my 3Ms came in today, and i am pretty surprised how much i actually like them.

I feel no difference in the soles for those asking. I have one of each on right now and cant tell the difference :lol:

NICE!  Post a pic if you can.  Mine shipped today from RRS - can't wait.  Finally a functional (Conti sole) Ultra Boost... 
 
Been MIA for a few days. Hope everybody in here is doing well!

Damnit skep, you sold me!!! I was going to pass until that on-feet pic with the 3M! Definitely passing on that multicolored pair on Champs right now until I see on-feet pictures of those. Hate that it's not an orange and closer to a Dolphins colorway.

Got in my black Palace's from sweatshop finally. Missed like two deliveries. Fresh as all hell in person. Can't wait to get them on-feet tomorrow. Also got in the Women's pink/purple pair. It was an impulse buy from FNL for $85. They're a bit out there and feminine but for the price, I couldn't pass it up. I've been thinking about pulling the trigger on them for a while. With some denim and a white shirt, they'll be fine.

Not sure how I feel yet about the Busenitz Boost. I love the concept but that tongue on Busenitz's kills it for me, always.

Loving the fact that the F&F release is releasing in 2016. Cannot wait for those. Two pairs right away. Hating that Olives aren't releasing stateside and is there any word yet on Burgundy's yet? What's up with them? Good to see some heat in here. Boost has definitely taken over the closet this year!

Olive & Burgundy are supposedly both in the same boat, not coming out in the US.

I feel the same way w/ the Busenitz Boost tongue but was talking with a homie of mine who loves the regular Busenitz shoe and he said the tongue is actually designed and intended to be easy to cut into whatever shape you want. Apparently it's a very common thing to do with the shoe. If you look closely at the pattern on the tongue you can tell there's a logical place to cut it off to make the tongue much shorter. There's actually a grip of pics online of various ways people have done it...

Yeah, I have a pair of Busenitz's that I butchered when I tried to cut the tongue. I rushed it but yeah, maybe I could have a friend who customizes help me out.
 
Pretty much all soles are removable if you know what you're doing. People do sole swaps all the time, it's just not a very simple/easy process.

I have been wondering about sole swaps as well. More specifically for the yeezy 350 and replacing sole after it wears out with UB sole. Cheaper than buying another pair on resale. Worth it?

Some of the cut jobs on there definitely look sloppy as hell. Most people who are cutting them are probably skating in them anyway so the shoes are getting torn up regardless. I'd say if you're gonna do it, unlace the shoe and try to lay the tongue out flat on a hard surface if possible. Then cut it with an xacto knife. You could even pre-cut a piece of cardboard in the shape you want & use that as a guide. Maybe tape the tongue to the hard surface too so it doesn't slide around on you when you're trying to cut it.

I personally think the 350 w/ UB sole looks really dope but I know a lot of others disagree. If you know someone who can do it really well I'd say go for it once your 350 soles are worn out. You can probably find one of the weaker UB colorways at a really good price. I'd wait till the continental soled UBs start dropping to cop your sole replacement though.

I like it, when my 350 soles start to turn, I'd invest to have the uppers put on top of UB's
 
sun glows are no bueno.

The off whites man. I might pay extra to have them now. Possibly the #1 UB on my list.

Ordered two more OG purps from sweatshop to make it 4 on ice. Stocking up. May give one to the brother in law for Christmas.
 
sizing help please...

if i wear a size 8 in flyknit racers, and I got narrow feet,  should I go .5 size down for UB? also wear 7 in stans

i would go with size 8. ub's are a bit snug and will break in anyways. i went up .5 but i have wider feet.
 
dang...I was waiting on those sun glows...and they're womens?! :smh: :frown:

Don't fret friend, the ash purple is women's too but men of unaffected character are sporting them. If you like them get them.

My 3Ms are coming in tomorrow. I should take a photo with the reflective jacket I bought.

hmm interesting.. I thought that adidas runs one size larger than nike , or am I mistaken? thought it was safe to go with half a size up from my stans

I would definitely scoop both but wear a men's 11 [emoji]128532[/emoji] That ash purple is my fav out of all the UB's.
