I have been running in Ultra Boosts for 5 years and thank you Addidas for making each new version better. I have no cartilage in my left knee and was about to give up running. Then -- thanks to my local RoadRunner Sports store -- I was introduced to the shoe. It fits like a glove. It is neutral, with great fore-foot flex. While it is light it has have great cushion on hard surfaces and better than great on soft surfaces. The ride is easy and lets me find my stride where I can run without further knee injury. I finish my runs with no knee pain or swelling. They wear well; I get good mileage from them and I have regained my joy in running. Is it any wonder why I love these shoes!

For my foot type this shoe is a really good fit. While being on the heavy side, the energy return balances out the weight. I actually like the extra weight for a every day training shoe as it helps to strengthen while the boost provides a comfortable ride. While some have complained about getting a good lockdown in the shoe for my foot type it has not been a problem. I wear a 11.5 and found they run true to size. Definitely getting another pair before ultra boost is phased out. For me a great shoe.

Just ordered a second pair. Running 25 years have had all brands and models of shoes. I wasn't sure how well these would work for running and thought they might not breathe well, but bought a pair anyway because they fit my feet like a glove. I am rotating these with Asics Gel Kayano 24, Brooks Levitate and Ghost 10, but find myself going back to the Adidas for most runs. Why? Dynamite and responsive cushioning for me (5'10", 145lbs.), I don't need a structured or motion control shoe and these seem to work well with my stride and foot strike. My feet stay cool and dry enough also. But even more, I find myself extending my runs in these many days because these feel so easy to run in. Not sure if it is the Ultra Boost material or the fit or what, but sometimes we find ... MoreJust ordered a second pair. Running 25 years have had all brands and models of shoes.

My feet stay cool and dry enough also. But even more, I find myself extending my runs in these many days because these feel so easy to run in. Not sure if it is the Ultra Boost material or the fit or what, but sometimes we find shoes that just work really well for us. They do seem a little heavier than my Gel Kayano or Ghost 10, but I think the Levitate may be slightly heavier than the Adidas. In any event my running pace for my routes (per GPS watch) is just as good or better than the other shoes with less perceived effort, so the additional weight if any doesn't slow me down. I do also notice my runs feel easier and with less effort than the other shoes for the same pace per mile. These are also really quiet when running compared to the Gel Kayano. The only issue is after just 75 miles the outside edges of the heels are wearing some (no matter they are slightly tapered), but all my shoes wear like that, so I use shoe goo. The rest of the soles look nearly new. I think manufacturers should bevel the back outside edges of the heels on running shoes as the normal foot-strike for lots of runners is that the outside rear edge of the heels hit the ground first and wears out pretty fast. There was an old shoe the Etonic Allegro that had the beveled heels that lasted as long as the rest of the shoe - that was a great idea, but I haven't seen it in any other shoes since then.
