When Adidas first introduced the public to their new 4D soles, they marketed them based on their novelty and efficiency.
This was new technology that was the next advancement in sneakers. It was bold. Comfortable, yet sturdy. And, most importantly, it was sustainable as a 3D-printed sole. And, initially, the hype was real.
But that’s long in the rearview mirror now. And 4D hasn’t had nearly as much fanfare around it as Adidas more comfortable boost alternative has. And, as a result, we see some 4D units struggling to move off of online and real-life shelves.
