AN EXTENSION OF THE HUMAN FOOT

Introducing our latest high-performance basketball shoe EQLZ247, a fusion of nature-inspired design and innovation by prominent American designer Aaron Cooper. We asked ourselves: how has modern basketball been evolving; just as positions blur, is the shift from game to life also becoming seamless; what if we create a basketball shoe that truly becomes an extension of the human foot?

 

 

SHARKSKIN-INSPIRED DYNAMIC GRIP

The Computational Design for EQLZ247 by David Burpee takes inspiration from three natural systems - the scales of a shark, the laminar flow of water, and a pressure map of the human foot.The outsole pattern utilizes macro and micro scale tuning. Each of the 220 individual scales are unique in their geometry and respond to pressure map data not only in size, but with variable section profiles as well as optimized orientation along a gait or flow line. Each scale is flared to extend .5mm proud of the surrounding outsole surface and stands individually on a thin web, providing a balance of performance, flexibility, and on-court feel.

 


 

PEBAX SUPERCRITICAL CUSHIONING

EQLZ247 is powered by PEBAX supercritical cushioning technology, the pinnacle of cushioned performance. Athletes will instantly experience the superior benefits of our precision-engineered midsole system, providing both advanced cushioning and exceptional energy return. This makes the EQLZ247 the ultimate choice for the next generation of game-changers.

 


ERGONOMIC TPU LATERAL CONTAINMENT

Inspired by the fluid dynamics of water and perfected for future athletes, our ergonomic TPU lateral containment technology offers unmatched support. The naturally contoured TPU on both sides provides exceptional lateral containment, ensuring optimal stability and a seamless on-court feel. Make your own waves – performance that flows.

SOCK-LIKE KNIT UPPER FEELS INCREDIBLE

Slipping your foot in is effortless. Once on, you will experience unmatched comfort that rivals any basketball shoe on the market. Our patented knit molding technology also ensures the upper delivers essential support critical for performance. This ideal blend of comfort and performance has earned consistent praise from the global basketball community.

For our most rebellious creation EQLZ247, we use only the finest materials. The premium leather rand provides exceptional upper support and enhances flexibility for dynamic movements. The leather is meticulously selected to ensure durability and a luxurious feel. Again, EQLZ247 stands out as a testament to the quality craftsmanship and innovative design that defines our brand.
