Ultraboost 5

Ultraboost 5/5X with some deals and credit card you can get for about 7-7.5K, worth every penny if you can stretch your budget

That’s crazy deal, too good to be true, even for any ultraboost. Ultrarun goes less expensive usually

Opposite for me though. My Gel Nimbus 26 is my go to shoes for wet asphalt and concrete. I do agree that adidas continental is also grippy, at least with my Ultraboost 5. I just find the Nimbus 26 grippier than the UB5 though that's probably because UB5 doesn't have full Continental coverage. Might be a different story had the UB 5s came with full Continental outsole coverage.

ultraboosts 5 are for 7k? i brought them for like 3.2k something a few months ago

Adidas Ultraboost 5, Adidas EVO SL and Brooks Gylicerin Max (OG)

Gait analysis at Up and Running (UK running store) had them insisting I overpronated and needed stability shoes, so they happily sold me some Kayano 31s. What they failed to tell me is that I also have high arches, so the heavy stability elements ended up doing more harm than good and ruined my gait, forcing my feet to move horizontally in the shoes and caused me to have to stop every couple of km and readjust the insole. Had months of losing my mind and losing my will to run before I tried a run in some ancient, size too small Ultraboosts I bought as casual trainers and all of a sudden ran in complete comfort and beat my own PB on my first run. i took the Kayanos back to the shop and they made me feel like I was losing my mind and just tried to sell me some insoles and wouldn’t accept they’d sold me the wrong shoes. I eventually just sold them on Vinted at a loss, bought some Evo SLs based on nothing but hype and ran very happily after as they were neutral and flexible, exactly what I needed. Only when I went to a podiatrist recently did I find out I had high arches and it all made sense why the Kayanos were such a nightmare. Turns out I barely pronate at all as well, so I wasted £180 and months of hating running just because Up and Running can’t be bothered to actually fit shoes properly, they just wanted to sell me the most expensive shoe they had.

Have these and have put 35km on it, i am 70kg and i feel like every time i use it it looses its bounce too quickly. Also hurts my calf when doing uphill jogs and i haven't encounter that issue with ultraboost.

I'd look at something simple like a daily trainer, not super soft like Ultraboost. I switched to a more stable shoe and the foot pain went away pretty quick. Also helped just slowing down and building up mileage, my feet were not used to the impact at all.
