Anyone know when the Kolor UBs are unleashed upon the world? I'm not feeling any of the current colourways much.
 
Damn missed on whites yesterday, and just got an email that my stock located pure boosts aren't available. Damn, this week sucks
 
dope. which do you prefer? also, did u go with the same size as your trainers?

Pure comfort wise I prefer the Boost, but I like the stiffness of the Trainers for extended periods of wear due to issues with my feet.

They are both 10.5 for reference. The Trainers fit pretty small (padded), and the Boosts fit fine widthwise, but a touch long length wise. Ideally I'd be a 10.25 in the Boost.
 
Man my first wear with the UB is filled with disappointments.

The right shoe collar area feels looser than the left.
Chaffing on the top of my foot from just wearing them around the city/gym today.

Should I exchange them? .5 up felt too loose, my TTS was cool but the chaffing might be a problem. Will they loosen up a bit? If it will I guess ill stick with them, otherwise I might need to go the half size up...

Maybe your feet are different from each other? Higher socks? The knit forms to your feet after a wear or two. Stay tts

so the 15% off from email signup doesnt work on ultra boosts anymore? or are others having luck?
The 15% mailing list promo only worked on the preorder UB, which I think was just an oversight on the part of adidas. The other boost models specifically states they are excluded form any discounts.

I always wear crew socks, my feet are slightly different but I do feel my heel sliding on the right shoe. I can get over that, but today I have small bruise marks on the top of my feet from the chaffing. I would hate to go a half size up but Ill give them a couple more wears before I go that route. Hopefully they loosen up a tad.
 
Wearing my UBs right now for the first time without socks. I'm getting some heel slippage. Thankfully the material is pretty much friction free or I'd be going home with some blisters today :lol. Gonna have to wear socks when running in these, and I'm gonna have to try my true size for my next pair. (I went .5 up in these)

EDIT: Not sure what it's called, but I changed the lacing method to combat heel slippage and it worked great. Didn't think it'd work on the UBs since the cage isn't really attached to the collar, but slippage is minimal now.

Ah, I see. I received my preordered white pair but decided I like the silver more.

Not sure that it was an oversight, the white and black are still fair game for discounts. 
 
Adidas Soho had them today. Saw them, picked them up, put them back down. Ye really has a cult following cause they arent that great. The yellow accents look terrible and an all white KNIT shoe is a dirt magnet.

Black/purple og colorway is still the best color. The silver looks pretty yold too surprisingly.


But I can see the yellow blend, I know that its there. Who cares if others cant see it. And I think its turrible. :lol

I thought you put them down? The yellow looks awful. The fit is off. Return them, boosts just aren't for you
 
I'm ready to give up on the white boosts. Can't believe how badly Adidas has managed this launch. In-store releases only in NY and LA, unannounced 5 AM online release, then @adidasrunning saying on Twitter that that the real launch was delayed then announcing today that they were out of stock with no plans for restock. At least with Nike, they clearly announce the launch day and time. If I strike out on NDC, its over and I can move on. With Adidas, you can't even tell if the shoe released officially or not.

IDK where you're located but here in LA I've seen people trying to resell pairs and just not selling. The highest price ive seen on FB groups is 220 and i dont think it sold. I saw someone with a 200 price. That basically retail or $20 over which isn't too bad and it'll ease your headache

Good to know, I hope they go that low online eventually. Right now on ebay they are listed upwards of $260 right now.

I can't explain for ebay thats always last resort for me... but I think we should stay patient. This is adidas hot seller right now so I cant see them not milking these esp. after calling them "The best running sneaker ever" LOL

yea safe to say the 'bay is always 10-20% higher than true market value... resellers trying to offset ebay fees by building it into their pricing...

thats why I always message them wh a lowball offer lol

Right now I got bandaids trying to break them in more. :lol

Theres a lining under the "tongue" where the size tag is that I think is causing the chaffing. I might just take the L and grab a 10.5

Black/purp >>>
