Ohio State didn't have one of those metal foot measurement tools? Very confusing to me how they could miss by that much.

In the interview, EK talks about all team equipment being custom built from scans of the players: pads, shoes, jerseys, helmets.... I'm sure it's not an off-the-shelf 10.5. At OSU, perhaps JSN has wide feet that resulted in standard 12s being more comfortable. ...or a couple long toes. ...or whatever. Now, Seahawks use a 10.5 base and then alter length/width/depth... according to individual player scan. It's a one-of-a-kind fit.

Perhaps the "good luck" of a healthy 2025 season isn't as much luck as one might think.

I otten teased by ladies for wearing 9.5. A size 10 ain't much over 9.5. 12 on the other hand ....

I read once that NBA big men with small feet are more nimble. Patrick Ewing was 7ft, but wore 1.5.5 shoes, which is small for his height.
