Combining five silhouettes into one may have proven a daunting task, but with over 73 years of design language pushing the German brand forward, the adidas AlphaBOOST V1 has ushered adidas’ running silhouettes into a new era of creation.
Now exploring a stark contrast to its near all-white build, a knit “Core Black” mesh engulfs the upper in tandem with its color-matched tongue construction and elongated laces stretching to the midfoot. Elsewhere, dark greys are called upon to accent the gloomy aesthetic through TPU overlays and lightened pull tabs while a seldom splash of baby blue touches down at the upper eye stay. Continuing its restrictive use of color, the Adiprene+ cushioning system upfront enjoys a continued darkened proposition with its “Blue Dawn” hue whereas FORMOTION provides a “Lucid Fuchsia” construction adjacently at its heel and along the tongues branding.. Rounding out the amalgamation of technology packed underfoot, crisp white BOOST placed at the heel diverges immediately next to the return of somber dark greys which outfits the remaining sections of the full-length BOUNCE sole unit.
Currently available on adidas.com (see link below) at a retail price of $120, enjoy official images of the adidas AlphaBOOST V1 “Core Black” below as well.
