History

One of the notable releases from the Adidas EQT range is the Adidas EQT Guidance 93′. First released in 1992 it was praised for it’s lightweight construction and suitability to running. If the EQT range was home to some of Adidas’s most technically advanced footwear – the EQT Guidance 93′ was it’s mascot.

Twenty years later, Adidas brought the trainers back to the forefront with updated colourways contrasting mesh and synthetic suede upper. Alongside this, they feature technical tweaks to the original wrap-over tongue, side strip lace-stays and torsion sole unit.
