The 22 doesn't feel as comfortable as the older design. Put in insoles and they are still less comfortable compared to my ultraboost 2.0 without insoles
They run small so if you're interested get a half size big. Also kind of narrow in case you half wide feet. The primeknit upper is also very snug, my toes were sticking out. If you remove the insole it fits better but then its still not that comfy. The old ultraboosts were definitely softer, this new one is trying too hard to be a serious running shoe, they added more rigidness. If you want a comfy daily shoe go with the ultraboost dna instead.

Definitely is narrow. My right foot is wider than my left and gets aches. I'll try changing out the insoles.

Are the DNA's narrow?
DNA's are a bit wider and roomier, personally I just went with the nike invincible 2's, those are definitely wider, taller, and very squishy. They are currently on sale for $105 on nike's website. If you have a shoe store near you that carries them I'd say at least check them out, for an everyday shoe they are very comfy. Kinda wish it came in better colors though....

100% They feel clunky on the foot and despite the thicker UB sole, they aren't more comfortable. They are heavier too and no matter how I tightened my laces, I felt they were slipping off my heel when I stepped. 'Classic' DNA models are the way to go for me.

Couldn't agree more with this post. I moved on from ultraboost to these and am not looking back. I had 15-20 pairs of ultra boosts but these Nike's blow them away in comfort. I've bought every color that have in the Nike invincible 2's and always hated Nike before. Super wide and comfy. Can walk 5+ miles easily and am comfortable. Game changer.
I'm all day on my feet as a resident doc and these 22s get max use. I think the big heel of the 21-22s is good for people that have to stand in one position for longer periods. Older/DNA versions are good for people that have to walk around all shift (i.e. server)
I completely agree with other people's sentiment that Adidas has ruined/botched the Ultraboost series. I think 19s were probably the last series that felt good. I stopped buying them mostly because the upper just doesn't feel the same and doesn't provide that tight but flexible feeling for runners. UA's HOVR Phantom 2 were somewhat comparable but I am still searching for good pair of running shoes.

I purchased an Adidas UB22 and a Nike Infinity Run Flyknit 3 in the past month. To me, the Nike Infinity Run 3 has a better fit.
