On June 16, 2021, adidas released a new and innovative masterpiece - ADIZERO series running shoes, ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 2, ADIZERO BOSTON 10, ADIZERO PRIME X, three in a row.
Among them, as a breakthrough over-distance running shoe, the ADIZERO PRIME X with a midsole of up to 50mm has attracted the attention of runners.
Today, let's briefly talk about the upper foot feeling of the upper foot ADIZERO PRIME X, and the difference between the ADIZERO ADIOS PRO 2.
1. Forefoot height 40mm, hindfoot height 50mm, midsole height difference 10mm;
2, US 9 yard weight 272 grams, the official price of 2099 yuan;
3, adizero Prime X uses a single-layer CELEMESH 2.0 upper, compared with the previous adizero adios Pro 2 fabric is less and lighter;
4, adizero Prime X compared to adizero adios Pro 2 midsole thickened by 10mm;
5. Adizero Prime X adds an additional energy carbon sheet of ENERGYBLADES on the basis of adizero adios Pro 2;
6, adizero Prime X outsole all use horse brand rubber outsole, adizero adios Pro 2 is a combination of horse brand + bald tire;
7, the difference in design caused by the difference in foot feel, because the use of a thinner upper, so the adizero Prime X breathability is better, while the support and wrapping are relatively weak;
8, the thickened midsole is to bring a more extreme foot feeling, and energy carbon sheet OFENERGYBLADES is to provide a stronger boost, but in terms of actual measurement, the overly thick midsole is relatively soft, and the energy carbon sheet of ENERGYBLADES has not achieved performance maximization;
9, because the upper is lighter, the main weight of this shoe is concentrated in the midsole, outsole, so in terms of actual wearing feeling, this shoe is heavier than the data, there is a clear sense of falling foot;
10, the illegal midsole may be the secondary reason why this shoe is not suitable for elite runners to race, and the excessive weight and weaker boost rebound relative to the adizero adios Pro 2 may be the main reasons.
The adidas adizero Prime X is indeed more suitable as a daily training shoe than a race racing shoe, and can be seen as a high-profile low-end training shoe for the Adizero adios Pro 2.
