FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Ultraboost Light generally fits true to size, though runners often prefer a half-size larger for long-distance runs to accommodate foot swelling.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are designed primarily for road running. The outsole lacks the deep lugs required for technical trail terrain.
How long should the cushioning last?
The midsole foam typically maintains its responsiveness for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running gait and surface.
Are they machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials and the adhesive bonds.
What is the primary difference between these and standard Ultraboosts?
The 'Light' series focuses specifically on reducing the total weight of the foam cushioning while maintaining the signature energy return.
Troubleshooting
Foot slippage inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing technique to a runner's knot to secure the heel area more firmly.
Visible dirt on the white surface
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the affected areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, verify your sizing against the UK 8.5 standard if using this specific pair. Before your first run, ensure the laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot to avoid pressure points. For maintenance, it is recommended to spot-clean the upper with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the integrity of the foam and adhesives. Remove the insoles occasionally to air them out, which helps manage moisture build-up.
