FAQs

What makes the BOOST midsole special?

The BOOST midsole is made of thousands of energy-returning capsules that store and release energy with every step, providing superior cushioning and responsiveness compared to traditional EVA foam.

Is the PRIMEKNIT upper durable?

Yes, the PRIMEKNIT upper is engineered for durability while maintaining its flexibility and breathable properties. Proper care will extend its lifespan.

Can I use these for serious running or marathons?

While they offer excellent cushioning for shorter runs and daily wear, dedicated performance running shoes might be preferred for marathon training or competitive racing due to their specialized designs.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the PRIMEKNIT upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for heavy rain or wet conditions.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. The adaptive nature of the upper can accommodate slight variations, but a correct starting size is crucial for comfort.

What is the difference between Ultraboost 1.0 and other Ultraboost models?

The Ultraboost 1.0 is an original design known for its specific knit pattern and classic silhouette. Later models often feature updated knit technologies, midsole foams, and outsole designs for enhanced performance or aesthetics.

How often should I clean my Ultraboost 1.0 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after heavy use or exposure to dirt. Regular spot cleaning can help maintain their appearance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly, not too tight or too loose.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.

While the Continental™ Rubber offers good grip, always exercise caution on very slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.

Upper feels loose or less supportive.

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a more secure fit. The PRIMEKNIT upper is designed to be adaptive; ensure it's laced appropriately for your activity.
