FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
They generally fit true to size, but the performance fit is snug. If you prefer a roomier feel, consider sizing up by a half size.
Can these be used for long-distance running?
Yes, the UltraBoost series is specifically engineered for distance comfort and energy return.
How do I maintain the black fabric color?
Avoid direct sunlight and harsh chemicals, which can cause the fabric to fade over time.
Are these suitable for all-day wear?
The responsive cushioning makes them ideal for individuals who are on their feet for long periods.
Do these shoes work for wide feet?
The snug design may feel tight for wide feet; however, the material does have some natural stretch.
Is the insole removable?
The included insole is generally intended to stay in place, but can be removed if you need to use your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the lacing system completely and re-thread to allow for more volume in the upper.
Midsole appearing dirty
Use a specialized sneaker foam cleaner and a soft sponge to gently scrub the midsole edges.
Heel slippage
Ensure the laces are secured using the top eyelet (runner's knot) to lock the heel in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your UltraBoost trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks during your first fitting to correctly gauge the snugness of the upper.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleans, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in a washing machine, which can damage the midsole foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the midsole foam from degrading or the fabric colors from fading.
- Rotation: Allow the shoes to air out for 24 hours between heavy usage days to help the cushioning material regain its shape and structure.
