It's so difficult locating ultra boosts for a reasonable price in Canada. I have absolutely no problems paying retail but man just trying to find them is ridiculous.

The core black S77417 and core black/silver S77511 are essentially the same colorway. Difference is, 77417 were released first and had standard non-wool primeknit material. 77511 were released later and has a wool primeknit material. One sure way to tell is that 77417 has a green torsion system and green insoles (more like volt). 77511 has a red torsion system and red insoles (more like fire red).

So basically they look the same? Which one looks better wool or non wool? I cant find any pic comparison! Thanks for replying! Repped. Do both have silver aglets? Also on the stock photo on ADC, looks like the core black has black "boost" lettering. Unless it looks silver??

The surest way to tell is the torsion system on the outsole, yellow/volt for the og core black, red for the wool black. Both have silver aglets. They look very very similar on feet, the difference between the two has been overhyped. The wool black are actually slightly more black than the og core black. BUT, if I absolutely had to choose between the two, I'd probably choose the og core black. It also depends on the weather where you live. The wools are a little warmer, I haven't even worn my out yet cause it 's been super warm in my neck of the woods.

Thanks for your reply! Yeah i couldnt tell the difference between the two. The only thing looked different was the boost lettering on the heel cup. ADC stock photo looked like its matte black or some stuff but it may be the lighting'! Repped

Depends on the color. General consensus for the white UBs is to put them in the washing machine. If you go back through this thread a bit you'll find a lot of people talking about how they did it and most seem to report high levels of success. GQ posted an article about it recently titled "How to Clean White Running Sneakers". I'm not sure I'd use that method for the other colorways though, at least not with the bleach.

No doubt, yeah they both have the same lettering on the heel as well, "ultra" in black and "boost" in silver.

The place where people feast on silver ltd, they now have fsr on grey wools. When you find it, it'll say 'grey/silver metallic/solar red', but let your common sense be your guide and avoid asking if it's the ltd version.

speaking of zappos. For those of you that don't know how to distinguish the difference between the wool and non-wool core blacks, heres an example of the difference comparing the wool grey's and the non-wool ltd silver's
the fuzzy looking material is the wool pair. Supposedly warmer but I haven't felt a difference between them and my other non-wool pairs. Unless you're wearing different socks, you probably won't feel the difference either.

Thought the burgundy pair comes with the orange tab? Either way, love me a pair of those.

Burgs definitely needed! After that I'm hoping the Conti sole makes it across....although got enough pairs of UB's in rotation now that i don't think sole wear is too much of an issue

it's a little confusing as the picture also shows that the ultra boost letters are in all silver which the LTD silvers have vs. the wool greys have silver and black lettering. UO UK so far has misleading pictures, they had the all white with white soles UB, but when a few members here ordered them, they received the regular white UB with the black soles.
