Wish UBs werent so expensive, want to cop one but not for retail. Dont NEED a pair but wouldnt mind having one.

80% of my collection was at below retail, most below $150. You're just late to the game

 

[vargas666]

Can't wait for my navy UB to come in. Anyone know if they have the continental sole?

Weren't the mc 1's pretty easy to get when the very first came out?

always gotta get in before the hype starts, copped 9 pairs below retail

Have 3M and All White, Grey is my next most coveted followed by Solar Red.

I like the Chalks, but wanting the Grey Wools and having the All Whites I don't see the need.

I like the 2015 colorways but Im not ******* with the 2015 soles.

I got my OG Black/Purple for $120, can't complain as they are my "beater" pair. I still can't unbox the white UB as I know I'll mess them up on first day, haha.

Is it worth it to cop on resale? Ive seen all whites restock pretty frequently. Theres some pairs on ebay for $204 shipped though.

Absolutely not. Whites are getting restocked left and right. Just be patient and keep your eyes peeled. They can be had easily for $180 or less. Does your state charge sales tax? If so, $204 is pretty damn close to $180 + tax (I live in CA 9% sales tax). I guess cop only if you don't want to wait.

Edit: What size are you?

That's like $15 over retail after tax.. Why not just get it.

I might be crazy but I definitely feel a difference in the continental outsole.. Major improvement overall and can't look back to the OG colors even at a discount

Size 11.5, im in nyc with the ill sales tax. I figured under $210 is still around retail + tax + ship.

Do both the 3M Black and All White have continental? (Also, who/what is Continental, a collab?) I'm relatively new to the boost game. I know when I unboxed a weekish ago at least one of them did.

Just did a quick search, no dice. Go for $204 if you want to lock it down now. Found a size 12 for retail in that interests you.

3M does, all white doesn't.

Continental is a tire company. adidas uses their rubber in the outsoles of a bunch of shoes.

Continental Tire rubber is what's being referred when we talk about Continental Boosts. So the all white UBs don't have the new Continental sole. The Continental sole is a more durable rubber sole. The main issue with Ultra Boost when they came out is how fast the sole would wear down. Especially the nubs.

3M does, All White does not. Continental is the new sole that is replacing the OG sole.

You're the man, thanks!
