FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Boost midsole offers excellent cushioning and energy return, making them suitable for long-distance running. However, personal preference for cushioning and support plays a significant role.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas or the retailer. Generally, UK shoe sizes are marked clearly on the product information.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the main difference between the Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA and other Ultra Boost models?

The 1.0 DNA series often features updated designs and colorways based on the original Ultra Boost 1.0, maintaining the core Boost technology while offering a fresh aesthetic.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides reliable traction for both running and everyday wear, offering good resistance to abrasion.

Is this shoe good for wide feet?

The PrimeKnit upper offers a degree of flexibility. While not specifically designed for wide feet, many users find the adaptive nature of the knit comfortable. If you have very wide feet, it's advisable to try them on if possible.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-tie them, ensuring a comfortable fit. The PrimeKnit upper will also stretch slightly with wear.

Dirt on PrimeKnit upper

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a mild soap. Blot gently and allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning over time

While Boost technology is durable, consistent heavy use may lead to some compression. Ensure you are cleaning the shoes regularly, as dirt can sometimes affect perceived performance.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but care should be taken on extremely wet or slick surfaces, as with any footwear.
