FAQs
How do I determine my correct size?
Measure the length of your foot from the heel's most protruding point to the tip of the longest toe. Compare this measurement to the 'Foot Length' column in the size chart and select the corresponding EU size. If your measurement falls between two sizes, choose the larger one.
Are these shoes suitable for professional running?
While they feature Boost cushioning and a comfortable fit, the Y-3 Ultraboost 22 are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and light athletic activities, not for professional or high-intensity running.
How should I clean the white Primeknit material?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the Primeknit. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents to prevent damage.
What is the main difference between these and standard Ultraboost models?
The Y-3 collaboration brings unique design aesthetics and premium detailing by Yohji Yamamoto, merging high fashion with sportswear. Functionally, they share core Ultraboost technology.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
The Primeknit upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. Ensure they dry completely if they get wet.
What does 'Y-3' stand for?
Y-3 is a collaboration between Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas. The 'Y' represents Yamamoto, and '3' represents the three stripes of Adidas.
Is the sizing listed in UK or EU sizes?
The product description specifies that all products are priced and sold in European sizes (EU). The size chart provides EU, UK (as size_adult_foot_uk), US, and Foot Length (CM) conversions.
Troubleshooting
Sizing is incorrect
Consult the detailed size guide and measure your foot length carefully. If between sizes, opt for the larger size. Refer to the EU sizing as the primary guide.
Shoes feel too tight
The Primeknit upper is designed to stretch slightly over time. Wear them for short periods initially. Ensure laces are not over-tightened.
Slight color variation from expected
Color may vary slightly due to lighting during photography and individual monitor settings. Product descriptions aim for accuracy.
