FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the high level of cushioning in the Light BOOST foam is well-suited for high-mileage training.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent is the safest way to maintain the structural integrity of the upper and midsole.
Do these run true to size?
Most users find them to be true to size, though the sock-like fit means they may feel snugger than traditional mesh trainers.
What is the primary difference between this and the original Ultraboost?
The primary difference is the weight; the UltraBoost Light uses a new foam generation that is 30% lighter.
Are these trainers good for the gym?
They are excellent for cardio and light gym work, but may be too squishy for heavy powerlifting where a firmer, flat sole is preferred.
Troubleshooting
Upper material feels too tight over the instep
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure points.
Squeaking sound while walking
Remove the insole and ensure there is no trapped moisture or grit underneath it; allow to dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas UltraBoost Light trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the Primeknit+ upper feels snug but not restrictive; the material will slightly stretch to conform to your foot during the first few runs.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid machine washing, as it can damage the specialized foam midsole.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Never place trainers in a dryer or near a direct heat source, as high temperatures can compromise the bond between the outsole and the midsole.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
