adidas Terminology Explained

ADIPRENE+: A shock-absorbing EVA material that provides cushioning and reduces impact on harsh landings.

ADITUFF: adidas ADITUFF material wraps around the toe and medial forefoot to help protect against foot drag. adidas also incorporates ADITUFF RPU dots providing durability in high abrasion areas such as the side of the shoe for hard-court slides.

ADIWEAR: adidas’ most durable material, adiwear is incorporated into the outsole to provide extreme durability and will last in the toughest conditions on hard lateral movements.

ADIZERO: This technology minimizes weight in apparel and shoes without sacrificing performance, offering a lightweight and comfortable experience for the player.

BOOST: adidas’ premium midsole material provides responsive and comfortable cushioning with every step you take. The more energy put into your footwork, the more response that is given back.

BOUNCE: A midsole material that provides exceptional comfort and flexibility. Bounce technology is excellent underfoot and has been a great experience for our playtesting team.

PARLEY: Parley colorways feature an upper made with yarn and Parley Ocean Plastic, which is made from recycled waste intercepted from beaches and coastal communities.
