Our read
adidas's main marathon racer: light, firm-bouncy and steady, for runners who want a stable super shoe on race day.
Ride
Lightstrike Pro foam over carbon-infused Energyrims gives a stiff, propulsive toe-off. The low 5 mm drop keeps the platform planted.
Fit
adidas says it fits true to size. The Lightlock 2.0 upper uses one-way stretch textile for a close, locked-in race fit.
Best for
Marathon and half-marathon race day, and long race-pace sessions.
Avoid if
You want a soft shoe for easy miles, or you need a lot of support — it is a narrow-feeling race shoe.
