Love the shoes but the shoes box look like it came from the kitchen. The 4 starts is for the shoes if not I will give them 1 start for sending me the shoes in that crazy ugly looking box.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrible running shoe, amazing casual shoe
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2017
Verified Purchase
So as the title states, if you bought these to use as a runner; return them. Everything about this shoe screams "not a running shoe." From the casual laces, the lack of of ANY stability functions (not even the torsion system). The toebox is gigantic as is the heel (though I found no lock down issues here). The upper has ZERO flexibility in fibers (it's circle knit not the primekint found in the Ultra boost). Yet for all these issues.

They are spectacular casual shoes.

The boost distribution is decent under foot, but the massive amount around the edges keeps your foot steady and comfy. There is room a plenty inside so your feet never feel bound or constricted,. The roomy toe box adds to natural comfort to each foot fall. The circle knit upper is really comfortable and breathable but has enough cover to keep your feet warm (I like in a state that is perpetually cold). The odd looking tounge really brings the comfort together as the added material allows a natural give to the movements of your feet inside the shoes, while keeping the whole thing steady enough to never feel loose.

To sum up: The pureboost as a runner is a Zero star shoe, but I bought them with the purpose of using them as a casual shoe (FYI they are really sharp sporty shoes), so the 5 stars are warranted. Just never run in these, there are much, much, MUCH better shoes for it (see adidas' own supernova glide 8 for example).

Very comfortable & well made. My only gripe is that the shoe laces are to short there's no lace left to tie😕 Now I have to find longer laces than the 50" ones they came with, my feet are on the wide side otherwise I would have gave them 5 stars.
