Deceiving images are not representing the color of the shoe accurately. Besides the color discrepancies, the fit is off for me. Toe box is narrow. Overall, I'm disappointed with this ultraboost model. The market is saturated with alternatives and there are much better fitting and performing shoes in this price range.
Excellent shoes. I bought them for long walks, for training, or just for visiting places that require walking long distances. They're great. Very comfortable and very light. They fit just right, but if you want a little more mileage, go up a half size. It depends on your intended use.
This are the most fitted and comfortable shoes I ever purchased. Also for the price the quality is not there. The three stripes are already coming of ( three weeks wearing them). The black colour of the outside sole is peeling off
Just two months of wear and these things are falling apart at the bottom like crazy. I've never seen shoes break down this quickly before in my life and I didn't notice how bad it was until today. I don't even do anything intense of them. I just do a lot of walking and moving around at my retail job. Unacceptable given the price these things are. It's a shame cuz the shoe itself is super comfortable but these won't last that long if this is happening already.
Really disappointed in the quality of these shoes. Peeling paint on sole, bottom of shoe delaminating from the sole. They also aren't that comfortable, they're loose on the foot and don't have a good planted feel on the ground.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second time I purchase these shoes; but after almost 2 months of wearing them to his teaching job in Los Angeles, my husband noticed that the black sole was turning white. The color of the sides of the bottom of his tennis shoes were flaking off. I am very surprised and let down by this. Adidas is a brand that I want to trust. These are his work shoes and they were new and I had paid alot of money for them. We aren't in a financial situation to simply replace them. He tried coloring them with permanent marker- but it immediately flaked off as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fit, style, and comfort. Unfortunately after just two weeks of wear the insole of my left shoe started slipping to the point where it would reach my ankle. So every 5 minutes I had to stop and adjust the insole. Unfortunately I'm now overseas on assigment which makes it burdensome to return/exchange the product. I'll need to find a hack to fix the issue or buy another pair of shoes. I was surprised and dissapointed given I had never experienced quality issues with Adidas products in the past.
They may be the most comfortable pair of shoes I've purchased, but they are ruined. They are unbelievably cheaply made for the price. Within 2 months the cheap foam sides of the soles have flaked off in massive chunks. Leaving obvious pure white on my shoes that are meant to be all black. I'll never buy from adidas ever again. Do not buy these if you intend to actually wear them to do literally anything as they will fall apart immediately.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shoes for my husband, and he absolutely loved them. They’re incredibly comfortable, lightweight, and have a sleek color. My dad also loves them and ended up buying a second pair! The only thing we kinda dislike is the brand imprint on the sole faded so quick. My husband wore two times but the letters already came off.
While the footwear is exceptionally comfortable, the black coating on the front began to peel after three months of use, which has significantly compromised the aesthetic quality.
