UltraBOOST X All Terrain: Shattering excuses to go hit the road

MANILA, Philippines – The holiday season kicks in, and excuses to skip a good run keep hounding me — deadlines, busy streets and the biggest culprit of all, the unpredictable weather. When adidas dropped the newest member of its much sought-after UltraBOOST collection last September, a joyous reason to hit the tracks lit me up.

First things first, the new UltraBOOST X All Terrain in Core Black colorway is a real stunner. A caged marbled black and gray Primeknit with matching lace atop a pristine boost midsole is something to begin with. This coveted pair also offers a fresh sight from its past versions with its high-knit ankle sock.

The updated iconic UltraBOOST can’t be a head turner for just its physical attributes, right?

I took this sleek silhouette off the road for a night run in Alabang. Putting it on heightened my worry that any ankle-support material may suffocate my feet when running. To my surprise, Three Stripe’s autumnal pair shattered it away. Its breathable fabric feels like an extension of my skin. Every movement feels comfortable and smooth, making each stride an effortless one.

As I keep hitting kilometres, it started to drizzle down South. No big deal as UltraBOOST X All Terrain is innovated to be a splash water-repellent ground-breaker. If I were wearing my regulars, I would be rushing toward the nearest shed to save my kicks from the unwanted rain. Also, remember how I worry about the high-knit sock? Well, it just provided my ankle warmth for this cold night run.

The UltraBOOST X All Terrain is a lovely fusion of form, functionality and aesthetics.

More than providing runners with unbeatable protection from changing weather conditions, this women’s runner is crafted to increase foot to floor action on slippery surfaces. The BOOST outsole got me covered so I am in control.

Two and a half kilometers passed and I am still fueled to go further. All because of the signature BOOST technology that bounces back the energy released every time my foot hits the ground. Rounding off the seamless performance is the adaptive arch that adds dynamic support as I go.

Oh, did I mention how the reflective detailing on the sock offers visibility for street running?

Having said these, the adidas UltraBOOST  X All Terrain women’s runner exceeds my expectations. It is more than just running shoes — it shatters excuses so you can run in your element without any fuss. The pair itself is a company for breaking a good sweat.

It’s undeniable that UltraBOOST’s incessant hype won’t end anytime soon as each pair is empowering and incredibly stylish. Retailing at PHP 9,995, the new UltraBOOST All Terrain and UltraBOOST X All Terrain are now available in adidas.com.ph/UltraBOOST and leading adidas stores.
