I would not call 85 degrees hot water, nor would I expect the movement of a washing machine to cause damage such as the boost turning brown or fabric bleeding. Don't get me wrong, I don't wash my shoes in the machine ever, but I still have not seen anyone post a reasonable explanation for how bad those shoes turned out.
For a washing machine it's pretty warm.
Not feeling any of the metallic/olympic gradients personally but people are gonna be all over them.
Agreed. Though if I wore my UBs to Disneyworld or on vacation to somewhere tropical, and it rained most of the day so my shoes stayed soaked and hot from my 98 degree feet, that could be harsher than the washer in some ways. It would stress and pull the knit in different directions as well as constantly compressing the boost. Especially given the pricepoint, I'd be massively pissed if they got ruined in those conditions. They are sports shoes, after all, and the world can be a harsh place.
oh **** haha. forgot about these. cant believe i thought they were cool
Haven't you ever read the fine print on the UB box label bro? "Void in case of Disneyland".Agreed.

Now is when we need some intrepid sneaker mythbuster to wash his UBs on maximum heat to see how they come out.
Yup
those sites are straight bot vs bot haha!Damn, had a chance at a pair of SB UBs, but those Shopify bots are too strong...
LOL. All this talk makes me think of my young sons who are big time sneakerheads. They'll hit me in the morning for a weather check before choosing what to wear. If it's going to be wet, they'll sometimes take some beaters in a grocery bag for recess and then change back into their Kobes or KDs for class. They have no respect for their friends with nice kicks who trash them.
Go with your primeknit nmd size cuz i wear my 11.5 in mesh ones
