Allbirds Unveils Tree Runner Go
Designed with exploration in mind, a sneaker to take your feet wherever your mind wanders
SAN FRANCISCO, April 22, 2024 – Allbirds' latest launch has arrived: The Tree Runner Go. This new addition to Allbirds' Tree franchise boasts an elevated design, extra cushioning, and improved durability, all packaged in a light, breezy material that’s perfect for when you're on the move.
The Tree Runner Go is inspired by the brand’s best-selling silhouette, the Tree Runner, and features several innovative upgrades, including:
Breathable upper for when adventures heat up: Allbirds' signature Tree material combines tree fibre—TENCEL™ Lyocell—with recycled polyester for a cool, soft, and lightweight feel. The added recycled polyester enhances the material's strength, flexibility, and durability, and has a lower climate impact than conventional virgin polyester.
Durability to withstand any detours the day brings: The upper is constructed with a new yarn spinning technique that improves durability by up to 50x.
Ultra-cushioned midsole for long days on your feet: More of Allbirds' SweetFoam™ underfoot stacks up to a midsole height of 45.5mm at midfoot, providing a cushioned, forgiving feel. (14% more SweetFoam™ underfoot and 12mm more height than the Tree Runner, for comparison). SweetFoam™ is made with sugarcane-derived Green EVA, unlike typical plastic, petroleum-based midsole foams used in footwear.
Elevated design that suits any setting: Fine knit detailing across the upper, and a brand new midsole look with line detailing, add texture and expression for a more refined style that transitions seamlessly throughout your day.
The Tree Runner Go ($120 USD) is available in full and half sizes across both men’s and women’s. The new style is available in five colourways, online and in stores beginning April 20, 2024.
