help Adidas Boost Sole FAQ

What material is the Adidas Boost sole made of?

The Boost midsole is constructed from thousands of expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (eTPU) pellets. These pellets are fused together to create a highly resilient and responsive foam cushioning system.

Which popular Adidas sneaker models feature the Boost technology?

Boost was first introduced globally in the Energy Boost running shoe, but it became most famous in the Ultraboost line. It is also widely used in the popular lifestyle sneaker, the Yeezy Boost 350, designed with Kanye West.

Is the Adidas Boost sole better than traditional EVA foam?

Many runners and sneaker enthusiasts find Boost superior to standard EVA foam because it provides significantly more energy return and maintains its bouncy cushioning in cold weather. However, EVA is generally lighter and more durable over extreme long-term mileage.

How was the Adidas Boost technology developed?

The cushioning system was developed in collaboration between the Adidas Innovation Team and BASF, a German chemical company. BASF originally invented the expanded TPU material, and Adidas adapted it specifically for performance footwear.
