adidas shows its muscles with a totally new AlphaBounce Instinct

Since debuting in 2016, adidas AlphaBounce was the first model that carried the AlphaBounce cushioning technology, before it was used on different models like the adidas basketball line of Damian Lillard.

After two years German brand updates this running shoe with material modifications and small design tweaks, but now the brand has a new version on the way, with a crazy new muscular look.

AlphaBounce Instinct is the name of this new version that presents a radical new midsole and an all-new upper. Segmented between the forefoot and heel, the cushioning is divided by a plastic shank plate that rises up becoming a lace heel ensuring stability inside the shoe. Aesthetically, the model loses its usual paneled upper for a wavy and cleaner pattern that carries over onto the midsole.

Although adidas has yet to officially unveil the new AlphaBounce Instinct, Foot Locker has it on its upcoming releases list, one in grey for June 1st and a Shock Lime/Aero Green/High-Res Orange for June 9th.
