ADIDAS BOOST Thread - PAGE 1 for INFO- *NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING*

[theshoewizard]

yeah i honestly fell for the NMD train. got two primeknit ones and i was far from satisfied. traded my white XR1 for uncaged greys, probably one of the best colorways to ever drop. and thinking about letting go of my Japan greys...

I feel you are truly misleading people. Let them decide for themselves. Night and day? Fell for the NMD train? Far from satisfied? What the hell are you even talking about. I LOVE my PK pair of NMD's. You leave out the best attribute of the PK NMD in your haste to make everyone hate it like you do...and that is it doesn't strangle your foot. It doesn't grab your foot tightly like an UB because it isn't made to run in like an UB is made to. After all, it is a lifestyle shoe. The soft stretchy and more relaxed fit of the PK is awesome. 

I have many pairs of 1.0 UB, and they are my FAVORITE sneaker now for comfort and style like many frequenters of this thread. They provide more energy return and a slightly different boost feel in comparison. Yet, I find myself wearing my PK NMD when I know I won't be doing a lot of walking because A: it looks great B: the boost feels great and C: it doesn't suck the life out of your foot like an UB can after wearing it all day. So BY ALL means let your japan greys go to someone who will appreciate them. After all, why would you keep a shoe you feel you were duped into buying and is far from satisfying?

I don't have any ultra boosts but do own a few pair of nmds. I liked the style of the nmd a little better but, I found a pair of uncaged UB I like a lot but they make nmd in a very similar color. My question is, are the UB's that much more comfortable to justify the higher price?

You definitely need some ultra boost in your life. And the price of a PK NMD is 170 and UB are 180. A $10 difference in price shouldn't stop you from copping a couple pairs of UB.

 
I too was into the NMD hype when they first blasted off. Had the Tokyo mesh, the Grey mesh and the Triple White mesh. All of which I sold shortly after having them because they just weren't worth keeping to me lol

Mesh is underwhelming compared to PK for sure.

hey what's up man. sorry if i offended you but that's just my opinion. you can barely feel the boost on the NMDs, even pure boosts feel better. and the fit is just sloppy. that's my personal experience- for those that love them, by all means enjoy your pairs.

10. still thinking about it tho... but i find myself wearing them less and less.

Homie clearly loves his NMDs. My experience offended him, no biggie it happens.

Comfort wise they are actually night and day.
I tried on a primeknit NMD and you can immediately tell it's not the same.
My opinion is they look OK. I still can't get over the blocks 100% but that is just my opinion

No worries I'm not offended man. Saying you barely feel the NMD boost material makes absolutely no sense though. It sits atop a giant block of it.

Of course you can immediately tell it's not the same. If it was the same it would be called an ultra boost. If you don't like how it looks fine. To expect a completely different sneaker to feel exactly the same as another is pretty silly though my dude. And if it was "night and day" there wouldn't be people who actually prefer the NMD comfort over the UB. I don't agree with those people, but they are out there.

See i'm not crazy LMAO, it is night and day. It just doesnt feel like boost. It feels close to lunarlon but less comfy.
I have to say that i LOVE the looks, it's just the comfort. It doesnt feel premium on feet. AGAIN, IMO.

People are claiming that the RevUp restock of the White 1.0's are fake:

Differences I see are the fonts on the size tag, font on the insole, and the box. Still looks legit to me.

I like the design, but it just doesnt feel like boost on feet. the forefoot isn't plush, the heel doesnt feel like boost at all. It feels like a different foam, IN THAT CASE, what's the point of using boost? Might as well not used it at all.

Again, they look amazing, they just feel sloppy on feet.

It's not uncomfortable, IT JUST DOESNT FEEL LIKE BOOST IMO. And for that reason, I am looking to go the other way. How is that wrong? LMAO. I am simply not satisfied.

I just got mine too and these are my first pair. They fit very tight. when I remove the insoles, the fit is perfect, I do not know whether to go up half a size or try the 2.0s. Will these stretch a little?

If they're a little snug def go a half size up with the 2.0. Safe to say they won't really stretch out or anything

I thought most people find 2.0 to fit TTS and 1.0 to be a bit small? The entire shoe fits tight, its like I stuck my foot in a vacuum sealer . My reebok classics that I bought on sale for $30 feel more comfortable, except for the cushioning.

It really varies. Everyones feet are different so all the fits with people will be too. Just me personally I find the 1.0 to fit a lot more TTS than the 2.0. So I guess it's the opposite for me lol

Production date on those CB1.0? July on the whites = wiser restock?
