/c/café daily chat thread for 17 August 2023
(self.cafe)
Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
just bought a pair of Ultraboost 1.0, but i think i'm going to return it. I only bought it because i thought it looked sleek and it actually fits unlike the NMD.
some people swear how comfortable Ultraboost 1.0 are. i think they have obviously never owned a pair New Balance. The issue is there's little padding, and the base is also too thin, flexes way too much and it lacks stability. It's also terrible for driving and I can't do heel-toe properly.
Before Ultraboost, I get frequent arch foot pain. After getting my first pair, I can walk way longer distances without getting the pain now. Although, may consider New Balance as my next pair because I have no brand loyalty and willing to try new things.
I have a pair of 327, it's by far the most comfortable sneaker i ever had. doesn't look like it but once your foot is in it just makes sense. Recently got a pair of 580, it's less comfortable initially but after breaking in it's pretty good as well loads of padding.
