Hes, for the very first time ever the other day, I tried on 3 competing max cushion running shoes that I've heard you praise most, at least in terms of being the most comfortable max cushion running shoes currently available today, and I was so surprised not by who the winner was, but by how easily of a choice it was! The following 3 shoes were the 3 I had my eyes on. • Asics Nimbus 25 • Nike Invincible Run 3 • Adidas Ultraboost Light As someone who over the last 10-12yrs has had a bit of an attraction /addiction to quality handmade leather boots, and I havent bought a single pair of shoes/boots from any other brand but Red Wing, whites, and the occasional pair of thorogood. So, although I grew up infatuated with Nike and Jordan's, and the occasional sneakers made by Adidas and even Asics from time to time, I feel as though I was rather unbiased when comparing the 3 shoes in my comparison. I honestly have to admit, that after watching your videos reviewing the invincible run 1 and invincible run 2, and just your enthusiasm for Zoom x, did the Nike invincible run 3 would have been the clear winner here. I'm disappointed about anything regarding this comparison, it is that I wasn't able to try on a pair New balance sneakers with fuel cell throughout the midsole, but unfortunately Dick's sporting goods did not have many New balance shoes at all, at least not at the particular location that I visited. Anyways, I was absolutely stunned that the Asics nimbus 25 was such a clear winner, and that the second place finisher was nowhere close to being as comfortable as the nimbus 25's were. The Nike invincible run 3s and the ultra boost lights were so inferior to the nimbus 25s, that I was not impressed enough by either of them, after being so amazed by the Asics, that the other two shoes left me completely uninspired, that I refuse to even waste my time awarding either pair 2nd or 3rd place. When the Asics nimbus 25s are so far in the lead in terms of comfortableness, that once you try them on, it had me viewing the price that Nike and Adidas are asking for their flagship running shoes, as a literal slap in the face. What asics has accomplished with its nimbus 25 sneaker, is to make Nike and Adidas appear as if they should be ashamed of themselves for asking such a high price for sneakers that are so inferior, that nobody who tries on a pair of nimbus 25's first, could seriously attempt to justify forking over their hard-earned money on the invincible run 3 or the ultra boost light.
Hope they bring back the 19s. Most comfortable in my opinion. Ultraboost light’s standing comfort is bad due to the stiffer boost. I hope the next versions don’t get bulkier
another great video! any chance you'll do a video of top 10 shoes you'd wear to disneyland / themeparks? debating if I should go with my UB light or get pair of 990v6
Best ultraboost in my opinion is still the ultraboost 1.0. Nothing beats that when it comes to casual wear and walking. The upper of the ultraboost 1.0 lets your feet breathe. Also i live in a tropical country where its much warmer so there’s that
Theyre also more narrow. My feet are pretty wide and fit good in normal ultraboosts, but the XPLR is def more narrow even after taking out the insole and going up half a size
I haven't bought a new pair of ultraboosts since the 20. But I think I'ma grab a pair of the lights. Just wondering if I'd stick to the same size as my 20's or not???? Great video!!!
I walk 5-10 miles a day at my job, depending on the day. The Ultraboost 20's are one of the few shoes that give me no foot pain by the end of the day. I did snag a pair of the Lights on Adidas for their black Friday sale. Couldn't pass up the $95 price tag there. But I think I'll probably buy another pair of the 20's on Stock X or something, too. I really love that shoe all around!!!!!!
@@kellybeth257 Im on my feet all day, wore a pair of 19s and two 20s down to the boost. I loved them, got a pair of DNA 1.0 and hated them, while comfortable and soft they just didn't have the performance fit or stability of constantly moving. The 22s were nice but the lites are miles better. Great if your staying on the move but if you plan on standing still for a long time go DNA. I just got a two more pairs of lites.
@@jamie3810 i actually just got a pair of DNA 1.0 yesterday at the mall. Only 60 bucks at the Dick's Warehouse store so I ain't mad. I'm wearing them for my shift at work today. So we'll see how it goes. :)
Usually a retailer like Hibbett or Champs will release the new version in December but in 1 or 2 colorways. They will sell out. Official launch is in Feb or March next year. I wouldn't expect too many changes, just slight tweaks from the current model.
While the Ultraboost Light is comfortable the boost has lousy durability! Chunks of the boost chip off regularly! My Goretex Ultraboost Light the black paint chips off almost everytime that I use it!
You'd have to hunt down Adidas shoes pre UB 4.0. Early 4.0's didn't have recycled materials but adidas kept that version long enough that the later ones did. Same goes for the later re-released 1.0's.
Adidas Ultraboost Light Now $$76! Retail $190, probably the best colorway on sale of adidas Ultraboost Light IMO bit.ly/3FXA3LS
I got the all white pair for $80 at the outlets 🙏🏽 and online they’re going for $156

I would rank the nimbus on top too
Thanks for watching! Many of the models I talk about are on sale right now as much as 50% Off! Link in description to adidas to see!
The goretex are great and are actually super easy to slip on and off
Hope they bring back the 19s. Most comfortable in my opinion. Ultraboost light’s standing comfort is bad due to the stiffer boost. I hope the next versions don’t get bulkier
I loved my 20s. Definitely need a ongoing DNA of them.
That yohji pair is sick! Are they as breathable and good for walking and standing as 1.0?
Yes IMO!
Does the cold rdy good for summer ?!

Are you willing to sell the size 9’s? I would be interested.
What us the diffrence
( web boost vs ultra boost )?
1:44 ribbed and stuff... i like that
What about the Heat Ready version?
That’s the UB22 the UBlight is 23
How about x_plr boost ? Worth buying over this at the same price in India ?
X_plr is softer but bulkier
Theyre also more narrow. My feet are pretty wide and fit good in normal ultraboosts, but the XPLR is def more narrow even after taking out the insole and going up half a size
@@10Squirrelmaster xplr narrow? you crazy dude, xplr 100% better are confortable as hell!!!
get the xplr boost trust me, very confortable and good price for holidays
Thank you all for your responses.. ordered xplr boost 😀 this is going to be my first boost experience.
Copped a pair of ultra boost light at outlets for $80!
There is also a heat ready version
Really? What is it called?
I haven't bought a new pair of ultraboosts since the 20. But I think I'ma grab a pair of the lights. Just wondering if I'd stick to the same size as my 20's or not???? Great video!!!
Same size. 20s were great, the lights are more of a glove fit.
The 20 is way more comfortable if you want lifestyle shoe. Ultraboost light is better for gym and running but some find it tight for day to day use

@Hes Kicks
You gotta review the Asics NovaBlast 4!!!
when will be the release of 2024 version? thinking of buying this but thinking the newer version might come out any time now.🤔
just get the xplr boost very confortable and nice quality and does not look bulky like these one
Usually a retailer like Hibbett or Champs will release the new version in December but in 1 or 2 colorways. They will sell out. Official launch is in Feb or March next year. I wouldn't expect too many changes, just slight tweaks from the current model.
The parley are by far the most comfortable
UB 20 are better for me.
Why is there a thread hanging out of the Y-3? if thats a design choice that is so ugly lol
While the Ultraboost Light is comfortable the boost has lousy durability! Chunks of the boost chip off regularly! My Goretex Ultraboost Light the black paint chips off almost everytime that I use it!
Is it at all possible to buy an Adidas shoe with no recycled materials in it? I might be willing to pay double for one which fits this description.

What's wrong with recycled materials?
Goretex forever
nah I'm done with buttcheek design after 3 years straight. the boston 12 is only thing this company has to offer at the moment
@@neutralfrere7663 not if you compare the price, xplr boost is the best option for the price specially for holidays discounts
are they wide foot friendly? thinking on buying the bostons
the bostons are not wide foot friendly ^^
The Boston upper is NOT flexible
Gl with wide feet
