adidas continues to grow its ongoing UltraBOOST line of sneakers with the latest spotlighting the UltraBOOST DNA XXII sneaker model for the season. The new silhouette is made for the trails and prepared for different outdoor terrain that takes the retro UltraBOOST shape and is updated with performance features.
There are key accents including the knitted upper that presents itself similarly to a leather look due to the overlaying details. It sits on top of the toothy rubber sole unit, which is perfect for handling terrains and classic TPU cages. It sits on top of a full-length BOOST midsole and to embody a sustainable angle, the shoe is made from a minimum of 50% recycled content throughout the upper.
