Couldn't quite believe my eyes but Adidas Indonesia were actually stocking 3M and Wool Grey Ultra Boosts. In hand and on feet these look bloody awesome.

Only problem was the price. Indonesian retail is around 10 to 20 percent more than Malaysian retail.

Do the Ltd Ultra Boosts come to Malaysia? Might want to hunt them down when I'm back home.

Wanted to man, but a bit too expensive.

It was IDR3 million per pair which works out to around RM900. Quite hard to justify especially after seeing it on Adidas Malaysia on-line for around RM720+ just a few months ago.

They were just sitting there (for my size at least) so I'm hoping against odds that it'll go on discount sometime in the future.

By the way, the boost material is quite fragile it seems and I've had a few bits/nubs(?) fall off because of accidentally kicking the door/bang stroller etc. I guess that's the price you pay for the material being so soft and comfortable.

I'm not too pleased with the shipping. It's about 41usd in total because of shipping charges and import tax.

Ebay has a global shipping program now whereby the seller sends your purchased goods to an eBay warehouse for them to ship out to you.

Took over a week to reach me with no proper tracking. For 41usd... To me, it sucks balls.

Yeah it's a core black... I don't like the other cw except for the newer mystery grey but that's quite hard to cop unless you pay much more than retail which I have no intention of!

Durability issues not a problem for me as I rotate my shoes so I probably wear my UB once a week? Or less?

Yes I'm crazy.

Bro

mind sharing which courier the ebay global shipping program utilize?

How often does Adidas Malaysia restock their Grey Wool/Metallic Ultraboost and is it worth buying them from Ebay for at least $250(excluding shipping) or should I just buy them from local reseller?

Yup, the white thing especially on the sides. Not too concerned as it's barely noticeable but just thought I'd point that out here. If you're wearing UB's, you might want to avoid kicking people/objects/etc.

The boost at the sole is still doing fine by the way.

You and me both man. I remove the in-sole if I wear thick socks. I'm probably going to try a full size up before I buy my next pair.

The Boost shoe is the only shoe I own that is still super comfortable without an in-sole.

I've seen it on-line only once (a month or two ago) and so far they've not restocked ever since.

If you know anyone in Jakarta, you can get their help to get you a pair from Adidas there.

Is the one in Jakarta available online? Unfortunately I don't have anyone living there atm. I do have a brother living in the US though, so I might be able to buy one there but the price is quite steep at $240~250.

Well, it's IDR3.0 million here so works out to around USD230 per pair. Not that big of a difference.

The 3M's are worth it though as resellers are charging upwards of USD300 per pair.

I'm actually tempted to buy and resell in Malaysia tongue.gif
