FAQs

What makes the Boost technology special?

Boost technology uses TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) pellets fused together, providing exceptional energy return and responsive cushioning that remains consistent in various temperatures.

Is this shoe suitable for pronation support?

The Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA is primarily designed for neutral runners. While it offers good stability, it may not provide sufficient support for severe overpronation.

How durable is the gum camo sole?

The outsole is made from durable Continental Rubber, known for its longevity and grip. The gum color may show dirt more easily, but the material itself is robust.

Can I wear these for walking as well as running?

Yes, the advanced cushioning and comfortable fit make them excellent for everyday walking and casual wear in addition to running.

What is the difference between Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA and other Ultra Boost models?

The 'DNA' designation often signifies models that reinterpret classic designs with modern materials and technologies. The 1.0 DNA specifically draws from the original Ultra Boost 1.0 aesthetic.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. Your heel should feel secure and not slip during movement. Consider trying them on at the end of the day when feet may be slightly swollen.

Troubleshooting

Slight discomfort on first wear

The PRIMEKNIT upper may require a short break-in period to fully conform to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While the Continental Rubber offers good grip, extremely wet conditions can reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is free from excessive mud or debris.

Slight creasing in the midsole

Creasing in the Boost midsole is a normal characteristic of the material over time and does not typically affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: Designed as a running shoe, it is compatible with most running terrains. It is suitable for neutral runners.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the PRIMEKNIT upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe down the Boost midsole and Continental Rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt on the outsole, a soft brush can be used.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or tumble drying, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if necessary. Machine wash laces in a mesh bag or hand wash them.
