FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA offers excellent cushioning and energy return, making them suitable for marathon training and participation. However, runners seeking maximum stability or a very lightweight feel might consider specialized marathon shoes.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The shoe should feel snug but not tight. There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a mild soap and damp cloth is the safest method to preserve the materials and shape of the shoe.
What does 'dual-chromatic' mean for the design?
Dual-chromatic refers to the appearance of two distinct colors or shades that change depending on the angle of light. In this case, the green accents on the black shoe have a subtle, shifting sheen.
How much of the shoe is made from recycled materials?
The description specifies that the shoe is 'partially made of recycled Parley Ocean Plastic.' The exact percentage may vary, but it signifies a significant commitment to using sustainable materials.
What is the main difference between the Ultra Boost 1.0 and the Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA?
The 'DNA' designation often signifies a focus on the core design elements and technology, sometimes with updated materials or a refined aesthetic for lifestyle versatility, while maintaining the essential Boost performance.
Troubleshooting
Tight fit upon first wear
The Primeknit upper is designed to stretch and adapt to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size.
Squeaking noise during walking or running
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between the sole and the upper. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, check for any foreign objects lodged in the outsole tread.
Reduced cushioning or energy return over time
The Boost technology is highly durable, but performance can be perceived to decrease with heavy wear. Regular cleaning of the midsole can help maintain its appearance and feel. Ensure no debris is obscuring the Boost capsules.
Discoloration on the Primeknit upper
Avoid contact with harsh chemicals or strongly colored materials. Clean spills immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a specialized shoe cleaner for knit materials.
