You will now have only the top set of eyelets remaining to lace. Put the Ultra Boosts on your feet if you want to tie them using the runner’s loop so you can tighten the shoes on your feet as you go and get a snug fit.
The Adidas Ultra Boost will now have a straight line across the bottom eyelets, then 2 “Xs” up through the next 2 eyelets, and finally a small vertical loop on either side through the last eyelet.
You will now have 2 overlapping laces creating a very skinny “X” across the top eyelets.
This is one of the most secure ways you can tie your Adidas Ultra Boosts, especially if you plan on using them for running or other athletic activities. You won’t have to worry about the shoelaces coming loose or undone, even after running long distances or over rough terrain.
This is a good casual way to tie your Ultra Boosts if you want a relaxed look, but it’s not secure enough if you want to use them for athletic activities. You won’t be able to tighten them all the way to lock your heel in the shoes. The DS loop is how Adidas Ultra Boosts come tied in the box, so you can just leave the shoes laced as they are if you have a new pair.
You can do this with the shoes off of your feet since it’s a loose style of tying your Ultra Boosts. Your hand will look like you are making the “OK” symbol at this point.
This will form a loop with your index and middle fingers in the middle of it.
As you pass the middle part of the laces through the loop, grab them with the fingertips that you used to form the loop to help pull them through. This will create another loop through the middle of the original loop.
You are now left with a loose knot that has a loop sticking out of one side and the tips of the laces poking out of the other side. This is how you often see new shoes tied right out of the box.
This is the loosest style of “tying” Adidas Ultra Boosts. It will give your shoes a unique look and make them easy to slip on and off. This style is called “uncaged” both because it uses the extra space under the “cages” that hold the shoelace eyelets and because it gives a wild, free look to the laces. It is also sometimes called “hypebeast style. ”}
The lace cage is the rubbery part of the Ultra Boosts that has the eyelets on each side of the shoe.
You will now have 2 overlapping “Xs” at the bottom half of the laces.
The laces will now have 4 overlapping “Xs” and you will have 1 set of eyelets remaining at the top.
Since the shoes are laced loosely, you don’t need to tie the laces because the tips won’t reach the ground. If the tips do look like they are too close to the ground, then loosen up all the laces a bit more to shorten the amount that hangs at the end. You can tuck the tips of the laces under the top space in the lace cage if you don’t like the way they look hanging loose.
