Can anyone help on sizing..I am a 9.5 in 350 boost & tubulars. I purchased Ultra Boost in a 10, length wise it's fine, lil tight in the Mid Foot, should I go with my Asics Gel Lyte 3 size which is 10.5. Thx guys in advance!
 
 
Interesting "new" black colorway? This new one has an orange Torsion thing vs the old yellow one.

Whatever. I just copped an 8.5... MY FIRST PAIR
Yea it's a new and different style code. I wonder if any updates were made aside from the orange torsion bar.
 
perfect timing, got myself some blacks.

wondering if i should get the greys as well.

i would have went 10.5

I have a 10 in 350's but prefer the 11 in UB's
 
 
So I purchased the shoes in January of this year and found out about it end of April ... 

Seoul (where I am at the moment) has four distinctive seasons and it's not very different from East Coast of United States.

Yes. Me. But there are reviews on websites that talk about the outsole wear/boost cracks.

If anybody know or is working at adidas Boost department ...

Just know you guys need to make sure this isn't happening on new CWs.
Did you go TTS or size .5 up? Trying to find out if the sizing was also a factor for the boost cracking.
 
Yeah the wife and I have a pair of the OG purple-heelcap UBs, no cracks in the sole for either of our pairs. Got ours the day it launched, I wear my pair pretty regularly but my wife pretty much uses the UB as her beater and it's still holding up well.

Not discounting NewShoeSmell's experiences though as we all know this shoe isn't perfect, what with cracking midsoles and accelerated-wear outsoles and all. Something that Adidas will hopefully remedy for the 2.0. All that said, these are still one of the best runners on the market. I'm tempted to drop the cash for the solars and I'm deffo picking up the silver pair when they release here.
Did you and your wife go TTS?

Hmmm I think this new heather gray colorway and "new" black colorway are most likely the wool versions of the Ultra Boost. Can anyone who owns the gray (not silver) colorway comment on how it feels? Any noticeable difference in comfort?

Just thought i'd inspect my dedicated Boost running sneakers (Adizero PrimeBoost) And they are indeed cracked across the front of the shoe. I have flexed the toebox slightly so the crack is exaggerated, it does run across the width of the shoe though and you can actually feel a slight drop in it when wearing compared to the other shoe thats currently ok. (I have run outside in these daily 5-10k for the last 2 months no extreme weather temps)
eeeeeeeee

your pic makes the outsole look really scary/gross

but those look like cracks across little boost elements tho, mine was straight up cracks on cracks

I think you are right. I think the new colorways are the wool versions. 

Tempted to bite on the blacks... 
 
 
I have the "new" black ones in hand, they are NOT wool. 
wow....check that, they ARE wool

I know it's been posted before, but personally, I had to pull the trigger on the grey UBs with the 5% cash from Ebates, VIP pricing, and coupon code on Road Runner Sports. Basically 25% off. $144 pre-tax and before your 5% cash back.

coupon code: CX15R039

I hate sweaty feet. Can someone please comment on if these wool models make your feet hot? My Ubs are warmer to me than most sneakers i guess because of them being snug (top of my foot)
 
Just talked to a rep on adidas.com... the only between the new core blacks and the old ones are that the newer ones have a slightly lower heel to toe drop and weighs 0.1 ounces lesst. Also the color of the torsion is orange instead of yellow.

Just ordered a pair :D
