I bought this shoe strictly because I like comfort and have a bunch of blue clothing. I was surprised to find an ultra boost that was a navy blue, as they normally don't have any dark blue color ways. I was mistaken. Up into this point I have never heard of "crew navy". It's this new? Nonetheless, the pictures didn't help. As soon as I got them I immediately knew this shoe wasn't going to match anything I had. Furthermore, I realized that in order to match this shoe, I would need to buy this color exclusively from adidas. I'm not sponsored by adidas, so why should I buy a new wardrobe to match these $180 pair of shoes. I'll definitely get these in a white or black color way though. Nothing wrong with the comfort and style. I just wish they would come out with a navy ... MoreI bought this shoe strictly because I like comfort and have a bunch of blue clothing.

Not sure why adidas doesn't get it.

The comfort is more than obvious! If you've never had Ultraboost shoes, grab a pair! The cherry on top of course is that I get to support my team and the colors aren't obnoxious, as having yellow, blue, and red are colors that may be tough to work with. Adidas did a good job here and I will admit that the Argentina version of the Ultraboost are also nice. The Mexico shoes could've used better combinations that would resonate better than lime green...I would have suggested making those shoes with the same red stripes (as Colombia), dark green (where Colombia's blue is located), and a white mesh with dark green (as Colombia's mix of yellow and blue). Again, this was worth it!!! Yeah, the price isn't exciting at all, but I'm also a super collector of Colombian National ... MoreThe comfort is more than obvious!

These shoes are light, have a sock feel. They cushion your feet after you slip them on. At first wear, I needed to get adjusted to this style. They stretched and molded to my feet perfectly. I did not have any blisters. I have walked in these shoes for two and half hours through hills. My feet did not kill me. They were comfortable. I love the bright yellow shoes style and design. Now since I wear these daily, my shoes are easy to put on. These shoes are an absolute bargain for what it delivers. The shoe technology and support it gives me is incredible. These shoes are fantastic!!!! These shoes are the best I have ever had for sport and walking. The shoes were delivered quickly which is wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about these shoes. In fact, I loved ... MoreThese shoes are light, have a sock feel. They cushion your feet after you slip them on. At first wear, I needed to get adjusted to this style.

It has been over a decade since a last ran on Adidas cause I always found their fit too narrow. I tried the UB 21 and surprisingly it fit me well. The Prime Blue material is top notch and good quality and stretchy. One of the draws to me for trying this shoe was aesthetics and in my opinion the best looking running shoe out right now. However, when running on it it was a different story. I had considerable heel slip more on my right than left heel. I felt the weight of the shoe when picking up the pace to my normal zone 2 pace and when picking it up to marathon and tempo pace the boost cushioning feels flat and dead. The bounce goes away and I didn't feel any responsiveness or pop from the plate on the bottom. It actually felt the opposite like I was fighting the ... MoreIt has been over a decade since a last ran on Adidas cause I always found their fit too narrow.

The bounce goes away and I didn't feel any responsiveness or pop from the plate on the bottom. It actually felt the opposite like I was fighting the shoe just to get a quicker turnover. It also felt clunky. When at jogging pace the shoes felt fine and could feel the boost cushioning. Overall not the cushioned daily trainer I expected and this version has leaned more towards the casual athleisure category. This is a great walker/jogger but as a shoe part of a rotation for training it's a hard pass. Really wanted to like this shoe but for what I bought it for it's a big disappointment and will be returning it.
These shoes cushion your feet. It feels like you have a supportive sock. You need to get use to this style. Firstly, you need to slip your feet into these. Then your feet and heat stretches the shoe to your perfect size. I did not get any blisters. These shoes are light. I feel like I am walking on air. Now I just slip these on easily. These are great for long distance running or walking. These are my go-to-distance shoes. I am blown away with these shoes. I bought these shoes in the yellow style as well, they are that good!!! Every time, I have ordered from Rebel, my deliveries arrive very quickly, which I appreciate greatly. I was fortunate to buy these shoes while they were on sale. I highly recommend these wonders.
*why I gave 1 star at the end*The pros: very comfy, love the sock like feelThe cons: a little on the heavy side, but can deal with that for superior cushioningWhy 1-star? Adidas added a rubber piece at the front of the shoe on the inside (not sure what value it actually is suppose to add) that stretches from your ping toe to the side of your pinky toe. Keep reading…This was an impulse buy online. Ive never bought adidas running shoes before, but have been looking for something with more cushioning as I’m getting older. These looked like what I was looking for.When I got them I took them for a quick 1-mile test run. Went great! Then took them out another day for a 3-mile run. Went great! But could feel some discomfort in my pinky toe.

But could feel some discomfort in my pinky toe. Didn’t think much of it because I was thinking maybe I needed to break them in a little. Went on a few more shorter runs with a little discomfort but seemed to be getting better.Went on a 10 k run today and ended up with giant blisters on my pinky toes. I realized it had nothing to do with breaking them in and it’s a design flaw with that piece of rubber. Mind you I had socks on too. A very expensive lesson for me. As I normally running a minimum of 10k per run this has never been an issue for me with any other running shoe I’ve ever bought. Would love to get a refund to buy something better for the amount of money I paid.
I run from 1 to 1.5 hours daily and have for about 50 years. I buy two pairs of shoes at a time, rotate them daily, and replace them with another pair in about three months. I have worn Adidas exclusively for about 30 years. The Ultra Boost 21 is the most uncomfortable Adidas shoe I have worn. I blame the thick plastic "plates" housing the eyelets through which the shoelaces run. With little effort, the edges of the plates could be filed to a knife's blade sharpness. They are that thick. They are so thick that they inflexible, probably by design. And, other than hold the eyelets for the shoelaces, their only function seems to be to cause the upper parts of my feet to hurt. These shoes are miserable to wear. I am stubborn, so I am going to wear them for three months. ... MoreI run from 1 to 1.5 hours daily and have for about 50 years.

I do not recommend this shoe.
I'm heavier set with a wider foot and this has the perfect balance of cushion and support, plus the upper just moulds to my foot shape for an ideal fit. Genuinely would forget I had the shoes on if not for the soft feeling underfoot. I found to be true to size, and wear the same size in these as I did my ub 19s. Personally I prefer th3se compared to my old ubs. One word of warning, even though these have more boost than the last version they're actually a little bit firmer, which I like for comfortable stability, but if your preference is squishier and you expect it to be softer than older versions you may be disappointed.
I love Ultraboost, they're very comfortable and durable. This time, however, this pair I received felt cheaply made. The shoe felt a lot narrower and tighter than my previous Ultraboosts and the bottom of the shoe does not look as durable. Also, I am very disappointed with Dick's Sporting Goods packaging. They came in a broken box and the shoes were clearly worn. I hate to leave negative reviews, but I am definitely not going to buy from Dick's Sporting goods again.
I’ve worn Nike and Brooks for years. Decided I was going to try something new. Heard great things about the Adidas Ultraboost so bought a pair online. One of the most uncomfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. It looks comfortable but it’s not. Minimal cushion and narrow mid section. However, the weirdest thing is that it felt like your foot would sink a bit but the arch stayed firm. I wore these inside for about 10 mins and my arch’s were aching. I am not flat footed and have been wearing regular shoes for years. Just an all around uncomfortable show. So confused as to why so many people like them. Makes me wonder if they have ever tried a pair of Nike Pegasus or Brooks Ghost. They’re like walking on clouds. Bought my 5th pair of Nike Pegasus’s btw. Best model yet!
