anyone know of a spot that still has a decent size run of the blk w/ purple heel in stock?

New traction got me hype, but new color blocking is reminiscent of the Free Flyknit. The simplicity of the knit is the part of the beauty of UB.

agreed

hopefully the Continental collab will help with the traction issues lolol

HATE the color blocking on those... prob because I hate the frees.... InB4 "wow are those frees?"

i really hope those are silk market variants

That new traction looks slippery as hell when if floor is a little wet. I've already snipered in mine with the current  UB.
 
Hmmm. Not sure what I think about those 1.5 or 2.0's. I like the idea of what's possible with that color-blocking but as of now, it looks a little off. The black/grey pair is nice but the rest? Nah. Not sure about the sole either. I love the sole of the current UB but I'm sure a sole with Continental traction is probably great too. Just looks a little bulky.

Here's a picture of the reds. One of my favorite pairs I own.\
 
I been waiting for them to incorporate more into the shoe aside from solid colors. This is a good start. I like the black pair. And the new traction is great, they are real slippery now on slick surfaces.
 
The continental rubber should improve durability but that traction still looks like it's gonna be slick on anything but the dryest surfaces. I hope this is the 1.5...changing up the knit and the outsole doesn't really qualify as a sequel to me. Unless they've modified the boost in some way.
 
someone missed out on yeezys. What I don't get tho is why leave the last stripe instead of getting rid of them all

Don't know the seller, but good to know. I no longer regret missing lol. Would have definitely compared to my pairs once received obviously

Maybe they wanted them to look like kb8 elites where the dynamic flywire was only on the first eyelet

So I heard next year we are going to get A LOT of ultra boost collabs coming out. Adidas will be doing something similar to what Asics did this year with the Gel Lyte III. However, with the ultra boost, Adidas will be doing an 'around the world' theme with a different collab almost every month. So, it sounds like Adidas is smart and picking up on the popularity of the ultra boost. Hopefully we get some nice collabs at decent prices.

Also, I wouldn't pay over retail for any ultra boost. People should just be patient, I feel like we will be inundated with old and new color ways/releases.

Good news and bad news. Hopefully Adidas doesn't turn the UB into the Roshe. I know pricepoint is higher which turns off a lot of people but it seems like disposable income for sneakers in 2015 is no big deal. 

Loking forward to see what they're cooking up and also hoping they don't go too overboard.

True... i want to know how anyone at any of the many design stages didn't say they look like ****? what did the CEO do the colour ups or something. Really poor show and only suitable for the gym.

As for the 12 months of colabs that would be real good would like to see what spots like Hanon, Solebox, Collette, Overkill, and so on do when they get their hands on the ultraboost.

Those "continental" joints are garbage. I like how adidas used the toe box from the energy boost and just made that overlay pattern weave on the UB. The simplicity of the UB is what is appealing for me, beside them performing exactly how I want.

Adidas can do much better than emulating the always outlet bound flyknit frees. You're better than that adidas.

They look good! I might have to pull the trigger.
