adidas Running shoes
adidas running shoes for the best performance
Without a doubt, running shoes are the most important piece of equipment for runners. With the right shoes on our feet, we can run faster, longer and further and feel more dynamic and comfortable overall - even over long distances. The wrong running shoes, on the other hand, can lead to injuries, signs of wear in muscles, tendons and joints and ultimately much less enjoyment from running.
That's why you shouldn't save money on running shoes. However, there are a few things to consider before you make your purchase decision. Choosing the right running shoe for you depends on your running style, fitness level, preferred terrain and a few other factors. But no matter which pair is right for you, with running shoes from adidas you'll always be on the right track and at least one step ahead!
From mother's laundry room to global corporation: the history of adidas
The adidas success story began very modestly in the laundry room of brothers Adolf and Rudolf Dassler's mother in the small Bavarian town of Herzogenaurach. From the beginning of the 1920s, the two brothers made sports shoes there and soon set about producing special shoes for various sports, including the first running shoes.
In August 1949, Adolf Dassler founded adidas AG and had the shoe model with the three parallel stripes protected as a trademark. The company name is made up of Dassler's nickname "Adi" and the first three letters of his surname. In the meantime, adidas has long since become a global company with a firm place among the major sporting goods manufacturers.
adidas has running shoes for every running style in its portfolio
Since its humble beginnings in mother's laundry room, adidas has continuously expanded its range of running shoes and adapted them to the varying requirements of different terrains and running styles. At Running-Point you will find running shoes from adidas in the following categories:
- Allround - all-rounders for different requirements
- Trail - perfect companions on uneven trails
- Competition - particularly light for even more dynamics and speed
- Spikes - optimal grip on the tartan track
Among the all-round running shoes from adidas, the Supernova, Pureboost and Ultraboost series are among the most popular bestsellers. The adidas Ultraboost, launched in 2015 with the recently introduced Boost technology, impresses with its casual design both as streetwear and in the performance sector. If, on the other hand, you prefer to run in the great outdoors, the adidas TERREX Trailrunner offers you a perfect combination of comfort and stability.
Among the competition shoes from adidas, the lightweight, well-ventilated and durable Adizero is the first choice for many ambitious runners. And those who regularly run on the tartan track like to rely on the adidas Sprintstar spike shoes to accelerate even more explosively.
What do GTX, COLD.RDY & Co. mean?
adidas offers its various running shoe collections in different versions, which can be easily recognized by additional designations such as GTX, COLD.RDY or WARM.RDY. But what is actually behind these designations?
- GTX is short for GORETEX. adidas running shoes with this designation are made to a certain extent from this breathable, water-repellent material.
- COLD.RDY are running shoes from adidas that keep your feet warm and dry even on cold and wet days thanks to PrimaLoft technology,
- while adidas running shoes with the HEAT.RDY label keep your feet well ventilated even in the heat thanks to breathable materials.
These materials and technologies are also used in adidas running clothing so that you can feel completely comfortable while jogging.
State-of-the-art technology for the best performance
For decades, adidas has invested heavily in the research and development of new technologies in order to provide runners with the best running shoes. The sporting goods giant from Herzogenaurach also cooperates with companies from other sectors. For example, adidas developed the revolutionary Boost technology introduced in 2013 together with the German chemicals giant BASF.
The aim was to create a midsole that provides soft and responsive cushioning when running. In the production of adidas Boost running shoes, polyurethane is first inflated into small, air-cushion-like beads, then melted and processed into a cohesive foam. This creates a midsole on thousands of small cells that absorb and release energy with every step.
adidas technologies for optimum cushioning
Another groundbreaking technology for running shoes from adidas is the Ground Control System, or GCS for short. When it was introduced, GCS was the first functional midsole system to separate vertical and horizontal cushioning. The sole consists of two thin, rounded plates lying on top of each other. The upper, immobile plate supports the heel, while the lower plate moves with the outsole in all directions. In this way, GCS enables smooth, controlled and improved running on a variety of surfaces.
Other innovative technologies that adidas has developed for improved cushioning in its running shoes are adiPRENE and adiPRENE+. Running shoes from adidas with adiPRENE technology are reinforced in the heel area with a cushioning material made of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), which protects the foot from impact forces. With adiPRENE+, EVA is used for additional cushioning in the forefoot area and creates a more dynamic, responsive running sensation.
