A testament to adidas’ constant strive to take its innovation to the next level to design the perfect shoe for the different type of runners and in response to consumer feedback, the new Ultraboost Light has a ground - breaking new material at its core – the Light BOOST.

Simon Lockett, Footwear Product Marketing Category Director, at adidas said: “At adidas, 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.”
Dr. Matthew Klein, Chief Editor and Founder, Doctors of Running: "Running with tired or heavy legs can be uncomfortable, and heavy shoes may play a role in this sensation for some people. Lighter shoes however tend to make running more efficient, meaning they can potentially improve performance for both elite runners, but also entry and everyday runners."

1. A redesigned LEP: the Linear Energy Point found on the sole of the shoe has been reworked to optimize responsiveness and work in harmony with the new Light BOOST material.
2. PRIMEKNIT+ upper: Built for ultimate breathability and comfort, the shoe features a lightweight upper, providing an adapted fit.
3. Continental natural performance rubber: Provides optimum traction for a confident run in any weather condition.
