Clima yarns are the whole idea: fibres fused into the Primeknit that move moisture away from the foot rather than holding it, which turns a warm knit sock into something wearable in heat. This version takes the treatment and covers it in black from the upper through to the sole, so the functional change is invisible and the shoe looks like any other blacked-out runner until it is worn in summer.
Responsive Boost cushioning sits underneath, paired with a flexible Continental rubber outsole and the adidas Torsion system, a bar under the arch that lets the forefoot and rearfoot twist against each other instead of moving as one rigid unit. It went out on July 4, 2019. Clima builds are the hot-weather half of an UltraBoost catalogue that also ran cold-weather versions, and the difference between the two lives entirely in the upper.
