Yeah but not after 2 weeks... I’m sure they’ll remedy the problem in later releases, but still not a good look. Not like Boost doesn’t have issues with discoloration. I personally haven’t had any issues like that & I put some miles on my pairs. But...I’ve seen some ugly pics of of some beaters in that thread.

I’ve stated multiple times in this thread I’m buying the grey ones. I’m a style/comfort guy, not some lame *** brand hoar who’s loyal to one company. Boost did get me buying more sneakers again, but there’s been Van’s, Asics, NB, Chucks, & yes...even Nike bought in between. I was lured to this thread in hopes I could find something more comfy than Boost. And don’t think for a second that when that day comes I won’t be buying it as long as it looks great too.

I know more people other than you have commented on his video about the wear and tear but yours was the last response I saw haha. Anyways...
Have you guys seen the bottom of a new pair? It has the exact same markings as his pair. They look worn down when they are DS. They have worn down spots already. Did he fail to look at his pair when he first got it? They look no different than the discoloring. I was looking at my pair as he was showing the wear marks on the outsole and thinking “what am I missing? Mine look exactly like that (besides the yellowing). Here’s a picture as a reference...
He based almost his entire video on something that already existed, and just failed to realize it. Facepalm...

Yea the edges of the soles are already worn in when new. Once worn it looks like the tread is worn off bc of the discoloration but it's actually that way new.

As someone who doesn’t care about brand affiliation and just like a comfortable shoe. FOR MY FOOT, i love the epic React. To me it’s better than the ultra boost. Completely unbiased opinion. I’ve owned over 40 pairs of boost in all varieties, but epic Reacts feel better than UB to me

About 8 casual wears so far. Top right and bottom left look like the tread has worn down, but like I said, it was like that when new. It just shows more on a dirty sole.

nike proably did that cause they know that's the "hot zone" for noticeable wear and tear.
gonna wait for a black out sole pair

I was reading some talk about pairs of this shoe that came out today? Did the all blacks with the blue heel clip come out already?

For those of you who have the epic reacts I have to ask how the fit feels around the laces. I have a pair of Lunarepic 2s that that have the one piece upper with the tongue attached to the rest of the upper and when I went TTS in them the lace area where the knit was tighter pinched the top of my foot. Just curious to know what y’all think the fit is

I went .5 up and I'm glad I did. It's still snug across the top of my foot but has loosened up a bit with wear.

Stopped reading here bc this is just pure ignorance:
The two companies have been forced to follow in Adidas' footsteps as it has run away with one of the few sectors of the sportswear market that is growing rapidly: lifestyle running.
Adidas basically created the category in 2015 when it released its UltraBoost line of shoes

Discussed on previous page. Those areas he's saying are worn are like that on a new pair.

did the pure boost OG wear and tear as quickly? they didn't have much outsole either but never heard a problem about them
edit: should add that I'm only making the comparison since in the video he compares the epic react to the pure boost OG

I never understand why over weight dudes will say, these are tight. Maybe your foot is just fat.

Word. I waited it out on the Zoom Flys. Will do the same for the Reacts.
