adidas Drops Another Ultra Boost OG For Chinese New Year

adidas Drops Another Ultra Boost OG For Chinese New Year

Unlike many of its competitors, adidas has been releasing commemorative footwear ahead of Chinese New Year, boasting a Superstar Clean and Ultra Boost OG in the past two weeks alone. The latter silhouette returns today before next month’s Year of the Rat festivities in a black and gold outfit decorated with a crane – just like the aforementioned Shell-Toe. This celebratory edition opts for tonal black across the Primeknit upper and BOOST midsole, only finding contrast via the gold Three Stripes branding at the midfoot cages and tongue. From a straight angle, this cushioned runner doesn’t seem any more special than other in-line Ultra Boost options, but detailing at the heel beg to differ. Symbolic of longevity and peace, a crane extends its wings across the entire heel mold on both shoes in this pair. Done in such a fashion that it resembles traditional Chinese paintings on silk, the feathered-bird dons a red beak and crown, a white body, and gold-outlined blue wings. The same color palette decorates the backdrop to create a beautiful scene.

There’s no official information on a stateside release for this CNY Ultra Boost, but some European retailers like Solebox have this pair available right now for €180 (approximately $200 USD).
