Adidas Is Celebrating Black History Month With Special Ultra Boost Sneakers

For Black History Month, Adidas is honoring the celebration with exclusive Ultra Boost sneakers releasing soon.

Instead of utilizing the recently introduced Ultra Boost 19 that debuted last month, this special edition incorporates the classic uncaged variation of the lifestyle runner dressed in one of the more simplistic colorways to drop thus far.

The sock-like upper boasts off-white hues sans the 3-Stripes lacing cage seen on the sides while subtle purple, black and red accents are applied onto the eyelets on the medial sides. In place of the traditional plastic heel counter is a fabric construction featuring the Ultra Boost embossed branding around the back of the foot.

The standout feature is found on the custom insole, bearing a special CBC (Celebrating Black Culture) emblem with an orange basketball graphic at the center. Capping off the look is a full-length Boost cushioning midsole, which sits atop a contrasting Continental outsole.
