I've purchased several pairs of running shoes over the past year training for 1/2 marathons and marathons. I typically buy Asics but, based on a recommendation from a salesman at a local running store, decided to give the Ultra Boost's a try. They are like walking on a cloud. Not a messy, squishy cloud but a soft cloud. They also provide ample arch support for me. One thing that was very different was the fit - these are very snug, like a sock. Wearing thick socks would be uncomfortable. The toe-box is snug but the whole shoe is designed to fit like a glove, so that is to be expected. They are also the lightest shoe I have ever worn. There is plenty of cushion at the heel and less in the mid-foot forward. I think the shoe is just right. I got solar yellow and have been easy to pick out of the running crowd at events. If you have wide feet, I don't think these would work.
