The Ultraboost is undisputedly one of the best, most successful, and prolific sneaker styles of all time. Jemuel Wong Instagrammer from Sydney, Australia You can also wash your Ultraboosts in the washing machine, but make sure to put them in a shoe bag first so you don’t destroy the uppers. If they get really really dirty, I’ll use the Crep Protect Cleaning Kit to get them clean again. I use Crep Protect for protection, it’s the best. The uppers of the Ultraboost are really durable but they’ll need some care if you want to have fun in them for a long time. It’s definitely one of the best sneakers for daily life. The Ultraboost is the definition of comfort I know big sneakerheads and people who normally only wear other sneaker brands, but they all have the same opinion on this silhouette. I’m the same size in Ultraboosts as I am in Air Jordan 1s, but in Air Force 1s (which fit bigger in my opinion) I take a half-size down. The 1.0 and 2.0 uppers are a bit tighter than 3.0 and 4.0, but it’s not a big difference. I would say the Adidas Ultraboost fit true to size but it depends on the upper. I feel like every sneakerhead dresses in the same way. When I wear Ultraboosts, I select my preferred colorway first, then I’ll coordinate my clothes around it. Since I’m back at work after quarantine, I’m dressed classically in light grey Chino pants, a white T-shirt, flannel shirt, and brown coat. Today I’ve got the newly re-released Ultraboost 1.0 “Triple White” on my feet. The Adidas Ultraboosts were one of the first pairs of sneakers that made me think, ‘I want these so bad.’ With its lightweight uppers and comfortable Boost sole, it’s a sneaker I wear every day no matter what I’m doing. Tobias Platzer photographer and Instagrammer from Cologne, Germany So we asked a few of the world’s foremost experts to give you the lowdown on Ultraboost sizing, fit, and styling. But while there are several different Primeknit patterns, uncaged configurations, and even eco-friendly ‘Parley For The Oceans’ constructions to choose from, each comes with its own unique sizing. Now, five years and at least seven iterations later, the adidas Ultraboost is still going strong. Through co-signs from Kanye West and collaborations with some of the world’s coolest fashion brands, its street cred quickly skyrocketed too. The perfect marriage of adidas’ leading technologies – Primeknit knitted uppers, Torsion, and of course Boost – alongside a durable Continental (of car tire manufacturer fame) rubber outsole, the Ultraboost quickly gained notoriety as the most comfortable shoe on the market, with its sock-like fit and all-day comfort. In January 2015, the Trefoil would bring Boost technology to the lifestyle market with a shoe dubbed as ‘the best running shoe ever’.

Made of hundreds of TPU ‘energy capsule’ pellets compressed together, the resulting sole generated 20% more energy return compared to those made of rubber, and its responsive and cushioned feel made it an instant hit with runners. Designed using NASA technology, and honed to perfection with the help of motion-capture technology and a few of adidas’ top athletes as wear testers, Boost combined innovation with performance. In 2013, adidas finally broke decades of Nike hegemony with their rival to the Swoosh’s legendary Air sole technology: Boost.
