suh_fan93 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I only own Adidas as far as running shoes and they don't seem to be made cheaply at all imo. Quite sturdy in fact but I don't see myself plunking down 180 bucks for those shoes anyhow although I think they're pretty cool looking. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 @knapplc I'll just add that my buddy has about 10-12 pairs of Ultra Boosts and he swears they are like the best shoe ever Quote Link to comment

In my experience with the adidas, I'm always more concerned about the knit materials on the top rather than anything on the sole area. But I also would not be dropping $180 on any shoe whatsoever #ClearanceRack4Life Quote Link to comment

A large portion of our track kids wear them as their trainers. Ultra boosts are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. Without question. I have two pair, one gold and one black. It’s like running on a cloud. Quote Link to comment
PattyG Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 23 hours ago, knapplc said: Are they durable or do they just look good? I've worn my 2 pairs of ultraboosts into the ground, I own way to many pairs of shoes and usually wear my boosts everyday, easily get over a year and a half of wear on them before I start to wear the outsole off. I'll second that they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Yet to have an Issue with the flyknit material tearing. Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The Boost shoes I had felt like walking on marshmallows when they were new, but after they had a little wear on them they felt about like any other shoes. My current shoes are from their Bounce family (Alphabounce Beyond, to be exact). Quote Link to comment
