FAQs
Are the adidas Ultraboost 20 true to size?

Yes, the Boost midsole provides excellent cushioning and energy return, making them well-suited for long-distance running like marathons.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot and forefoot. The Primeknit upper will relax slightly with wear, but ensure the initial fit is not uncomfortably restrictive.
Slipping heel
Tighten the laces through the heel collar eyelets to engage the heel counter more effectively. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the Continental rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While durable, excessive wear on the outsole pattern can reduce grip over time.
Discomfort after long wear
Check lacing technique for even pressure distribution. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's specific support profile is ideal for your foot type.
