View media item 1766855Why are the bottoms white? Does it come like that or is it false advertising?

Most likely it's the stock photo of an early sample that was never actually released, keeps popping up as a product shot when the site is actually selling the white w/ black outsole. Champs doesn't know any better. The style # is listed as 77416 which is the white w/ black outsole style #.

Just ordered the white ub's a half size down from my normal size. (Thanks to that champs link) I have other ultras that fit great in my true size, but I have a narrower foot. You guys think I should be ok? I'll try to get down to an Adidas store to confirm.

You
You'll most likely have to rock them without the insole otherwise they maybe alittle too snug on the uppers.

The SNS model and one pictures with it...do people not have concepts when they go in with a major company like Adidas and say "Let's just slap every different color and print on them" and done!
It seems absurd. Maybe I'm getting old (30) but I'd want to design something I can actually wear as much as possible. Baffles me.

Take laces and insole out. Put in pillow case. Tie pillowcase. Put in washing machine. Add detergent. Turn on machine. Walk away, have beer. Come back, air dry.

try a tide pen or similar spot remover.

Washing machine method seems to be the most recommended method for the white UBs. If you google "how to clean white ultra boosts" there are several sites that have posted tutorials. Complex did a breakdown on it, they also did a breakdown on flyknits which you can't put in the washing machine, but I bet the flyknit cleaning method would also work for the UBs. Also, if you go back through this thread there are people talking about cleaning their UBs with various methods and various levels of success.
FYI the tide pen method I've heard can have mixed results. Sometimes it works, other times I've heard it just spreading the dirt around and almost making it look worse.
Next month I'm taking a bunch of pairs of shoes into the Jason Markk store out here to get em cleaned professionally. Will post before and after pics.

You can put flyknits in the washing machine. Complex just doesnt know what theyre doing honestly. Ask anyone in the FK thread

Yikes...these fit so snug i doubt a half size down is gonna be comfy but all our feet are different. My foot is between two sizes so my UB are a half size up and they are snuggles mcdougal until I walk around a bit.

Was just offering the flyknit cleaning method as an alternative to the washing machine. There was a story that went kinda viral this week about a girl who threw the flyknit oreos in the washing machine and ruined them. BUT, she put them in on hot for a long *** time so that's probably what did it.

Weird they're posting that now. There are still some pairs of kolors floating around but they dropped a while ago and are pretty much sold out.

kind of regret not picking up those kolors but i couldnt find a US 11 and thought retail was way too much. id wear them over the white boosts.
hoping for some better colors with the new sole

Yeah for sure, I think my white/green kolors have become the top cw for me so far.
The kolors didn't come in a US 11. It was only UK "whole sizes", so UK 8, 9, 10, 11, etc. which translates to US 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5, etc.
I wear a 10 in UB (9.5 in most other kicks) and ended up getting a 9.5 and a 10.5 in the white/green. I tried the 10.5 on and it feels good on feet but it's just a bit too big and doesn't look quite right because of it. Will probably end up selling or trading them but we'll see...doesn't seem to be a huge resale market for that cw, lot of them sitting on eBay or reselling for close to retail, pretty slept on cw if you ask me.
