Kicks and Ticks

Like what was previously said...go true to size or 1/2 size up as most of these kicks have PK which will stretch through time. I put the stretch shoe trees from Ikea which keeps shoes stretched and always go true to size. UB1.0’s fit more tighter then the 2.0’s, 3.0’s, 4.0’s. So yeah go to sneaker store and try them on.

Thanks guys. That was not what I was hoping to hear.

I went to the mall yesterday and didn't see any ultra boosts in my size I think they all sell out pretty quickly. I went to Nordstrom, Foot Locker, Champs...

I may have to roll the dice and buy without trying on.

Good thing most sites have free return policy. I would buy directly from Adidas if they have the colorways you like. But footsites are also good.

Thanks, I think I'll do that. I see some new colors are coming out on Feb 1. Do these things sell out as quickly as Yeezys? Do I need to be hitting refresh at midnight in order to get a pair?

I seriously don't know anything about sneakers lol...

Honestly it depends on the colorway and how hyped they are. Most UB don't sell out quickly with exception of a few.

Anyone know the sneaker Federer wore at the awards presentation at the Australian Open? Looked like a flyknit trainer in a new colorway I haven’t seen before.

That is correct. Lately all his shoes that Nike has been releasing are selling out fast now.

Sucks. Here in Miami all footsites stores have them on shelves full size run. I recommend ordering from adidas. Free returns so that helps.

I just ordered a pair in my size and 1/2 size up. I'll just keep the pair that fits better.

Exactly. Adidas gives you free returns for 30 days. No worries. Keep us posted on results.

Great pick up. Nothing like the UB 1.0’s. Glad you finally copped them.

Sneaker experts... my 12 yo son found a pair of Adidas Yeezy 350 on some site called “DHgate” for $65. He says they’re selling online for as much as $700. My wife lets him order them with his allowance money. They ship from China.

Got here over the weekend, and he has viewed videos that purport to teach how to identify counterfeit/fake shoes. These supposedly pass the authenticity tests.

I know nothing about the collectible sneaker market. Is it likely he found a good deal / overstock somewhere, or is it more likely these are just good fakes?

Thanks!

No problem, I linked the article because DHGate is mentioned specifically.

Got my ultraboosts today. I ordered a 12 and a 12.5. Surprisingly, both fit pretty well. The 12s didn't feel overly tight. If I didn't order the 12.5s, I probably would have kept the 12s thinking that they were the right size for me. I'm keeping the 12.5s just because they're a touch roomier.

Initial impressions are very good. The shoes feel great and are very comfortable. I'll be at an amusement park all day tomorrow so I'll really be putting them to the test.

You will be just as comfortable at the end of the day... they are the only shoes I will wear to theme parks anymore.

They should have been $20 cheaper. The grey colored stripes + 3M, I had to get them. I like the touch of yellow also.

1.0’s are the best though, I agree.

I passed on these. Prepping up for all Jays this month. And you know my motto “1.0’s will forever be the best”

HaHaHaHaHaH good luck with that. Remember what I told you. I picked these up on sale at footlocker. Last pair. My size. Broken box. $112.50 after VIP $20 off coupon. Yes this was before the UB hype.
