# Bold Chunky Technical Sneakers UGG Shines a Spotlight on the UGG CA805 Sneaker Model By Amy Duong | Published 2024-06-06 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ugg-ca805 References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/sashiko-gals-kuon-salomon-speedcross/)  [UGG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goldencush) is introducing another pair of sneakers to its roster with a highlight on the UGG CA805 silhouette. The shoes are defined by their [chunky structure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breeze-sneaker) and technical elements, which brings the brand to a new angle this time around. Visually, it appears to be a hybrid design that blends elements of an orthopedic sneaker with a GORP-packed [trail running shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/speedarc-surge-boa). It has a slightly curved structure for a lifestyle design. The colorway palette has a grey and red tone with a layered build. The UGG CA805 is surprisingly not brand-new as it has been around since 2020 in different variations. The latest has a zipper over the forefoot and branding on the side in a subtle application.
