adidas Introduces the AlphaBOUNCE

Today, adidas Running introduces the AlphaBOUNCE. A brand new runner that utilizes the cushioning that we all know and love from the adidas D Lillard 2.

Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?

adidas is coming for the competition at an accelerated rate as it continues to blow the competition out of the water with new technology that is better than the rest. Some of the shoes tech specs include:

FORGEDMESH

AlphaBOUNCE features a first of its kind FORGEDMESH upper, which is comprised of one layer of material with no seams, allowing the foot to move in its truest form. The FORGEDMESH is molded in a ribbed pattern in specific areas to allow for more support or expansion.

“FORGEDMESH was built upon a completely functional insight,” said George Robusti, Senior Design Director for adidas Global Running. “Using motion capture technology, we identified parts of the foot that expand during a runner’s stride. With only one piece of material, FORGEDMESH offers support in these areas, which results in a more dynamic experience during activity.”

BOUNCE

The BOUNCE midsole is comprised of EVA foam that has been engineered to feel soft and comfortable at step in and provides a responsive, elastic experience when running. The AlphaBOUNCE midsole is designed to flow seamlessly with the FORGEDMESH upper.

“AlphaBOUNCE was created from the notion that in order for athletes to perform at their highest potential, they need to be ‘in the zone’ – defined as a state of determination, clarity, or disconnect – which allows athletes to play more freely,” said Andy Barr, Category Director for adidas Global Running. “adidas aims to remove distractions and help athletes achieve that state more quickly with the seamless experience of AlphaBOUNCE.”

AlphaBOUNCE was developed using a motion capture technology called Aramis, which measures mechanics of the foot during movement. Based on motion capture insights during a runner’s stride, the defining features of AlphaBOUNCE were designed to offer support or expansion where the athlete needs it most, coupled with minimal materials and stitching to offer fewer distractions while running. – adidas Running

If you’re as interested in the adidas AlphaBOUNCE as we are then you’ll be happy to know that they will be available in Core Black/Iron Metallic/Clear Grey for both men and women for $100 on adidas.com starting June 15. Additional colorways will be available on adidas.com and at select retailers nationwide on June 20.

No, the price wasn’t a typo. adidas is currently providing athletes with the best of the best, and it’s all relatively affordable.

Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for yooooouuuuu?

  1. LOL! Man, Adidas is being aggressive with their pricing and I LOVE IT. This is just so fun to benefit from as a consumer and watch as someone who likes business. These are fun times.

  2. They look so dope !!!

    Funny : a little more then when year ago I was saying that Adidas will die…. This year I bought 6 pairs of that brand !

    obviously I couldn’t be more wrong, but I’m very happy.

    Pricing is so great

  3. Another “Yeezy” inspired shoes.. Though its not boost, bounce works very well for me though, the next best cushion ever in a long while.. Materials wise, they look good. Throw in the pricing of $100 and these kicks make it too good to pass.. Now when is it made available overseas? I wanna cop a pair too.. 😛

  4. Well hype beasts took notice quit as unfortunately these have sold out smh and are now on eBay for $240 ahhhh!!!

    1. There will be plenty more to come. I can see this being a very stocked shoe, in multiple colorways. This was just a limited first day drop.

  5. i like the other CW’s but the printed one looks like it has motion sensor trackers on it (Harden CLB’s).

  6. Though Nike is releasing some good stuff already and probably sooner or later, adidas still killing it with the looks and the price, not to mention Extraordinary performance. Dear adidas, you have finally convinced me with the clb16 and now this. Can’t wait to buy one.

  7. Adidas seems to be resurging and pushing a relatively aggressive agenda with all their releases and products. This might be a return to the heyday of Adidas but whatever it it is it means only one thing…fun for the consumer
