adidas PulseBOOST HD Running Shoes

Feel the city heartbeat under your feet. Designed for urban running, these shoes are made of breathable knit with a foot-hugging fit. Strategically placed non-stretch zones provide midfoot support, and low-profile cushioning delivers a responsive ride. A reflective badge contains the coordinates for the key running cities of Berlin, New York and Paris.

Adaptive Knit Upper

Constructed using an adaptive knit upper, the PulseBOOST HD ensures comfort, breathability and support. The textile knit wraps each foot in breathable comfort so you can remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times. The increase in ventilation allows the feet to breathe, creating a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in. Non-stretch zones also feature on the upper to increase structure and support, the overlays feature mainly on the forefoot and midfoot to increase support so you can enjoy distraction-free strides. Additionally, the sock-like construction hugs the foot for a comfortable, irritation-free fit because we know how chafing can get you down. The tongue features a QR code that once scanned connects to a unique website with information on running groups, routes and exclusive discounts. Completing the upper is a lace closure system which locks down the midfoot for a supportive, comfortable fit.

Boost HD Midsole

The PulseBOOST HD Running Shoes utilise boost's signature energy-return and comfort whilst also providing added stability for a firmer, more confident feeling. The boost foam compound provides endless energy return from heel strike through to the toe-off phase of the gait cycle. It features hundreds of visible energy capsules that store and unleash endless energy every time your foot hits the ground, meaning that every step is charged. When your heel hits the floor, the boost particles compress and store kinetic energy; as you transition through to mid-stance, the boost particles relax and release their stored energy, which propels you forward with an explosive take off. The boost midsole will change your runs forever, thanks to its energy-returning properties. In addition, when the boost capsules compress to store energy, they cushion the foot from impacts. The boost particles only compress so far, which means that they also provide light support whilst on the road.

Continental Rubber Outsole

Developed using a continental rubber outsole, the PulseBOOST HD Running Shoes ensure extraordinary traction in wet and dry conditions. Inspired by tyre technology, Continental rubber supplies traction on wet and dry surfaces, giving you no excuse not to run. The outsole is designed to be just as durable as the Boost midsole, leaving you with a resilient, cushioned and grippy running shoe. Additionally, Continental adaptive traction technology has also been used on the outsole; it uses strategically placed rubber to ensure multidirectional traction on varied terrain. Completing the outsole is a specifically designed reflective piece which provides forefoot support for lateral movements. It also works to keep you visible on late night adventures so you can go further for longer with an outsole you can truly rely upon.
