Endless Energy Returns: adidas Running Launches New Line of Energy Boost Shoes

In February last year, adidas Running launched the game-changing Energy Boost shoes. These shoes boasted the highest energy return in the market with their patented micro-capsules in each foam sole. These energy capsules store and unleash energy with each step. Aside from that, the Boost foam itself is super comfortable making the shoes perfect even for just walking around.

It’s safe to say that the Energy Boost has changed running forever. But adidas won’t stop with that model. Building on the success (several international marathons have been won by runners in Boost shoes), adidas has released a new line of the Energy Boost shoes in all-new colorways.
