Continuing to push boundaries, Adidas today unveiled the Ultra Boost cleat, an American Football silhouette inspired by the world-famous running shoe.
Adidas Ultra Boost Cleat - Grey
This image shows the all-new Adidas Ultra Boost boots.
Closely resembling the regular Ultra Boost, the new Adidas Ultra Boost football cleats have a one-piece upper with a melange print. Both the heel counter and lateral cage of the Ultra Boost are retained, albeit adapted to fit the slightly different purpose.
In order to offer traction on grass surfaces, Adidas opted to take over the sole plate of one of its American football cleats here, although a thin layer of Boost is kept in the sockliner and midsole, just like on the Ace 17+ PureControl.
In addition to the cleated piece of footwear, Adidas will also launch a regular Ultra Boost running sneaker in the same colorway, featuring a thick layer of trademark Boost cushioning for a soft and stable ride.
It has been reported that the silver Adidas Ultra Boost and Ultra Boost cleat will go on sale on February 16 - in very limited quantities.
