The ultimate Ultraboost

The Ultraboost has been a cornerstone of Adidas’ running and lifestyle lineup for over a decade, earning its reputation as one of the most comfortable and recognizable performance sneakers on the market. The Ultraboost 5X is the latest evolution of that lineage, bringing a series of meaningful upgrades that make it the most refined version yet.

At the center of those improvements is a new Lightboost midsole, which uses Boost cushioning to deliver higher energy return than previous iterations while trimming 17 grams from the overall weight.

The upper has been redesigned with a hyper-anatomical Primeknit construction that wraps the foot more precisely, while a molded external heel counter improves lockdown without adding bulk.

Underfoot, Adidas pairs the cushioning with a Continental Rubber outsole for grip and a Torsion system for midfoot support through each stride. The result is a shoe that feels genuinely at home as a daily trainer, a casual wear option, and everything in between.
