Dunno if this is common knowledge or not, but I never knew Adidas isn't the one who developed/owns the boost foam.

Someone do a all white pure boost

Exact one i'm planning on doing

EDIT: Checkout seems bugged. It says $12 for shipping but shows up as $24 in my cart. Can't seem to checkout on Paypal either. Eh i'll give it a day or two before i order. Kinda need a code to sweeten the deal. BTW the 15% signup code doesn't work.

so who else uses it?

No one besides Adidas, that post was pretty misleading really. It was developed by BASF if you want to read more about it.

I need some quick advice on how the Ultra Boosts fit... There's no where local to try them on (any version).

I'm a 10 across the board, Jordan 1s, 6s, Roshe, Flyknit Racer, ZX Flux, Stan Smith, etc... A size 9.5 Roshe is a bit too small for comfort in length.

The only shoe that's a 10 that is a bit tight on me is the Disc Blaze because it has a built in "sock" as opposed to a tongue and laces. The opening squeezes against the top of my foot.

On the other hand, I'm a size 43 in dress shoes and even fit into a UK9/US9.5 in the adidas x Neighborhood Brussel Moc.

I need to know if I should go with the 9.5 or 10.5 in the J&D Ultra Boosts since they're also in a sock/bootie form.

Help!

im a 10 in Flyknit Racers, but a 10.5 in Ultra Boosts.

BASF created the foam. adidas saw it as a great opportunity to use on their running shoes...and then developed it into other sports as well.

I'm confused, that's pretty much what I said. 

 

[joeoh29]

regret sending these back.. now that its impossible for me to double up on the UBs.. these would have done nicely.... still on the hunt

It's no mystery that shoe companies use others that specialize in chemicals to create materials. Nike / adidas designers aren't chemists.
Nike paid Daewoo millions to create the material used in the foamposite.

didnt know that. cool.

Ended up going 10.5.

It's a bit long in the toe box but the width of the show is perfect.

I'm sure 9.5 would have been a hassle.

Soles cushion-wise, UB is one of the best out there. In overall comfort though, the primeknit upper would be better as a lace-up than a bootie design, it does stretch and adapt to your feet but it can be a bit too tight from the get go.

I don't know if it's just me but at times when I wear UBs they are perfectly fine when moving around and walking and actually doing something, I guess the upper stretches as you move and whatnot but when I just sit still for long periods of time, it feels a bit constricting to a point of discomfort.

15% code seems to be connected to the email you signed up with. I tried using a 15% code I found on Twitter and it kept rejecting the code when I try to log in. Something to keep in mind of if anyone is buying a 15% code.

Put in a thinner insole. That's what I did after trying them on with the stock insoles.

I might have to try that as well. Maybe no insoles for a sort of pure boost feel.
