What causes the white ADIDAS Ultra Boost / NMD BOOST Midsole to turn yellow?

OXIDATION.

This is the process of losing an electron, or the gaining of oxygen. Some elements lose or gain electrons more easily than others. That's the only as much science as I will talk about, or you guys are going to get confused.

Basically, your BOOST midsole turns yellow because of this chemical reaction. It is a natural process that cannot be stopped.Sooner or later, it will happen no matter what you do to the shoes.

But the question is how do we stop this?

If left open to the elements, the shoe will definitely turn yellow. For soles, innovative individuals over in the US have came up with Sole Protectors that protects the sole from the elements. By covering the soles with a thin sheet of layering, it protects the shoes from water, air, dirt and more. This way, the oxidation of the shoes is slowed down considerably.

The midsole however, is a different ball game altogether. While you can use bleaching agent to whiten it up, it requires a lot of time and is quite complicated to use. The best solution would be to just paint over the yellowing BOOST with specialised paint.
