At the end of May, adidas releases the ALPHAEDGE 4D, a potentially revolutionary, future-facing performance shoe. The design was created using a pioneering process called ”Digital Light Synthesis” developed by adidas and tech partners, Carbon.

Available in the UK for the first time, the midsole is a single component featuring precisely engineered zones that addresses the different needs of each athlete. This structure provides additional cushioning, propulsion, stability and comfort in key areas depending on the build and activity of the wearer. The upper of the shoe is as lightweight and functional as you’d expect, with TPU-coated fibers designed to provide comfort and durability.

With limited numbers arriving in the UK on May 31st, fans in London need to download the adidas App, sign up to participate and await further instructions to be in with a chance of getting a pair. Watch the video above to get a better idea of the breakthrough technology behind the shoe.
