Now even though it says to avoid comparing, thats the whole deal with this shoe, everyones trying to compete with it. I've had my ultra boosts for about 5 months now, with almost no wear on the upper, which is one of the best feeling knits out there.Boost obviously is what makes this shoe from a good shoe to a great shoe. If anyone tells you they don't like boost, they're either so stuck on Nike/Jordan that it's a religion to them, or they're someone who'd rather wear something with no cushion at all. It's a pretty smooth, cushy ride, that also gives you as much energy return while running as a more dense cushion would. It's really having your cake and eating it too.

While the bottom of the shoe is it's weakness, made of a very thin rubber, Adidas has tried to supplement that by pairing with Continental Rubber to make it much longer lasting, but it'll most likely last you a year.Because of the socklike upper, you get a one to one fit, matched with an external TPU Cup and a TPU cage, the support of the shoe is barely above average.Overall this shoe is one of the most comfortable neutral runners out there, and with a premium cushion, premium upper, and a more durable rubber outsole, I'd give this shoe a hearty recommendation.

I normally take a 2E width in running shoes, so after reading reviews about the Ultra Boost, I figured it would be a no-go for me. After trying one on in a local Adidas store, I was pleasantly surprised at how accommodating the PrimeKnit actually was to my slightly wide forefoot. I normally take a 10.5 2E in running shoes (unless they run a little wide), and the Ultra Boost fit great, 10.5 D is perfect. The width accommodation has only gotten better as the days go by and the PrimeKnit has conformed to my foot a little more. Lots of toe wiggle room available, but only after I fixed one thing...My only real complaint that hasn't gotten better is that the toebox is very shallow.

Meaning, there is a good chance you might have a little pressure on the top of your big toe if your toes aren't skinny/flat, and you'll see that Ultra Boost toe bump all the time. I replaced the stock Ultra Boost insole with a old (half as thin) insole from an old pair of New Balance Zante, and that gave me a little extra room all around, including a little extra much needed depth in the toebox. Made a great shoe even better. The stock insole also has no side lip area for the arch like most running shoe insoles do. I'm not talking about true arch support, but just a soft area to protect the arch from the side of the shoe. The Zante insole fixes this too, but adding that extra lip for more complete foot comfort.I'm using this mainly as an everyday work/casual shoe due to the comfort, but I may pick up a 2nd pair to dedicate to running. Pricey, but it really does feel fantastic on my feet. I've been having a hard time finding a good everyday sneaker that fits well and is comfortable, and I've found that in the Adidas Ultra Boost.

I use the Ultraboost 3.0 for casual walking and light running. The shoe runs long and the upper is made up of a really stretchy prime knit. Because of this, it is best to go a whole size down from your true Nike Size. Even with going a whole size down I still have a tad bit of room in between my toes and the front of the shoe, which is how I like it. I usually wear a size 10 in my Nike shoes and other brands. I wear a 9.5 in the Ultra boost 2.0 and and a 9 in the Ultra boost 3.0. I also use Insite Insole orthotics on top of the stock insole for arch support and extra stepping comfort. I would ultimately recommend trying these shoes in stores first as everyone's foot is different. I have a normal foot to a slightly wide foot.

Definitely a unique fitting shoe. Could not get a good heel lockdown for running, regardless of how I laced it. The plastic cage has a tendency to dig in to the side of your foot if you lace too hard anyway. These were not really practical for real running, but I tried to give them a shot as everyday shoes. The toe box is extremely shallow. If your big toes are anything but very flat and small you'll get a visible bump where your big toes are. The pressure from the knit fabric on the edge of my big toe drove me nuts and caused some discomfort. The shoe would only work if I removed the sock liner, but then the underfoot comfort was compromised. I tried different insoles, but all just make the toe box too shallow again. I wanted these to work for me, I even tried to ... MoreDefinitely a unique fitting shoe. Could not get a good heel lockdown for running, regardless of how I laced it.

I wanted these to work for me, I even tried to size up an additional 1/2 size over my usual 1/2 size up, and the toe box issue was the same. Ultimately, these did not work for me and I passed them on to someone else who is hopefully enjoying them more than I did. Just be aware your foot volume and characteristics will determine whether or not this shoe works for you as a lifestyle shoe. Still not convinced this could be a serious full time running shoe in any scenario.
Best shoes I've ever owned. I've used Mizuno Wave Rider and different versions of Asics Gel Cumulus in the last 7 years. I didn't even have to break into it, just felt awesome from day one. It realy fits like a glove - I think I could cut off the "cage" and get away with it. The sole is awesome - super light but great cushioning ! The stretch fabric upper is outstanding. For those with wide feet, this is brilliant - it just expands just like socks and it is super breathable.This cost me twice of what my other running shoes cost on average - but I felt like it was totally worth the extra $$One problem though - at the inner side of one shoe, the stitching came out afetr just 100 miles. I've never used it on trails or for anything other than running. It could not be ... MoreBest shoes I've ever owned.

I've never used it on trails or for anything other than running. It could not be that my feet are rubbing against each other - I would have tripped. I think I just got a bad piece - I know other runners in my group who donot have such problems.Another minor problem - the lace tends to come off frequently; I've not faced this with Asics Gel Cumulus last several yearsI would give this a 5-star rating if not for the damage that came too early. I've heard others say this would easily last close to 1000 miles !
Ive own the original ultra boost, and 3.0 and now the 4.0, These have more support within prime-knit then the 3.0 but for me the 3.0 are the softest, 3.0 are easy to slip the shoes on while the newer 4.0 have more support around the top of the shoe by the ankle kinda like the O.G 1.0 which make them a little hard to slip on(need to use the heel pull tab or a shoehorn) but stiffer and more supported for running and working out. The 4.0 are kinda like the O.G 1.0 and 3.0 meshed together style wise with patterns and all. I love all the ones Ive own so far but for comfort my 3.0 are the comfiest but these 4.0 will work well for less laxed activities. I could go on and on about the differences but these are nice shoes with nice updates. Core blacks are straight black ... MoreIve own the original ultra boost, and 3.0 and now the 4.0, These have more support within prime-knit then the 3.0 but for me the 3.0 are the softest, 3.0 are easy to slip the shoes on while the newer 4.0 have more support around the top of the shoe by the ankle kinda like the O.G 1.0 which make them a little hard to slip on(need to use the heel pull tab or a shoehorn) but stiffer and more supported for running and working out.

I could go on and on about the differences but these are nice shoes with nice updates. Core blacks are straight black this time around so thats a nice touch. Theyre like the 1.0 but softer. Love the ultra boost line. Ive also own the original energy boost and theyve come far in style and comfort since then. The original energy boosts cage hurt my feet after a couple of hours on feet from being so narrow and the prime-knit upper wasnt developed yet. I have wider feet so that was probably the cause and why I love the softness of the 3.0 the most.
After 3 months of running with these shoes, I regret not returning them while I still had the chance. Because I have wide feet, the cage on the shoe is very uncomfortable; it feels like my arches are being squeezed no matter how loose I lace my shoes. Adidas makes this shoe in only one width, so I would not recommend this shoe for anyone with wide feet.Aside from the uncomfortably, I really like the color and the design. The cushion is very good, but not as comfortable as the Brooks Ghost line, which is what I had before trying these shoes. The problem with Brooks, however, is that their shoes are pretty ugly, but Adidas makes a pretty snazzy looking shoe.I'd recommend this shoe to anyone who prefers the Adidas brand and does not have any foot problems, like ... MoreAfter 3 months of running with these shoes, I regret not returning them while I still had the chance.

But if you do have wide feet, then I'd suggest trying out either the cageless or laceless version before deciding because these shoes are not cheap.
The shoes are only suitable for casual wear. They are formless and unstable. The insole is paper thin and will fold up or role up on you if you any attempt any stop and go or lateral movements. Also, unless you choose a size that is too small, your foot will "swim" in these because the upper material is not supportive enough. They have ample cushioning, but are "squishy" feeling and unstable. Also, notice that the outsole extends past the midsole in the back. They fixed this issue in the newest model, but in these it is glaring. It will begin to separate from the midsole.
Ordered these bad boys on a Sunday and they came today on Wednesday, only 3 days. These are the coolest and most comfy shoes I’ve ever purchased and the multicolor primeknit material is so cool. I usually wear 11.5 but ordered 12s, and the only issue is that they fit really really snug around my ankle and heel even when I make the laces loose. I’ve read they stretch out after a few wears so probably not a big deal. Overall I love these shoes, and Baseball Savings have great prices and great selections so I’ll be checking out this website again the next time I need new shoes. There are a lot of negative reviews here but I have zero complaints and my experience was great. Good job
I needed for medical reasons to have a shoes that had a particularly softer insole than you dont normally find in most trainers - the ultra boosts fit the bill and most importantly give me the snug comfortable fit I was looking for ! I had reason to contact the trader on EBAY and I felt that he dealt with my concerns in an honest and reliable manner . I would have no hesitation in recommending him or dealing with him again.
