FAQs
Are these spikes suitable for all track distances?
The Adizero Prime SP 3 Strung are specifically designed for short-distance sprint events (e.g., 60m, 100m, 200m, 400m) due to their rigid spike plate and aggressive design focused on explosive power and speed. They are not recommended for middle or long-distance running.
Can I use these spikes on surfaces other than a track?
No, these spikes are optimized for synthetic track surfaces. Using them on asphalt, concrete, grass, or dirt paths will significantly reduce their effectiveness, damage the spike pins, and potentially cause premature wear to the outsole and upper.
How do I clean my Adizero Prime SP 3 Strung spikes?
Brush off loose dirt after each use. For the textile upper, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap for spot cleaning. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat.
What type of spike pins do these shoes use?
These spikes use standard pyramid spike pins, typically 6mm or 7mm in length, which are common for sprint tracks. Always check competition rules for allowed spike lengths and types.
Are replacement spike pins included?
Typically, a set of pins and a spike wrench are included with new spikes. However, it's always good practice to have spare pins and a wrench on hand for replacements.
How much recycled material is in these spikes?
This product features at least 20% recycled materials by weight, contributing to adidas' efforts to reduce waste and reliance on virgin resources.
Are these spikes machine washable?
No, these spikes are not machine washable. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe. Follow the manual cleaning instructions.
Troubleshooting
Spikes feel loose on the foot.
Re-lace the shoes, ensuring an even, snug tension from the toes to the ankle. Experiment with different lacing patterns if standard lacing doesn't provide enough lockdown.
Lack of grip on the track.
Check the spike pins. They might be worn down or too short for the track surface. Replace worn pins with new ones of appropriate length (e.g., 7mm for most synthetic tracks, consult track rules). Ensure all pins are present and securely tightened.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks designed for performance. Break in the spikes gradually with shorter runs before intense sessions. If discomfort persists, re-evaluate the fit; a different size or width might be necessary.

Setup:1. Lacing: Ensure laces are tight but not uncomfortably restrictive, providing a secure, snug fit around your foot. Double-knotting can prevent untying during intense sprints.2. Spike Pins: The six spike pins are typically pre-installed. Ensure they are securely fastened before use. If you need to replace them (e.g., for different track surfaces or wear), use a spike wrench.Compatibility:These spikes are designed for adult athletes participating in sprint track and field events. They are unisex and come in various UK sizes. The specialized spike plate is optimized for synthetic track surfaces. Using them on asphalt, concrete, or grass will not provide optimal performance and may damage the spikes or cause premature wear.Care:- Cleaning: After each use, gently brush off any dirt or track debris from the spikes and upper. For the textile upper, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals.- Drying: Allow the spikes to air dry completely after use, especially if they have gotten wet. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.- Storage: Store your spikes in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage. Ensure spike pins are covered if storing with other items.- Spike Pin Maintenance: Regularly check spike pins for wear. Replace worn-out or broken pins to maintain optimal traction. Always use the correct length and type of pins for your specific track and competition rules.
