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

it breaking my heart now ha ha ha

why ADC dont put a restock on 3M, MG, on a huge amount?

they will absolutely dope & damn good selling also

No idea but it creates the hype. MG was not that hard to get when it released. I remember my brother had 3 pairs on hand when it restocked because he ordered one from adc and accidentally ordered 2 pairs from villa.

 

[pg62]

Yup... returned ADC pear since Villa was tax free and free shipping

 

[dagger]

tax + ship + fees will give you around 230ish give or take + or - if i forgot to add that part. depending on location. but good luck to whoever needs those sizes

i may be going to the dark side after looking at my son's pair. What can i expect to pay for these? Half size down?

At least .5 down from UB

 

[casper90403]

are these prime knit?

Half size down for sure. They're mesh, not PK and around the $180-$220 range. There is a PK version of this colorway but you're looking somewhere in the $300 range for those.

 

[casper90403]

I may get the mesh one to test them out. Didn't want to but they look nice on the kid. Comfort still decent on the mesh, or is it once you go PK, you can't go back?

If we're talking NMD comfort doesn't really differ from mesh to PK. I actually prefer the mesh because of it's lower price point and the PK on the NMD is waaaayyy too thin for me. Seems super high maintenance if you wanna keep em clean and just don't look as good on feet. But this is all just my OP of course

thats a great investment got 3 pairs of MG
i didnt recognize the hype at that moment, and now its so damn hard to find that on decent price ha ha ha

At least .5 down from UB

mesh, 0.5 down from UB absolutely
i think below $180 thats for sure

 

[shoesharks1]

oh ok thanks for the info. so ur order from SS came 7 days after ordering??? so if got the barlin email sunday, it would be at least 7 days from the time barlin emailed me the tracking??

it came 6-7 business days after I ordered, I think I ordered on a Thursday and got shipping update over the weekend, received the next Friday (the last time I ordered, wasn't my first order with them)

thanks. Is the PK one the one with Japanese writing on the block, or do they have one without it? I'd prefer plain black. Looks cleaner.

 

[jpac]

Just don't compare any NMD to an UB comfort-wise and you should be ok.

 

[shoesharks1]

Also, first time realizing that I'm looking at the 3.0s 

that cage looks like garbage 

The translucent cages? I can't get down with em either- only 2 pairs I've seen that would interest me.

 

[casper90403]

yeah, expectations are very low here. I just like the black pair.

 

[floodarea]

Yeah there's that one or there is the Monochrome Black that came out before it. Only difference between the 2 is no Japanese on the block and white blocks with a white outsole instead of black. These will cost more than the Japans though.

Japan PK have 2 cw, the grey one with barcode look on the block & the black one with the japanese word on it

ha ha ha
actually if i may say, NMD is a spec down version of the UB
the material, the insole, the comfortness is way below UB

For me PK and Mesh pairs are two different beasts. Mesh feels like a lifestyle shoe and PK feels like a premium lifestyle shoe.

Price point for mesh is cool and as I've said 10x over the course of me in this thread, i'd pay $10 more for UBs over PK NMDs.

If PK NMDs were like $150 it'd give me more incentive to buy more PK NMDs.

 

[casper90403]

thanks. I prefer the ones with the black blocks

It was a fatal mistake for me as I sold off my NMDs, CK knit and PKs. I have the mesh sitting in the closet. Don't know when the occasion will pass when I will take them out.

For value, Pureboost ZG prime are the better spec down of the UB. 

 

[macg0120]

Had the mesh nmd and when I fitted it my tts is a great fit. Pk on the other hand is a different story. Half size down is better.

 

[dafilman]

UB's over everything 

 

[macg0120]

thanks. I prefer the ones with the black blocks

If im not mistaken I think thats the reflective that recently came out. Base on the photo you posted

 

[dafilman]

Correct they are I had them and they look nice in person but the piss poor comfort had me sending them back
