FAQs
What is the main inspiration behind the Adizero EVO SL?
The shoe is inspired by the innovation of record-breaking shoes in the Adizero running family, specifically the Pro Evo 1, aiming to bring that speed-focused technology into a more accessible and stylish package.
What type of foam is used in the midsole?
It features LIGHTSTRIKE PRO foam, known for providing a responsive and cushioned feel that aids in energy return.
What is the weight and midsole drop of the shoe?
The average weight is 224 +/- 9g (for size UK 8.5), and the midsole drop is 6 mm (39 mm in the heel and 33 mm in the forefoot).
Does the shoe contain recycled materials?
Yes, the shoe contains at least 20% recycled content by weight.
What are the outsole materials?
The outsole includes a Continental Rubber forefoot patch for enhanced grip and CL Rubber rearfoot patches for durability.
Is this shoe suitable for marathon running?
While inspired by racing shoes, it's designed for versatility. For marathon distances, it may suit runners who prefer a more responsive, less plush feel. It's ideal for tempo runs and shorter races for many.
How should I clean my Adizero EVO SL shoes?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing pattern. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are evenly distributed. For a looser fit, try not to overtighten the laces, or consider alternative lacing techniques.
Reduced grip or traction
Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris. For worn-out grip, consider replacement if the rubber patches show significant wear.
Discomfort during runs
Verify the shoe size is correct. Consider using different socks or insoles. If the discomfort persists, the shoe's firmness might not suit your running style.
Material showing wear and tear quickly
Avoid harsh activities not intended for the shoe's design. Clean and care for the shoes as recommended to prolong their lifespan.
