adidas Solar Drive 19 Running Shoes

Feel confident on your daily run. These men's shoes have a breathable mesh upper that's designed for an irritation-free fit. A Solar Propulsion Rail helps to guide the foot from touchdown to toe-off. Responsive cushioning returns energy to your stride.

Engineered Mesh Upper

Constructed using an engineered mesh, the upper of the Solar Drive 19 provides an abundance of flexibility, breathability and support. Designed using research based on Aramis insights, the mesh has been specifically engineered to provide more support in places its need the most and less support in areas where free movement is important. Not only do the perforations determine levels of support they also work to increase ventilation so you can remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times. The mesh allows cool air to circulate inside the shoe whilst, at the same time allowing hot muggy air to escape; creating a perfect microclimate for your feet to thrive in. A textile lining has also been used on the upper to increase comfort, the lining sits comfortably against the skin and reduces the risks of chafing and irritation from ruining your run. Completing the upper is a lace closure system which secures the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.

Boost Midsole

A lightweight Boost engineered midsole is embedded into the Solar Drive 19. The boost foam compound provides endless energy return from heel strike through to the toe-off phase of the gait cycle. It features hundreds of visible energy capsules that store and unleash endless energy every time your foot hits the ground, meaning that every step is charged. When your heel hits the floor, the boost particles compress and store kinetic energy; as you transition through to mid-stance, the boost particles relax and release their stored energy, which propels you forward with an explosive take off. The boost midsole will change your runs forever, thanks to its energy-returning properties. In addition, when the boost capsules compress to store energy, they cushion the foot from impacts. The boost particles only compress so far, which means that they also provide light support whilst on the road. Completing the midsole is a Solar Propulsion Rail which works with boost to increase stability for a smooth, distraction-free run. The rail helps to guide the foot through the gait cycle for a more dynamic run and better performances.

Adiwear Outsole

Developed using an adiwear outsole, the Solar Drive 19 Running Shoes ensure ultimate durability and traction. Made from a highly durable rubber compound, the outsole lowers the amount of pressure that is generated during the footstrike and in turn, lessens the impact on your feet to minimise injury and provide increased performance. The outsole has a wider platform in the forefoot for enhanced flexibility whilst enhanced impact zones to ensure traction and durability where it is needed the most. The outsole is highly durable meaning it will resist the general wear and tear found when running plus, slightly raised lugs also work to increase traction underfoot.
