FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Primeknit upper offers a degree of flexibility and stretch, which can accommodate some wider foot shapes. However, for individuals with significantly wide feet, it's always best to try them on if possible or consult sizing guides carefully.

What is the primary purpose of the Boost technology?

Boost technology consists of thousands of small capsules that provide superior cushioning and energy return, making each step feel more responsive and comfortable, reducing fatigue during both running and prolonged wear.

How do I clean the Boost midsole?

The Boost midsole can be cleaned using a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water. Gently scrub away dirt and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure it is air-dried.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash the adidas Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method to preserve the integrity of the materials and construction.

What does '1.0 DNA' signify?

'DNA' in the model name often indicates a reinterpretation or evolution of a classic design, blending heritage elements with modern performance technology. The '1.0' refers to the original Ultra Boost silhouette.

How do I care for the iridescent accents?

The iridescent accents on the three stripes and heel counter should be treated with the same care as the rest of the shoe. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners on these areas to maintain their sheen.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Adidas typically offers a standard limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific warranty details may vary by region and retailer; please check your purchase documentation or the official adidas website for the most accurate information.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight upon first wear.

The Primeknit upper is designed to stretch and conform to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Squeaking sound from the shoes.

This can sometimes occur with new Boost technology. Try to identify if the sound is from the sole or the tongue/laces. If from the sole, ensure it's clean and dry. If from elsewhere, adjust lacing or check for any foreign objects.

Discoloration of the black material.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean regularly with appropriate methods as outlined in the care section.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, the UK 15 size offers a specific fit. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the Primeknit upper with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the Boost midsole and rubber outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  3. Laces and Insoles: Remove laces and insoles for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild detergent and allow to air dry completely before reinserting.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the trainers. Avoid direct heat or tumble drying, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
