Royals..but I don't own shadows yet..they might be #1 once I have in hand..(it's obvious u can rock them with anything) black/red are too dope..those right behind royals..then black toes
 
Pretty sure they patented it otherwise other brands would use it in some form but if it you saw the video he basically shaped it into a regular sole which was a interesting idea

Nope they're leasing the patent right now. Their contract is almost up they're gonna have to put out some serious cash to keep the tech and expand the usage

Nike actually passed on the boost tech because they didn't view it as durable enough and stuck with lunar

From what I remember from some informative YouTube video, apparently the material that is used to make the Adidas BOOST technology is also the same material that is used for Nike Lunarlon technology as well.

So technically, Nike does have a BOOST type tech in the form of Lunarlon...........its just that both Nike & Adidas use the material differently.

But anyway, that was my two cents on that matter.

Back to what the purpose of this thread is all about

The blatant disrespect of that poll against the Shadows

it is funny , before the royal 1s rerelease that they were kinda hard to find due to low quantites released in the states everyones favourite 1 was royal , now that the shadows are the only ones not remastered and yet the hardest to find alongside with the chicagos that only release once the last years and not twice like the rest OGs are the most sought after 1s , its all about rarity after all .

Going OT, the BOOST material isn't actually that innovative-the way it was incorporated into the small capsules and steamed into a midsole was VERY innovative. Ironically, Nike's hyperfuse used heat to bake an upper using different materials "fused" together-all they had to do was approach lunar with this same method but instead of using an oven (which would likely melt and burn the foam) use steam which would make it malleable.
