How to Easily Make Your First Shoe in NBA 2K22 Next-Gen MyTeam Mode


If you have not customized and equipped shoes for your players in NBA 2K22 MyTeam, you are seriously missing out on boosts that help improve player stats. By equipping shoes on players, you can increase attributes such as vertical, dunks, speed, and much more. If you have a player that you wish could have better ball handling, add the ball handling boost to the shoe and equip them on the player. Trust me, this is something that you definitely want to do before you play your next game.

Shoes add boosts to your players.

Before customizing your first shoe, it is important that you pay close attention to the type of shoe that each player can equip. Each player can only equip the brand of shoe that is indicated on their card. For example, if you have a Micheal Jordan card that has the Jordan symbol on the card, you cannot equip a pair of Nikes on that player.
