When adidas first introduced the new Boost Technology in 2013, they set off a revolutionary product. But the real 'Boost hype' firstly began with the adidas Ultra Boost, which launched in 2015. And when there is a new hype in the sneaker-world, new fakes are not far away. Not only Yeezy's and NMD's have to deal with this topic, but the Ultra Boost as well.

Here you can find out how you distinguish between a legit and a fake pair of adidas Ultra Boost's and what you have to be aware
As for the first step of the real vs fake Adidas Ultrabost legit check guide, we will have to inspect the size tag.

As we said previously, the best way to tell a fake pair of Adidas Ultraboost is to inspect the details of the size tag.


If you remove the sockliners you will see the stitching joining the insole to the upper. Make sure the stitching is tight, neat and evenly spaced. Also note how the insole has a block like pattern cut out of it so that you can see the Boost material underneath. Look closely for the tiny cluster of 7 dots in a hexagonal shape embossed into the boost material, they are not easy to see but they are there. In this example you can see one of these clusters inside the top, second from right, block.

The really first thing, which is suspicious when it comes to a legit or a fake pair of adidas Ultra Boost's, is the price. When the price is under retail (180€) you should be directly careful and look after the shoe in detail. It doesn't necessarily mean that the shoe is fake, but attentive.

They ooze quality - well made, with clean lines and no loose threads or misaligned graphics. A desirable product; which is what you come to expect from adidas. The shoes fit well, true to size with no break-in period required - comfort right out of the box

Adidas not only partnered with ISS to create some seriously good looking running shoes, but they also improved upon the beloved Ultra Boost line – the 20 is a superior running shoe. Our run test reviewer, Todd, shared his feedback on the updates adidas made to the 20. He tested this shoe right after a 100-mile race. His feet were, needless to say, beat up and, “this shoe was a godsend.” His three favorite features were.

The counterfeits these days are ridiculously identical to the authentic ones too. It’s like trying to differentiate the iPhone 6 from iPhone 6S; they look identical, until you pick it up to use it.

To the untrained eye, fake sneakers can’t be discerned. As such, counterfeits are often bought as a budget option.

I’ve had the original pair for about a year, and as you can see, it’s still in great condition except for some dirt, which is inevitable. It’s extremely comfortable thanks to the Boost sole technology of Adidas, and I wear them so often that I forget I have 20 other pairs of shoes in my closet.

The Boost is spongy, responsive, and it really makes you feel like you’re walking on a field of cotton and clouds.

But how do the fakes stack up to the real ones in terms of comfort and durability? And most importantly, can you still look ‘fly’ wearing them?
