Not really into sneakers but thought I'd get one pair for more casual days. Ended up getting a pair of Superstars and a Boost last month.
I have to say the Boost is incredibly comfortable, I'm very impressed with it.

I didn't know there's a Sneaker thread rclxms.gif

Here're some Reebok x Boost purchases the last few weeks. Really liking the instapump and boost on these, best of both for comfort.
I really enjoyed running in the SoleFury Boost, so much so I bought 3 pairs. The ride is so comfy and I felt I could continue running after reaching my daily limit.

how much are these and where do you buy them ?
*
I got them off the Reebok website but I'm in the UK. However the Instapumps Boost are now out of stock as of last week, most likely discontinued now. Glad I managed to get them in my size. Prices do vary for each one, some were from 30%-50% off for the summer sale. Prices has gone back up for the solefury now to about £90. The Instapumps were about £80 to £100 depending on model.

Bought a few more pairs of trainers this month. After running in the Reebok x Boost and loving it. Thought I'd get a pair UB to try on as well and I got carried away a bit.
I couldn't decide with so many colourways but I love the blue/purple hues.

I had to go half a size larger for the UB4.0 and DNA whereas the UB20 fits perfectly.

My favourite pair so far from the 5th Anniversary Pack. In fact I bought an extra pair of UB DNA in case this one wears prematurely from running tongue.gif doh.gif
I would have done the same for the UB20 too but it's the last pair that I could find.

I'm still unsure of the grey colourway with the iridescent heel cup. It can get a bit too sparkly when it's under bright sunlight.

Picked up a few more Ultraboost this month, couldn't resist some of the colourways.

user posted image

I like the DNA so much, I decided to cop an extra pair as I know I would wear the current pair down in my runs.

user posted image

This is perhaps one of my favourite colourways, it's so bright and outrageous but yet still pretty fun for the weekends and noticeable for urban runs. Safety first biggrin.gif

user posted image

Another new release with some materials made from ocean parley. The midsole is sometimes salmon pink to a golden hue.

user posted image

Cop a black ISS whilst I'm at it too.

Ultra4D! My latest cop biggrin.gif
I find it comfortable contrary to what most youtubers are reviewing atm. Perhaps it's on the basis of 'squishiness' like the ultraboost? It's a decent outsole and I could totally wear this the whole day.
The upper is soft and stretchy, it doesn't constrict my foot at all. Overall a very happy purchase.

adidas run out of ideas ??? looks similar like ultra boost just the sole change

very true, it's the same upper as the OG 1.0. I missed out on the first release so I'm happy to have it now smile.gif I do like the look of the 4D soles so win win for me.
Doubt there's much innovation with boost except with different colourways.

Decided to get some extra pairs in case I wear through them laugh.gif

and added the 4D run too. Think I would be running with these. Surprisingly it doesn't feel that heavy on foot. It'll be a pain to clean though but I think hosing them down should do.

Damn, that looks sweet! From where did you cop these?

Edit: nvm I just saw the above replies. my bad. How much did you pay for them though? O.o
*
I wished it was too, but the release for us here in UK is through the App only.
Pricing varied a bit for me depending on the reseller. I paid roughly about £230 (RM1262) over RRP of RM1100. So it isn't bad, and luckily it hasn't been overhyped. It does look pretty badass.

The UB DNA was purchase on the adidas site, but it's been discontinued now. Glad I got that too, it was a sleeper.

Here's another shot smile.gif

please give us some update if u happens wear it in the gym or outdoor run? not sure about the 4D sole its durable as the standard boost..

Will definitely do so. I doubt it would be as durable due to the smaller nubs on the 4Ds but only time would tell.

Won a raffle on the Adidas app and these came today
Bape x Undefeated x Adidas ZX 8000

I wasn't quite sure from the pictures initially but I do quite like it in person.

Ah yes I saw those, I liked the SNS ones and wouldn't mind Social Status too. But they sold out real quick. No chance of getting a pair without paying stupid money for it
