FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon distances?
Yes, their lightweight and responsive design is well-suited for long-distance efforts for runners who prefer a responsive feel.
Do I need to size up from my usual adidas size?
The Adizero Evo SL fits true to size for most runners, but always ensure your specific UK size is verified against your foot shape.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While designed for running, the stable platform is sufficient for moderate gym activities; however, they are optimized specifically for forward-motion running.
How often should I replace these trainers?
As with most performance running shoes, expect to replace them every 300 to 500 miles depending on your running surface and gait.
Are these waterproof?
No, the upper is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to penetrate if running in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during corners
Ensure the laces are tied snugly to secure the midfoot lock-down.
Foam feeling flat after usage
Rotate your running shoes to allow the foam compression cells time to rebound between sessions.
Accumulation of grit in the upper
Remove the insole after your run and gently tap out debris, then wipe the upper with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Adizero Evo SL trainers, ensure a proper fit during your initial try-on, allowing for a thumb's width of space at the toes.
- Compatibility: These are neutral road trainers. If you have severe pronation issues, consider an orthotic insert, though consult a specialist first.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the LightstrikePro foam structure.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material degradation.
