Adidas Adizero Adios Pro: New colors, with world records in Prague and Valencia. The duel between Nike and Adidas is tightened. Our RUNNING SHOES section brings us today the latest news and successes of the German brand ADIDAS.

The newly released version brings innovations such as LightstrikePRO and EnergyRods carbon rods. With them, Adidas already has two world records: Peres Jepchirchir broke the women-only Half Marathon world record at the RUNCZECH Half Marathon in Prague. Kandie scored 57.32 in the Valencia Half Marathon last weekend, as you can see in this video summary.

ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO: COLORS PREMIERE WITH WORLD RECORDS

After the first launches of carbon plated shoes, dominated with an iron hand by Nike, the German counterattack is already achieving outstanding successes. Adidas created the Adizero Adios Pro with a single goal: Develop the fastest shoe ever in the history of the brand. To do this, the collaboration of some of the best athletes on the planet* has been essential, including Joyciline Jepkosgei and Rhonex Kipruto. The last color update was released last 1DEC, after the previous edition of the silhouette sold out just 15 minutes after it went on sale.

Impossible to have a better premiere, achieving three world records: It was the shoe chosen by the current world half marathon recordholder(chrono only women) Peres Jepchirchir. It was also Kibiwott Kandie’s bet to win the best half marathon ever, with four men under 58 minutes.

As a historical curiosity, point out that the new color of adizero adios Pro pays homage to the heritage of records held by the adizero family. In particular, the one achieved by Haile Gebrselassie at the 2008 Berlin Marathon with the Adios Naftenga Solar Yellow, one of the most traditional colors in Adidas.
