adidas Running presents the new UltraBOOST Light sneaker model which is the latest to join the series, marking the lightest form of the shoe yet. The sneaker rests on top of the classic BOOST technology that has an improved iteration of the spongey cushioning that is 30% lighter and much more comfortable and responsive that its previous versions.
The company's Footwear Product Marketing Category Director Simon Lockett tells Highsnobiety that “We know that running is personal. Everyone has a different goal and therefore, different requirements for their shoes. That is why we’re continuously looking at ways to improve our products for the adidas running community. Now, thanks to our ground-breaking material innovation — Light BOOST — runners retain the existing benefits of running in an UltraBOOST, but with the bonus of a lighter silhouette.”
