[adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aruku) introduces a brand new [UltraBOOST](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraboost-5-x-hermanos-koumori) to its expansive roster with the latest UltraBOOST Web DNA sneaker model. The color palette blends together Cloud White with Legacy Teal and Core Black for a minimal yet bright look for the season.

The running shoe is made up of Primeblue [Primeknit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-ultraboost-5x) material throughout the upper and it is notably crafted from high-performing recycled materials that are made in partnership with Parlet Ocean Plastic. This results in a material that is made from 75% Primeblue yarn with no trace of virgin polyester. Additional details include the perforated detail at the mesh toe box for even more breathability and a Stretchweb over the sole unit for a bounce with every step.
