Adidas unveiled its next piece of ambition into the union of speed and technology on Tuesday with the new Adizero Adios Pro Evo 5 as increased weight saving and more energy return come front and center for the latest iteration of the Adios Pro lineup.
The shoe is now 12 percent lighter and gets foam and carbon stiffening element efficiencies have driven a 9 percent energy return boost in a package that is 24 percent lighter than its predecessor, weighing an average of 177 grams.
Energyrim technology allows for a greater volume of Lightstrike Pro foam directly beneath the foot, while a super grippy outsole is a team effort between LIGHTTRAXION technology with Continental rubber.
A redesigned Lightclock 2.0 upper features engineered ventilation zones, internal support bands and an updated heel construction that creates a more secure race-day fit.
The Adizero Adios Pro Evo 5 arrives on September 22 for $275 via Adidas.
