New Jersey-based footwear stalwart Packer has teamed with adidas Consortium for the first ever Ultra4D collaboration. A hybrid lifestyle shoe that combines an UltraBOOST upper with a futuristic 4D midsole, the Ultra4D is the latest piece of adidas‘ extensive push to make its 4D tech more accessable — and here, Packer has given it a dash of understated elegance.

Uppers are woven from a rich ocean blue Primeknit, with a tonal pigskin suede mudguard placed on the forefoot. The midfoot cage brings an elegant navy blue to its Three Stripe build, with two more shades of blue introduced via the mesh back and text-branded EVA heel clip. A dash of bright flair is served by Packer’s orange-and-red P logo on the tongue and insoles plus red lace tips. Down below, an all-black 4D midsole built of light and oxygen through Carbon’s proprietary Digital Light Synthesis tech sits atop a textured blue rubber outsole to complete the look.

The Packer x adidas Consortium Ultra4D is available now via the Packer webstore, and is priced at $250 USD.
