[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoe itself is fairly good as a running shoe. Fits snug. Only two criticisms: 1) The laces are a bit annoying, and hard to untie due to their design, and 2) The side stripes came unglued for me within the first couple of months. I only use them on the treadmill as well, and have not even been running outside. Was quite disappointed with this.
Everything about the shoe was promising until I put it on. Once I started walking the tongue was saggy and rubbing at the bottom near the beginning of the laces. I felt like a thick rubber piece just rubbing against my toes and made this squelching sound. I believe this is most likely a flaw in the design and the choices of materials and their thickness at such a particular area of the shoe. It’s sad because these were going to be great but i can’t imagine getting over the feeling sound and the problems that would come with rubbing/blistering. Change the thick material on the tongue and you might have a good shoe.
I have owned multiple pairs of EVO SL's and these are surprisingly the best version. The upper is a little stiffer than the originals to make them water resistant but it locks down better than the original. The increased traction is easily felt underfoot and I think the thicker continental rubber adds a bit more stiffness to the foam, making it very fun at faster paces. I was able to set my HM PR wearing these at sub 7 pace and they did great. Only warning I would give is to not wear them on rough trails. On a long run in Shenendoah the midsole foam cracked on some rocks and the upper also took a beating.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great looking shoe, and a bit more stable that my evo SL. Think the shoe is heavier, though and rebound is nowhere near as good as the SL. It's definitely a much more robust product with superior grip
A shoe is a type of footwear intended to protect and comfort the human foot. Shoes are also used as an item of decoration and fashion. The design of shoes has varied enormously through time and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function. Additionally, fashion has often dictated many design elements, such as whether shoes have very high heels or flat ones.
These would’ve been the perfect shoe. Comfort is amazing, but the eyelets dig it to your feet and the tongue constantly slips.
I purchased these shoes on the back of some excellent reviews on various YouTube running channels. First impressions - these shoes did not disappoint. Comfortable, lightweight and they looked great. However, after several runs (less than 10), one of the Adidas stripes peeled away while I was out running - presumably the glue to seal the stripe to the upper was insufficient so the stripe was left flapping about as a ran. Similar albeit smaller issues on other parts of the shoe. After spending 140 pounds I expected much better quality. On the whole I was left disappointed.
Great running shoes. Well cushioned and actually water repellent. I'm not a fan of the look of the lace though (too feminine for me), but they hold on tight.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shoes for my husband. He recently had a knee replacement and needed some better shoes. I bought these for him because I have them and love them. He loves how much cushion there is, but that they’re stable. The extra grip at the bottom is very effective.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fits true to size. the comfort level is off the chain
