ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 3: THE ULTIMATE RACING SHOE. Our RUNNING SHOES section presents today the 2022 version of this best-sellers shoe from the German brand, despite its high price of 250 €: the Adidas Adizero Adio Pro 3

During 2021, the Adidas Adizero Adios 2 has been the one with more victories in all the Marathon Majors with a 60%, so the new version has obviously a great foundation. The shoes will be available on June 23rd and come with a price of 250€, 215 grams and a drop of 6,5mm, with a stack high of 39,5mm/33mm.

ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 3:
THE ULTIMATE RACING SHOE
250€ | 215 G. | 6.5MM DROP

The adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 for women and men are neutral competition running shoes. This adidas model is designed to achieve a personal best in both a 10km run and a marathon. The fast competition shoes score with carbon and responsive LightstrikePro foam in the midsole.

In comparison with the previous version, the Adios Pro 2, this version 3 comes with more cushioning under the foot thanks to two layers of LightstrikePRO foam. This provides maximum damping and energy return. In addition, so-called “cutouts” were attached to the sole in the area of the forefoot, midfoot and heel.

This makes the Adios Pro 3 slightly lighter than its predecessor. And last but not least, the upper material – based on new anatomical findings – has been improved. For example, the heel cap is positioned slightly higher – for more support around the ankle.

ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 3: HIGHLIGHTS

  • PRIMEGREEN: Primegreen includes various high-performance recycled materials and stands for the adidas promise to completely eliminate unrecycled polyester and put an end to plastic waste from 2024.
  • ENERGY RODS: The result was five carbon-infused rods that lie adjacent to your bones – pegged by Adidas “Energy Rods” – which ensured an optimised energy return and allowed the wearer to maintain a high speed for longer.

UPPER

The upper is semi-transparent, particularly light and offers a well-enclosing feel, containing a minimum of 50% recycled content

In addition, it hardly stores moisture, which keeps it light continuously. Even on long, fast distances, your feet remain pleasantly cool.

MIDSOLE

The midsole is made of three layers of LightstrikePRO foam. This damping material stores more energy than any other damping material adidas has developed to date.

The energy return is particularly efficient, so that only little energy is lost overall. Between the three layers of LightstrikePRO material is a carbon plate under the heel and carbon-enriched EnergyRods under the forefoot.

The EnergyRods reflect the anatomy of the forefoot. These rods give back a lot of energy and offer flexibility. So you benefit from an energetic, reactive start. The carbon plate in the heel absorbs the forces acting on the heel landing.

Thanks to the geometry of these competition shoes, you will experience a powerful transition, so you can run faster with less effort.

OUTSOLE

Premium Continental outsole crafted to create traction.

 

 

ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 3: CONCLUSION

The carbon plate running shoes world is developing really quick and almost every brand has, now a days, one or two models with assisted plates. In the case of Adidas, the Adizero range has been competing since really long, and this new member in the family shows the clear intention of Adidas to continue in the podiums of many marathons and IRONMAN distance triathlons. During 2021, the Adidas Adizero Adios 2 has been the one with more victories in all the Marathon Majors.

In this case, the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 is a very fast competition shoe and is perfect for running long distances at high speed.

The Pro 3 falls into the category of fast carbon shoes for long distances, similar to models like the Nike Alphafly, ASICS Metaspeed Sky and the Saucony Endorphin Pro. But can be also used for lower distances, as the benefits of the 3 layer LighStrike and the carbon fiber plate are obvious to any runner now a days.

Obviously not a shoe to wear every day in every fast training otherwise the outsole will be worn out pretty soon, but definitively worth it the money if you are looking to rest some minutes into your marathon or half marathon personal bests.
