel lift.
That said, they already seem to be breaking in, and the fit actually feels better now than when I first tried them on.
Really looking forward to getting these on the court this week.
For those who've been playing in the 247 NXT, did the heel lockdown improve after a few sessions, or is this just how the shoe fits?
