The mythical tale of the adidas Ultra increase begins on a particularly cold day back in January 2015. unveiled by Yohan Blake, David Villa, Sammy Watkins, and a team of elite athletes at a secret location in new York City, absolutely no one knew that they were about to see history in the making. accompanied with the outstanding claim that it was the “greatest running shoe ever”, numerous were quick to question this lofty statement, but five years later it remains true to its word, and here’s why.
At its core, the legendary Ultra increase features a relatively easy design, especially when compared to a lot of running shoes from Nike and ASICS that were already dominating the market. featuring a stretchy upper that provided up a sock-like fit, the wearer’s foot was held in by a TPU cage that was decked out in three stripe branding across the lateral and medial sides. This was then assisted with a heel cup around the back that offered full 360 degree support and stability with every step. While this all sounds pretty damn breathtaking, it really wasn’t anything to write home about. In fact, what made the UB so spectacular was everything that was packed in the bottom half of the shoe.

While it certainly wasn’t the first time that increase made its grand debut, it was certainly the most memorable time. Unbeknownst to many, the German huge actually released its award-winning cushioning technology two years prior with the energy Boost. A silhouette that made headlines in 2014 when Dennis Kimetto crossed the finish line in world-record time at the Berlin marathon wearing a pair, the hype failed to extend beyond the running community. Without a second to spare, adidas’ top designers headed back to the drawing boards.
The ideal fusion of form and function, not only did the Triple White look good, the tech behind it all was way ahead of its time. A culmination of three of the Herzogenaurach-based company’s newest and greatest sneaker developments including Primeknit, Torsion, and now Boost, this was all stuffed in a sleek and streamlined package that completely improved upon the energy increase in every way, shape, and form. This was all the result of numerous years of research and development and various rounds of testing.

From NASA’s world-renowned ARAMIS system to crash tests from Boeing and Audi as well as a multitude of vibration analysis and durability studies, the numbers were there to show that the UB was practically ideal for any sort of surface and environment. In fact, statistics showed that it provided 20% much more energy return than its predecessor, and while that may not sound like a lot to the average Joe, it was really unlike anything that we had seen before.
To add to this, it had the advantage that it came about at a time when the sneaker scene was growing at an exponential rate. According to American market research company The NPD Group, the industry grew by 8% in 2015, generating $17.2 billion and marking one of the best performances that it had in years. To put this in layman’s terms, this is about a 40% increase because 2004. It goes without saying then that not only did the Ultra increase sell out, it was selling out so fast that supply simply couldn’t keep up with demand.
“While there was remarkable volatility at the category level, the overall strength of the industry was clearly apparent in 2015.”

If you thought that the renowned Ultra increase was at its top at this point, you would be wrong, very wrong. fast forward five months from its initial debut, and the “Triple White” made a grand entrance when a certain artist wore a pair on-stage at the billboard music awards and at PowerHouse. through the heavy censorship, smoke, and pyrotechnics, the one and only Kanye West hopped enthusiastically around while rocking the clean cut creps.
Almost immediately, the minimalist colourway shot up to superstardom and sold out absolutely everywhere, with third party marketplaces selling pairs for over £1,000. While this number may sound a bit over-the-top, the thing is, people were actually purchasing them. The hype was certainly real and it wasn’t going anywhere, anytime soon. As Ye once rapped in 2011’s Grammy-nominated, platinum certified view The Throne, “Who gon’ stop me? who gon’ stop me, huh?”
A few months after this game changing event, adidas began to reach out to various brands to collaborate on the running-turned-lifestyle shoe, and kicking it all off was an environmentally friendly partnership with environmental initiative Parley For The Oceans. While the collab is still going strong even half a decade later, it all started with a prototype pair that was limited to just 100 pairs worldwide.
