ADIDAS BOOST Thread - PAGE 1 for INFO- *NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING*

Me too but there's definitely a strong contingent of folks in the NMD thread who think otherwise.

Both are super comfy but the UB is just more cushioned by far.

Likewise. I think the lack of insole and raised stretch web bottom give UB's the edge on comfort.. My opinion again.

 

[elevated]

The UB and NMD are comfy in completely differeny ways I think. UB is more bouncy and you get more of a feeling of support, they feel like they hug your feet. The NMD's are much looser fitting, it's much more about your feet sitting in a nice place. With an insole they become a lot more comfy, but for day to day I'd wear UB's over the NMD's. 

Both are insanely comfy though.

I prefer the sample triple white ub than those. Not feeling that toe box one bit.

Yeah the samples are much nicer.

True, and NMD also has the plastic pieces, the ones on either side of the heel are connected by a thin connecting strip that goes all the way through the midsole underneath the heel. The plastic pieces provide stability, but they also take away from the cushioning.

Ahh, never thought of that, and I've seen pictures of the construction. Good point.

Agreed. I'm not into the knit pattern on the toe whatsoever

Took some shots of my sns pickup and thought this comparison came out pretty cool

Nice comparison, trainers were a great shoe, can't wear racers because they're too narrow.

same - cannot wear racers either -- my foot goes over the sides lol

i like the original primeknit pattern better than the "wavy"

 

[tankdayglo]

I haven't heard of anyone who likes the wave/gradient pattern over the og knit pattern.

 

[abowbre]

How long does it take for the original outsole to wear down completely if you wear them casually as everydays? And what happens when they do? will the boost start to wear down aswell?

It'll last a while. Wear mine at least 2-3 times a week and the traction is going strong. The nubs are no longer pointed but there's plenty of tread there. I have to watch myself on wet floors...but that was the case since day one

Others in this thread have talked about the boost cracking but I personally haven't experienced that yet.

I think everyone who ever wore UB on wet floors knows...

As brady said. I am not afraid of wearing my whites even on partys or in the club since I know how they come out the washing machine

Looks like a new revised upper made out of primeknit, similar primeknit construction to the ultra boost, but different pattern and still the center seam from tongue to toe.

The stripes on the sole are also more subtle

Just read this to my wife and she simply said "Amen." Chipotle's e.Coli ruined our last trip to New Orleans... thought I was gonna have to buy her an above ground plot in St. Louis Cemetery.
