FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Ultraboost 1.0 offers excellent cushioning and energy return, making them suitable for many runners. However, for elite or professional marathoners, specific marathon racing shoes might offer a more specialized performance profile. For dedicated amateur runners, they are a very strong choice for long-distance training and racing.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Please refer to the product description for the specific UK size. When your shoes arrive, check the box or label for US or European sizing and compare it to the UK sizing guide provided by adidas or the retailer.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The PRIMEKNIT upper is breathable but not waterproof. The rubber outsole provides good traction, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in feet getting wet. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions.
What is the main benefit of the BOOST technology?
BOOST technology provides exceptional energy return and cushioning. It absorbs impact and then springs back, helping to reduce fatigue and make your run or walk feel more comfortable and responsive.
How does the use of Parley Ocean Plastic affect the shoe?
Using Parley Ocean Plastic means the shoe incorporates recycled materials, contributing to sustainability efforts. This does not compromise the performance or comfort of the shoe.
Are these trainers durable for everyday use?
Yes, the combination of the durable rubber sole, supportive Fitcounter heel, and robust upper materials makes the Ultraboost 1.0 suitable for regular daily wear and sporty activities.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect upon arrival
Please double-check the size conversion on the box or label against your UK size. If a discrepancy leads to an incorrect fit, consult the retailer's return policy for exchanges.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Ensure the shoes are not being overexposed to heat. Clean the shoes as per care instructions. While BOOST technology is durable, extreme conditions can affect its performance.
Slipping sensation in the heel
Ensure the laces are properly tied to secure the midfoot. The molded Fitcounter heel is designed for support; if slipping persists, consider trying a different lacing technique or checking if a half-size smaller might be more appropriate.
Upper material feels loose or less supportive
The PRIMEKNIT upper is designed for a flexible, sock-like fit. Ensure the laces are snugged appropriately to provide the desired level of support. If the material appears damaged, assess for wear and tear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Upon receiving your Ultraboost 1.0, it is recommended to try them on to ensure the correct fit. Pay attention to the UK sizing, as the box or label may display US or European sizes which differ.
Compatibility: The Ultraboost 1.0 is designed primarily for road running and sporty leisure activities. While the durable sole offers good traction, they are not intended for highly technical trails or extreme weather conditions.
Care: To maintain the look and performance of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean the PRIMEKNIT and synthetic materials. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Cleaning the Sole: Remove any dirt or debris from the rubber sole. A damp cloth is usually sufficient. For tougher grime, a soft brush can be used.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can degrade the cushioning and structural integrity.
