Are you near the Undefeated x EQT popup? You could try tomorrow. They restocked 93/17s today.

not sure what you mean here but the eqt is like a Boost Boot. the knit is there merely to cover your feet. To me the shoe feels like it is more boost than knit lol.

there was a dismantled pic on this forum somewhere that the boost arround it is just "fake" and the actual bosot u wlak on is ub or slightly below ub thickness

It is true. But comfort is just one aspect.
UB hits more categories than eqt but I think eqts this year hit them power rankings to slot 2-3 for me.

Ah i didn't see that but if you find it. Tag me in it.
The insole also adds to the comfort. It's not your average insole found in the UBs.

Agreed. Comfort wise yes, this boost is thick as hell and you feel it more than the UB.
But like jpac said, I think UB reigns as the king when it comes to a shoe overall. Support, comfort, sleekness, continental outsole, etc.

That is the reason why I just scooped them so I wouldn't have to wonder lol.

Glad my curiosity is curbed. These will be a keep for sure. I am overly confident I can walk a whole day open/close at Disneyland with these.

So is the upper on the 93/17 PK? They look so heavy/clunky to me.

do they? Looks extremely light to me. The Adidas x Concepts looks and is clunky to me.

Just wanted to remind ya'll about this during all this EQT talk. I think @balmainish and @tankdayglo have them and said they are nice with good quality.

Anyone else get the refund notice from RIME? I'm not that mad cause the 9.5 I thought I had in the 93/17 proabably wouldn't have fit....

Is the UB already a classic? Will kids 20 years from now wear them like the Superstar's and Stan Smith's.

The only upper you will feel is the PK. There is so much boost on them that all you will feel is squishy goodness in the mid and heel.

Thanks. They initially felt a little clunky but I guess I feel that way because my whole foot is encased in boost. The feeling is almost absurd. It's almost like Adidas said, "oh you want boost huh" and they took care of us.
