Adidas Ultraboost 29430 1

Adidas and Parley relaunch the Ultraboost 1.0 DNA

Adidas and Parley are no stranger to a collaboration, with the two brands often teaming up to produce eco-friendly iterations of Adidas’s classic silhouettes. The latest model to receive a makeover is the Ultra boost 1.0 DNA., both Adidas and Parley have worked to produce a sustainable trainer that further enhances the brands efforts towards ending plastic waste.

The upper of the trainer is fabricated using at least 50% Parley ocean plastic, ensuring flexibility and breathability while on the go. The two-tone design of the upper enhances the aesthetic of the trainer while a black heel cage is elevated with the use of gold “ultra boost” branding. A translucent three stripes adds the famous Adidas branding to the shoe, as well as serving as the eyelets of the trainer.

Two-tone laces are used to tie the kicks, while thick padding to heel serves as a well needed support for running or everyday use. Using Adidas’s renowned ultra-boost sole, the shoe propels its wearer to their peak performance levels, as torsion bar technology allows for ergonomic, free movement on the foot. Traction on any track is a necessity and that’s why Adidas look to Continental rubber as the basis of the shoes outsole.
