Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!This manufacturing process signals a new era in footwear development, where performance, comfort, and aesthetic are engineered together from the very first layer. CLIMACOOL LACED is meticulously crafted over approximately 24 hours using advanced digital light synthesis (DLS) 3D printing. Designed for both men and women, the latest silhouette is the result of extensive foot form testing, delivering a fit and feel unachievable through traditional methods. The silhouette features no edges or joins, no rubbing or pressure points – just smooth, stable support that feels barely there.
Built layer by layer through high-resolution 3D printing, the shoe unlocks a new level of functional precision, with ventilation zones where airflow matters most. The sculpted lattice structure delivers a seamless, lighter ride – 15% lighter than 2025 models – while still offering enhanced comfort and all-round breathability. Size-specific cushioning is printed into every pair, ensuring a consistently tailored underfoot feel. This is further complemented by an all-new laced construction, designed to accommodate more foot shapes for an adaptable fit.
Fronted by American basketball stars Kahleah Copper and Jalen Williams – both known for their style on and off the court, the campaign explores the power of moving air, through the lens of breathability. Set to be showcased during athletes’ off-duty moments, CLIMACOOL LACED uses adidas’ advanced and unique 3D additive manufacturing process to serve those who want to wear the sportswear built using the latest product innovation.
Enhanced by minimalist detailing the footwear feels as effortless as it looks, the CLIMACOOL LACED is Sportswear built to define the style of tomorrow. Key features of the shoe include:
- 360° airflow: Built with airy materials and strategically placed mesh ventilation zones for increased breathability
- Second skin feel: The soft and stable design is optimized to hug the foot, adapting with and matching each move
- Adjustable, durable fit: Featuring a new added outsole which provides better protection and durability, whilst the laces allow for a more flexible fit
Priced at R 3299, the new CLIMACOOL LACED launches worldwide from March 3, 2026, in stores and online at www.adidas.co.za/sportswear.
