    If they made them? Idk, no magic number. I'd own both of them though.

    I like those. We got the lil man the 90s for Christmas as a couple of his pairs and I gotta say the black one while not as good as the white isn’t nearly half bad.

    The 90s are still pretty blue. The Prestos have yellowed a little but not as bad as when we discussed it earlier and pics you sent. They are more blue than yellow. 9AC9C2E4-62FE-4CA3-ACCE-50974841F59C.jpeg

    buy a pair from each site, they both have perfect return policies

    Epic React 2 is super comfy. The new Infinity React or whatever it is isn't as comfy. Its more stiff. Probably better for running but not as nice for just walking.

    Epic Reacts are comfy, but they don't really come close to UBs.

    I get why you choose to pass. That reason should also exclude you from giving recommendations on the most comfortable

    NJ Nets hardwood classics. Gap joggers cause I don’t know what’s acceptable to wear with what. Want to diversify

    Not trying to be douche so idk how to say it without sounding like one but having had all 3 the yeezys are far and away the most comfortable ones.

    Fwiw everyone's foot is different and people like different things. There's no definitive right or wrong answer. People can only comment on their personal preferences. Try both and keep what you like the most.

    I have both, and have worn my 2 pair of UB’s less than 10 times total combined. I wear the Epic React 2 every week. Depends a little on foot shape, as reacts are a little narrower which doesn’t make your foot slide around as much, but still aren’t too tight. I find that much more comfortable. I also have a moderately high arch, and UB’s are tighter at the top of my mid foot. Reacts all day.

    Also blows my mind people think Yeezys (I have the Yecheils) are even in the same ballpark as either. They are so big and bulky with the toe box going from really wide to very narrow quickly. Just feels so clunky all the time.

    Also you have to be more specific. ER2 is the most comfy to me. ER1 was similar but the upper was a bit too tight for me. Then they moved to the Infiniti thing and it's meh. I know UB has changed a lot over the years so I assume some versions are more comfy comfy others.

    opinions can’t be wrong except for this one. That’s if you’re saying those two are more comfortable.

    He didn't ask a question. He said he was torn between them. I gave my 2 cents that ER's are super comfy.

    I’d pick literally 50 other shoes I own based on comfort before I’d choose the yeezys.

    I prefer soft and squishy. The gooier the cushioning the better, for me. I know that’s not good for a lot of people.

    I prefer UBs to 350s

    The 350s boost is def better, but they have that weird plastic lining inside the toe box so you don't feel the stretch of the knit like a UB. I also hate the 350s being interior lacing bc it rubs on my feet.

    What about the 4D vs UB? I’ve wanted some UBS, but haven’t wanted to pull the trigger for $200. I do really like the mint 4D.

    Boost is more comfortable than 4D. 4D isn't bad by any means, but it's heavier and not as soft as Boost.

    Yeezys are my most comfortable shoe. I don’t have an issue with the toe box like some. The cushion seems softer or “more” than the other two and the nit top feels like there is nothing there if that makes sense.

    I only wear Birkenstock’s now because they are the most comfortable and versatile shoe. Dress them up with socks or dress them down barefoot. Looks as good with shorts as a suit.

    Yeah I’ve had quite a few pairs of yeezys and I’ve never once felt the inner laces or anything in the toe. They’re extremely comfortable. I’ve never had a pair of Nikes that I’ve thought were super comfortable and I’ve had most of what they’ve come out with other than the old man Nikes. At the same time I’ve never had a pair I’d call uncomfortable. I like some Diadoras for comfort. Never thought NB were comfortable like some do. DBL and a few others are right. Different stuff works for different people but I still can’t imagine someone not finding 350s or 380s comfy. I have 700s but have yet to take them out of the box
