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

[Raf Simmons]

Hey guys, trying stock locate a pair of pure boosts, and the guy at my house of hoops has no idea what he's doing. Do I just show them the barcode on the website? For example on this link right here: http://m.footlocker.com/?uri=product&sku=20483&model=219058&cm=GLOBAL SEARCH: KEYWORD SEARCH (Only shows barcode on mobile website btw) going back today, and just want to make sure I'm doing it right. Thanks NT.

White UB look nice but no way would I ever cop. Those are just dirt magnets.


City Sports (NYC) has UB for 20% off. Any better deals anywhere else?

 

[illmaticant]

Yes, let them scan the barcode for the shoe. Have a black pair on the way because of it

Wore my black UBs out last night and somebody threw up and some got on my shoes . Can I throw these in the washer to clean em, similar to how people clean Flyknits?

 

[JPS]

They are pretty narrow, I hate sizing up for ANY shoe and I have to grab .5 up in these.

How would the Ultra Boosts fare for every day gym usage? Ironically, I'm not going to be running in them, short of some ~30-45 minute cardio daily (bike, stairmaster or elliptical usually). I'm asking mostly in terms lifting. How would the UBs handle squats and deadlifts? I'm mostly on the machines or free weights, but curious anyways. 

Also every day casual wear. 

Thanks.

Yeah I would try that under a cool wash. Try not to keep me in the washer for long though to be safe. If it were me personally I would just hand wash with a brush.

I wouldn't suggest doing the big lower body compound lifts for any shoe with a foam midsole. Would probably bottom them out faster like these UBs. Definitely use shoes with a rubber midsole like I use chucks

To not get all technical about it like everyone else or have your feet hurting wearing chucks, you'll be fine g.

he's asking a specific question man lol.

if you are squatting and DL in the 375+ range then to me it will have an effect.

unless u doing air squats or smith machine squats.....

City Sports (NYC) has UB for 20% off. Any better deals anywhere else?

Do they have the all-black/whites? And do they take phone orders?

 

[melloncollie]

[thapointguy]

All white UB are listed as coming soon now. Get ready tomorrow if you need. Adidas sent out a 20% off code so check your email. They might be excluded from discount though.

Dont know about phone orders but they you get 20% off one item if you leave your email, im sure they could do it over the phone (assuming they take phone orders).

UB are included but they only have the black/purple colorway in limited sizes.

I think partly because many do not really know what tts means


One persons tts in one shoe is anothers tts in a different pair.


I mean how many has actually put their foot on the brannock device and measured their foot?

Word. In the sneaker world, it seems that most people define TTS as the size they wear their Jordans, Flyknits, Frees, and Air Maxes. In the dress shoe/boot communities, TTS means your Brannock size. If we were talking Brannock sizing, most people here wouldn't be wearing most sneakers TTS because of the padding. 

Well I assume that when people say tts in a sneaker thread then they are talking about their nike sneaker size most of the time. I haven't had my foot measured in a Brannock device since I was a kid. I buy almost all my footwear online anyway and when I go into sneaker stores to browse I don't remember the last time I saw a Brannock device out on the floor for people to use. Through trial and error I figured out my workboot and dress shoe size are 1 whole size smaller than my usual Nike size.

Yeah, that's what I immediately assume as well, despite my last comment. If anything, only the non-sneakerheads would probablyl take the TTS thing the wrong way.

Took a comparison picture of the shoes... Size 12 boost VS 12 flyknit racer. Huge difference in sizes smh.

Could you share the code if it's not unique? I didn't get anything from adidas.

Their 15% email signup code works so I think the 20% will too.
