Ultraboost 5X

Daily TrainerRelease date 2024-07-18Global

Ultraboost 5X is a cushioned road running shoe for everyday mileage and longer runs. Its Light BOOST midsole works with a Torsion System between heel and forefoot to support a smooth, steady stride. A PRIMEKNIT upper molds to the foot with a sock-like construction and a regular, lace-secured fit. Continental rubber provides traction in wet and dry conditions.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
The registered 274 g value retains an unconfirmed sample size. Current Japan IH2588 gives 275 g at 27 cm, while the maker's same-IH2588 press block gives 262 g at 27 cm. US JQ2919 gives 9.7 oz at US size 9. No conversion, average or numeric replacement resolves the conflicting source scopes.
Plate note
The exact Japan IH2588 and US JQ2919 pages explicitly name a Torsion System supporting heel-to-forefoot movement. Neither identifies its material, so whether the structure contains carbon remains unknown.
