it will be standard retail, RM 650 for standard general release, RM 780(or was it RM 750) for LTD release.

ultra boost and pure boost is prolly the most comfortable shoe i had ever worn in my life.

i have gone through a couple pair of AM 1, AM 90, Air Force 1, Jordans, some lunar trainer.

nothing can ever come close to ultra boost or pure boost, this thing is mind blowing good. Roshe is actually good when they retail at 200 ish a lot of years ago.

pure boost is more of a chill shoe like a roshe run, very comfortable. A lot of Y3 boost use the similar midsole.

If u want a stable, lock down feel ultra boost is the way to go.

as what r3kahsttub had mention,

i too came for a time when AF was huge, i still remember my first pair of Mid AF1's, the mid top white/carolina blue(the blue on the toe box) at 2003. Didn't know there is knowledge in storing shoe back then, the mid sole yellowed terribly. They are now sitting in a plastic container in a cool dry no sun light place. Funnily at 2016, mid sole is still solid, the leather is still soft.

then it slow down and SB's is what everybody want. I still remember the days where people camp to cop a pair at Showroom, Miz 29 and then Zone 5 at Sungai Wang. The queue for Tiffany and Hawaii is all i can remember.

Streething is one of the major local forum to get shoe back then.

Jordan is always sitting on shelf and only the true sneaker head buy them. The 3's and 4's when start retro-ed again on 13 or was it 12, they sit on shelf for 2-3 weeks plus before gone. Then suddenly it become all will kena sapu on release day. They looked great, but very uncomfortable for me. Luckily i sold those Jordan. Good luck to anyone that still have a pair that is more then 2 years old.

And then suddenly the Huarache caught on with the main stream crowd for a while, cant understand that. Now it is all adidas.

These days it is wiser to avoid any Nike with Air unit inside. The quality is horrible. I still remember the first time i open up a shoe box to be greeted with midsole which will turn to powder upon touching.

For old people like me, very comfortable runner is all i need now. The boost and tubular line do look very interesting.

Air Presto is all right, use to have em when they sell the orang/light blue/black white pair. I size up to L or what i cant rmb, bigger so that it doesnt hold my feet too tight. Outsole feels like a regular midsole with air.

NMD i dont understand why everybody go crazy on them. Tried a friends pair in my size which he had worn a few times, it is stiffer than ultra boost and pure boost.

Ultra boost, prolly the best and the most comfy feet i had ever wear.

Pure boost 2.0, more like a pair of roshe with a very responsive midsole, like roshe, the upper of the shoe doesnt offer much of a "feet stability" if compare to ultra boost. But it still comes close to ultra boost in terms of mid sole comfort. Pure boost 1.0 the ankle part and tongue is not comfortable when u wear extended period it is sharp and poke your feet, again people is going crazy over here for the black and white PB 1.0 i dont know why. FYI, a few Y3 boost model use mid sole from pure boost.

ultraboost is more like a tech shoe for sports man, hence the increase feet stability. PB and NMD is more of a lifestyle shoe with more emphasis on looking good. Energyboost is more pure in terms of sports, it is a great shoe for running with a very good support, mid sole performance wise ultraboost feels more responsive.

are they still comfortable after a extended 12-15 hour walk on them, NO. But the boost's comfort feel is so much better than mid sole with AIR unit in that given time frame.

* Buy the pair with full length boost sole, PB is a great choice if you are on a budget and want to see whats the fuss is boost all about.

i am US10 on superstar, with some tiny space up front.

US10 UB is impossible.

US 10.5 UB works out well on me, with some tiny space up front.

i have a pair of UB, pure boost, energy boost and NMD.

I will rank comfort level

1. UB
2. energy boost
3. PB
4. NMD

I cop my mesh NMD from a favor of a EU friend, he casually walk into a store and cop without much fuss. So i am not sure if the mesh model did hit the retail store here.

boost on NMD just felt slightly unresponsive despite the thick boost, prolly bekos of the lego. You can feel they are less responsive then the other shoe by just squeezing the boost midsole. Add to the fact that the sizing is off. All of my boost shoe is perfect on US 10.5. My NMD on US10.5 felt a bit snug up front, i can feel the tip of the shoe. Wearable but annoying bekos i prefer my runners to have some tiny small space on the toe box.

But not annoying like when u accidentally size down .5 on a pair of most nike and u know you are fucuked.

lol

and i thought the tubular was the poorman's Y3.

The midsole is from the pureboost, so yeah these are technically pure boost with a different upper.

on the Koston, is it tight or you still have space ?

i am US 10.5 on all Nike, and most boost model i bought is the same US 10.5 and they fit well with just the right space for your toe to wiggle comfortably.

only on NMD, it is different. I need US 11 on NMD to feel like i am wearing a pair of US 10.5 air max.

i suggest you go to a store and try out any pair of shoe with the pure boost outsole ( i.e rocket boost) , before u cop a pair online.

i am with you on this one.

it is one of the most uncomfortable shoe i had ever worn.

gave it a chance to break in but still sold after 5-6 wear

you need a very solid contacts of store manager, or even better relationship into the office itself if want high chance of getting a W on a pair of shoe like Yeezy.

Money involve for a pair is too damn high.

A lot of pair had been back door
