adidas continues to surprise us with innovative sneaker technology, and this time they are tackling it big with the ZPONGE. After the famous BOOST and 4D technologies, it is now time for a whole new kind of cushioning, inspired by sea sponges, dear community. The ZPONGE has a midsole that resembles the compressive properties of a sponge.
Don't worry, there's no connection to Spongebob, although one of the two colourways might remind you briefly of the animation. And the technology itself? Just as impressive as the famous yellow sea-dweller!
ZPONGE's midsole has an open-cell structure that adapts to pressure while returning energy for extra comfort and a responsive experience. So every step not only feels soft, but also ensures that you are effortlessly propelled forward.
The ZPONGE's upper is a sturdy nylon construction, a nod to adidas' running shoes, with extra padding around the heel and collar for even more comfort.
On 19 December 2024, the ZPONGE will come to Europe in two new colorways. One has an ‘Ice Yellow’ upper with a ‘Focus Blue’ midsole, and the other combines blue with ‘Wonder Mauve’. If you thought you had seen it all in sneaker territory, adidas comes back with a brand new technology.
