With yet another long week of school commitments I was once again unsure about what to write about.
Therefore once again I have dived into my collection and present to you my battered and bruised pair of Adidas ultra boost 3.0.

I brought these running shoes from Depop in March of 2017 and can easily say they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn, leagues above my Yeezy’s. The boost technology sole, now found in most Adidas sneakers these days, feels like you’re gliding as you walk and allows you to forget they are even on your feet. Until someone compliments you on your trainers.
The laces are kept in place due to a hardened rubber material on the sides of the shoe. This is Adidas’ attempt to protect the soft fabric material from the forces of nature when you’re out running and improve the products lifespan. This is the heaviest part of a shoe shock is incredibly light compared by today’s standard and ranks very low on the weight scale when compared to others on the market.
Just like all Adidas lifestyle/running shoes, the 3.0 is very aesthetically pleasing. The versatility makes it stand out from the majority as it can be seen worn in many different styled outfits for to the minimalistic patterns and ways to lace it. The only con identified by some of the biggest sneaker collectors is the cage running along the sides which isn’t particularly easy on the eye.

An Adidas ultra boost shoe has a vey high drop in comparison to most running shoes. With a heel to toe drop of 10mm, the wearer is given a smoother transition in between strides. Something not considered by most brands when designing running shoes.
Overall it been stated by experts in the industry that the Adidas ultra boost does not provide enough in the way of support for running to account for the streetwear market. The mesh fabric is thin and very flexible which explains why the Adidas ultra boost 3.0 acts as a better casual trainer than it does a running shoe.
