adidas SL20 Running Shoes

When your running shoes are comfortable, you don't think about your feet. You think about going a little farther. Or a little faster. You're free to push yourself in these adidas running shoes. The mesh upper is breathable and supportive. Cushioning in the midsole is light enough for explosive speed and responsive enough for total comfort. 3-Stripes inspired by Japanese calligraphy make them look extra speedy.

Breathable Mesh Upper

Designed to provide a lightweight, supportive and breathable fit the upper of the adidas SL20 Running Shoes have been constructed using a mesh upper. The lightweight mesh allows cool air to circulate throughout the upper to ensure you remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times. Perforations within the fabric increase airflow, promoting a better healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. The upper also wraps the foot in lightweight support to ensure a structured fit so you can go further for longer in complete comfort. This will mean that you will feel like you can push yourself further and faster than ever before. Completing the upper is a lace closure system which locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.

Lightstrike Cushioning

The midsole of the SL20 has been constructed using lightstrike cushioning that delivers the optimal balance of lightweight and responsive cushioning. Designed to provide responsive cushioning without the weight, the midsole combines energy return and stability into one of the lightest TPU foam on the market. Lightstike spares your joints as you strike down on hard, unforgiving surfaces whilst also propelling you forward to provide you with explosive movement and enduring speed. The light and springy ride supports your feet through the gait cycle whilst remaining as lightweight as possible to ensure you can reach new PB's. Completing the midsole is a torsion system that moves with the foot for a smooth, supportive transition from landing to push-off. The system exists to increase stability and allow the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently for added protection, control and an easy heel-to-toe transition.

Continental Rubber Outsole

Developed using a continental rubber outsole, the adidas SL20 Running Shoes ensure extraordinary traction in wet and dry conditions. Inspired by tyre technology, Continental rubber supplies traction on wet and dry surfaces, giving you no excuse not to run. Ensuring multi-directional grip the outsole ensures traction on varied terrain ensuring confident footing whether you're training or out for 10k. The durable rubber provides a strong grip on the most challenging terrain; it works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. The outsole is designed to be just as durable as the midsole, leaving you with a resilient, cushioned and grippy running shoe.
