    adidas ULTRABOOST 22 Initial Review | EDDBUD
    A new release from Adidas, i have tried many boost shoes out and do like the specific use case they offer for impact protection and stability.
    This new version is no different but comes with a new improved upper and the same dense yet forgiving midsole foam and outsole grip.
    I took these out for an initial 8 mile or 13km run to give you my thoughts on this cushioned cruiser.
    Are you a fan of boost or have you left it behind? Many runners enjoy the stability and resilience it provides over lots of miles.
    Could suit some runners after a more stable ride, smooth as silk on the transition and a real gem from that perspective.

    Edd what separates you from other unmentioned reviewers is that you will actually show the positives of a shoe and who it could be a good fit for rather than just going on as to why it’s not as good as the some super shoe which is my pet peeve.
    While this shoe wouldn’t work for me personally it’s good to know who it would work for what positives there are for the shoe. 👍

    I like Boost, but just can’t get on with the lack of cushion in the forefoot. If they increased the stack at front, or simply lowered the drop, I’d potentially be interested in UB for easy long runs.

    Great upload.
    The lace “cage” changes seem to be athleticomfort related. Interesting. The upper changes are smart… no more tongue rollover with the name padded tab, and it’s good to see stretch improvements to the recycled materials. I belief this is the “green” version of pk 360 debuted on UB19.
    I still see people running in UB and SolarBoost. Credit to adidas for not completely abandoning the midsole magic stuff.
    Relatively small tweaks as was the case between’19 and ‘20.
    I’ll try it when I can pick them up at a deep discount.

    Addidas are still pitching the 21’s at $180 in the US and they don’t seem to be moving very many at that cost. As for rock Christmas tunes , you can’t beat the Eagles cover of the Charles Brown classic , “Please Come Home For Christmas “ . The chord progression that Walsh lays down is only bettered by the subtle yet very musical solo that he shakes loose from his Telecaster. Took me ages to figured out those chords!

    Thanks Edd! Your the best. I think i’ll give those 22 a try. I bought a pair of invincible run this summer, but they’re too soft and felt a bit unstable for my longer runs. My preference is shoes with closer contact to the ground, and not so much cushion. Do you have any suggestions to shoes with more ground feeling for longer distance? My favourite shoes are Nike epic react and adidas Boston 9. Training to run my first half marathon distance, and my long runs is about 13 km at the moment 😄

    • @EDDBUD

    I had been wanting to try this shoe for a long time. Even though just by looking at the shoe with its bulbus heel with the huge quantity of midsole material and plastic, the plastic midfoot cage and the weight, I heard so many good things about the boost material I gave them a shot. First off, I could not understand the design, the shoe is designed to have the runner hit the forefoot and that being the case, why did they load up the boost material on the heel (aesthetically speaking I think it looks weird) so much? The other item was the boost material itself. I found it very, uneventful. Not remarkable and not terrible but just ehhh, ok. For the price of the shoe 189 dollars US, I decided to return them. I could find nothing about this shoe that would redeem the cost of the shoe. I could find similar rides in several shoes under 100 dollars. I did hear two things about this model and perhaps thats why my first and only experience with boost was non-eventful. 1. That the recipe for the boost material in the model 22 was different (just my luck) than previous recipes. That it was a boost version that would deliver a firmer ride. 2. That this shoe was designed deliberatly by an all female engineering team. A shoe for women that was engineered by women catering to specific female needs. So Im not sure if either of those two things are true, but would explain a lot of why my first boost experience fell short.

      Are they? The average consumer perusing the Adidas website wouldn’t know this. Point is the adidas website advertised then as running shoes and they are equivalently priced as the Peg Turbos when Nike were still making the Peg Turbo’s. So yes, comparisons are possible. The fact that a small percent of runners have interval periods and slow days and race days with specific shoes worn for such specific occasions is not the norm. Most folk just go run a certain distance on a daily or weekly basis. So they are comparable. On that basis, the Ultraboost fail completely, at least as far as I am concerned.
