Skate sessions can be rough on your feet and skateboarding legend Mark Gonzales knows first hand. So the adidas Skateboarding team member and adidas have teamed up on the extremely comfortable adidas Ultraboost tapping into Mark’s artistry and made for post-skate sessions and the ultimate chill sneaker.
“It was exciting for me to take on the Ultraboost because people who skate like a comfy shoe when they’re not skating. I loved jumping rope in them,” Mark Gonzales said. “I put a lot of pencil work to create the circular design to get a good balance between the Boost and the art, so that both bases were covered.”
The sneaker uses a Primeknit upper that features Gonz’s Shmoo graphic throughout the grey, navy, and teal sneaker. The external cage is seen in a translucent black that features the 3 Stripes with the external heel counter seen in black. Black is seen again on the cushy full-length Boost setup with a gum Continental rubber outsole finishing off the sneaker.
The adidas Ultraboost by Mark Gonzales “Shmoo” is set to drop on June 11th on adidas.com/skateboarding for $180. Check out the editorial photos from adidas below and for all the latest drop dates, head over to our Sneaker Release Dates page.
