The new silhouette arrives with the same ambition with which asphalt legends are forged. This shoe is the result of months of engineering, altitude testing in Iten (Kenya) and collaborations with top athletes such as Yomif Kejelcha and current marathon champion Tigist Assefa.

The Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2 is built on a radical technical foundation with a new midsole that adds an extra 3mm of LIGHTSTRIKE PRO EVO foam in the forefoot; a grid patterned outsole in the forefoot designed for surgical traction in every stride; and the iconic Rocking System, which positions the rocker in 60% of the shoe for a faster, smoother transition.

‘The challenge was ambitious: to make our fastest shoe even faster without increasing its weight. And we have succeeded. The Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2 is the result of months of development, altitude testing in Iten, Kenya, and working with world-class athletes like Yomif Kejelcha. We have created a shoe that is more energy returning, more efficient and more agile. We’re convinced it’s the best running experience we’ve ever designed,’ explains Patrick Nava, vice president of product at adidas Running.

The aesthetics follow the minimal high-tech codes that characterise the Adizero family. Clean lines, a futuristic silver finish and the three stripes in red.
