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

So midsole will still be made from Boost material?

I'm assuming they are, but i think you are speaking about the 3D pair? I was referring to the future craft pair.

But even for the 3D pair, I'm all in if we ever get a whiff on them. They look comfortable to me. And the design is perfect

Copped these for $75 on Shoes on the web.

Strangely enough I was checking these out the other day. Can anybody comment on Cosmic Boost feel/sizing?

 
MCs yesteday evening.

MCs still aren't for me but those are some really nice shots. What do you shoot with?

Nice pickup.  My son has a pair of those Cosmic Boosts and they're great looking shoes.

I'm size 10 in racers, 9,5 in UB, and 9 in nmd.. You guys thinks i could fit a size 9 in ub uncaged? Found a pair for a very good price. 

Yes.

I'm confused. I thought the 3D pair was made out of the same material as the Olympic future crafts.

All this talk about rappers and their influence, and I'm just sitting here wishing Chance would come over to Adidas

This one was with a 50mm f/1.4 lens on an older Canon 60d.

what wash method?

Putting your Boost inside a pillowcase in the washer. I ended up taking my boost out of the pillowcase but just left the pillowcase with the load so it breaks the fall of my boost when it tumbles.

Works really well. No need for fancy shoe cleaners. Simple laundry detergent does the trick.

Lol, now people like Solar Red 1.0's?

They were my first UB's but I remember how much everybody disliked them early in this thread. Always interesting how things change.

Edit: Those blacked out Mystery Grey's last page look TOUGH.

same here

I love the look of the 3D printed midsole (although reminds me of the Tweel concept a bit), I wonder how practical it will be, in terms of how often stuff will get stuck in it if you try to be active in them.  Seems more of a "because we can" feature.  

I'm also in for those Futurecrafts, but not at the supposed prices that were leaked a while back.

solar red 1.0 are actually my favorite pair along with any of the red knit UBs. only ones I didn't cop were the solar red gradients 2.0:

Just an update here from yesterday's wash:

Left is the beater pair / Right is the DS pair

The washer method brought them (primeknit) back to life. Not sure how destructive it will be on the boost yellowing issue though.

Came out looking like new. I need to find a washer without an agitator so I can wash mine. Also need to double up. Never thought I'd like them as much as I do. Definitely my most used pair of UB's.

Some cream ultra boost

Yea I was quite surprised. I should've done a before pic. I played softball with them on at a BBQ and they were damn near creams.

I'd recommend trying it if you are looking for a cheap alternative. However not sure how it will affect the boost. Still have to get my hands on some clear finisher just in case the washer take off the gloss protective finish it has on now.

no, the midsole is clearly different.

as more on feet pics came out, they started to grow on many. I don't like loud shoes, but they look good in the on feet pics i;ve seen. Remind me of the Lebron 8 solar red lows. I copped but had to return it because they were just too loud for me.

 

[blueice]

 
Thanks!  They've become my favorite gradient pair. 

Me too man! The multicolor weave is dope up close. Adidas nailed it with the MC 2.0 IMO.

 

[dafilman]

MC's are def a beautiful shoe

If I get around to washing my pair these weekend, I'll post before/after pictures.

different strokes for different folks.

When people end up saying they regret passing on a shoe that was easily available for anyone to get I think it's just just the hype that makes them want them again. How can you dislike a shoe for awhile then all of a sudden want them when they're all gone and the price is jacked up. That's just my opinion though

 

[m boiz]

I need those Solar 1.0 someone look out 

 

[sirfrancisdrake]

What size solar 1.0's do you need?
