FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Boost technology in these shoes?
The Boost technology provides highly responsive cushioning, absorbing impact from each foot strike and returning energy, which enhances comfort and performance during runs.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
The Continental Rubber outsole offers good grip on various surfaces, making them suitable for light trails. However, they are primarily designed for road running and may lack the aggressive tread of dedicated trail shoes.
How do I clean the camouflage sole?
The camouflage sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure it is dry before wearing.
What does '1.0 DNA' signify in the product name?
The 'DNA' designation often indicates that the shoe is an updated or re-imagined version of a classic model, incorporating modern technology and design elements while retaining the essence of the original.
Is the PRIMEKNIT upper waterproof?
The PRIMEKNIT upper is designed for breathability and flexibility, not waterproofing. It will allow air to pass through but can absorb water in wet conditions.
What is the difference between this model and the original Ultra Boost?
The Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA is an updated iteration. It often features contemporary design updates and may use slightly different material combinations while retaining the core Boost cushioning system.
Can I wear these trainers for casual use?
Yes, the stylish design and comfortable Boost cushioning make them suitable for casual wear, though they are optimized for running performance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are properly adjusted. PRIMEKNIT will stretch slightly over time. If persistently uncomfortable, consider trying a different size.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Clean the Continental Rubber outsole to remove any debris or mud that may be affecting grip. Ensure the rubber is not excessively worn.
Midsole cushioning feels less responsive over time
Boost technology is designed for durability, but performance may slightly decrease after extensive use. Proper care and avoiding extreme conditions can help prolong responsiveness.
Upper material shows signs of wear
Clean gently as per care instructions. Avoid abrasive materials or excessive force when cleaning. Leather overlays can be treated with appropriate leather care products.

Care Instructions:
