What is BOOST?
Experience a run full of energy with BOOST technology
Find out everything there is to know about the technology behind adidas BOOST.
Since 2013 shoes with adidas BOOST have been helping runners all over the world go faster and further in a whole new realm of comfort. But the story of BOOST goes beyond that.
In 2009 long-time adidas partner BASF - the world’s largest chemical company - discovered a new way of using a granular material called thermoplastic urethane (TPU).
Using pressure and heat, the material was blown up like popcorn and turned into thousands of small shock-absorbing energy capsules.

More than 2000 of the capsules are fused and shaped into each midsole and are structured to store and unleash energy more efficiently than any other foam, helping runners take their performance to the next level.

If you’re running on the road or the trail, in the heat or the rain, BOOST can handle any terrain. BOOST foam is three times more temperature-resistant than the standard material used in other running shoes, making it ideal for the urban runner.
Get ready for a run like never before and hit the streets with a run full of energy.
