adidas Adizero Evo SL Men's Running Shoes
Experience the feeling of speed in the Adizero Evo SL. Inspired by the innovation of record-breaking shoes in the Adizero running family - and specifically the Pro Evo 1 - the Evo SL is designed for you to run in it, or not. Combining Adizero technology with a bold and unique racing-inspired aesthetic, it's an evolution of speed in all aspects of life. A responsive layer of LIGHTSTRIKE PRO foam in the midsole provides comfort and cushioning for optimal energy return.
Synthetic and Textile Upper
Offering a comfortable layer of protection, the Adizero Evo SL has been designed using a synthetic and textile upper. The fabrication ensures the shoes have a sock-like fit, providing your feet with exceptional airflow to keep feet cool while ensuring feet are comfortable and encased. The shoes feel flexible with support in key areas, and perforations to provide a constant supply of fresh air for your feet to thrive. A textile lining has also been used on the upper, increasing comfort while the lining sits softly against the skin, reducing chafing and irritation when running. A padded collar sits closely to the foot to further enhance comfort, while the flat-laying tongue reduces irritation. Completing the upper is a traditional lacing system that locks the midfoot for a secure fit.
Lightstrike Pro Midsole
adidas' signature Lightstrike Pro technology has been embedded into the Adizero Evo SL. The Lightstrike Pro foam compound provides endless energy return from heel strike to toe-off. It features hundreds of visible energy capsules that store and unleash energy when your foot hits the ground, charging every step. When your heel hits the floor, the midsole compresses and stores kinetic energy; when transitioning to mid-stance, it relaxes and releases stored energy, propelling you forward with an explosive take-off. The midsole also spares your joints as you strike hard, unforgiving surfaces and propels you forward, providing explosive movement and enduring speed. The light and springy ride supports your feet through the gait cycle whilst remaining as lightweight as possible, ensuring you can reach new PBs.
Durable Rubber Outsole
Manufactured from durable rubber, the outsole completes the Adizero Evo SL with a superior grip and a smooth transition through the gait cycle. The outsole features Continental rubber on the forefoot and clear rubber on the heel to supply optimal traction on wet and dry surfaces, giving you no excuse not to get out and run. Finally, the outsole is designed to be just as durable as the Lightstrike midsole, for a resilient, cushioned and grippy running shoe.
