These Desert Boosts are extremely difficult to get on foot. 

Size 0.5 down.

I went a half size down. The length of the shoe is good however, the shoe is roomy, even at a half size down. I do not think I could have went a full size down.

It just has an extremely narrow opening. Plus, there is an elastic band that secures your foot in. I am basically unlacing them half-way down to get it on foot.

The weather has been pretty hot/rainy here in New York. I will try to put a pic up when I get the chance.

A couple of quick solo snaps from my Galaxy S5

They feel like your average regular Qasa and the "boost" part does not affect the comfort of the shoe at all. I do not understand why there is a piece of boost for aesthetics. Overall I like how snug it feel when you lace them since the material on the upper is all elastic (Olive) not to mention how great it looks (a cross between low and Hi Qasa)  I'm pretty sure the two other color way will feel a little different because the upper that they use for each one is different.

Black/Red: uses neoprene

Olive: uses elastic bands

Black/White: uses Knit ( I'm going to assume that the knit that they use for this one is the Ultra boost Knit).

So how was the fit?

I can do a 9.5 in retro boost im a 10 TTS.

I'm thinking i should just stick with a 10 for these.

Whats your opinion.

They look good!

Yes, I would stay TTS on the qr boost. The olive ones fit really well when i lace them it clamps down really well from the upper. unlike the qasa lows which feels like the ball of your heel slippin at times.

Im a 10.5 tts
Qasa: 10
Qasa low: 10
Retro boost: 10.5

Hope this helps

 but 350€ is just prohibitive. 

Maybe in the future.

Just bought those QR Boost Knits they've been on my radar since March when I first seen them. Should get them in on Wednesday.
 
I bought the Qasa Low Black/Orange and it fit too big.

My Qasa High was us9 so i thought the low would fit the same but...Damned.

Need to sell it to get smaller sizes.

Need a us8.5 now. Anyone know if anywhere to sell the Primeknit or Orange in us8.5?
 
I ordered Floral Retro Boosts from Saks but they accidentally sent me Qasa low ii primeknits for $128 (without OG box though).

Just because I just ordered my TTS in the retro boost. If they fit better I'll keep this and sell the .5 sz down ones if not they will either be sold it sent back. This will answer a lot of questions lol

Update:
My TTS (sz 10) in Retro Boost just came in. Tried them on and they fit basically the same as the .5 down from TTS, slightly less snug but still snug. The only diffrence I can tell is when I walk the ankle area is looser than the .5 sz down. Previously I said that the .5 sz down would become kinda too snug after walking a bit, maybe from foot swelling. The slight slip in ankle area isnt a big issue for me because really i want a shoe that is comfy and kinda loose on the foot.
Lined up with the sz 10 and sz 9.5 sole to sole they are pretty much the same except the sz 10 is a lil bit longer.
