FAQs

What is the weight of the adidas Switch FWD 2?

The trainers weigh approximately 295g.

What is the midsole drop?

The midsole drop is 10 mm.

Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?

Yes, the Continental Rubber outsole provides excellent grip in various conditions, including wet surfaces.

How much recycled material is used?

The design incorporates at least 20% recycled materials.

Is this a wide-fit shoe?

No, this is designed with a standard regular fit.

Can I use these for trail running?

They are best suited for roads and light paths; the outsole provides great grip, but the midsole is optimized for hard-surface energy return.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability on uneven terrain

Ensure laces are tightened correctly across the midfoot to prevent internal sliding.

Debris getting stuck in midsole voids

After running on gravel or dirt, gently tap the soles against a wall or use a soft brush to clear the voids.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Innovative midsole design creates unique energy return
Continental rubber provides industry-leading grip
Durable upper construction for long-term wear
Environmentally conscious design using recycled content

Cons

The unique void-based midsole offers a distinct feel that may not suit every runner
Slightly heavier than minimalist racing flats
Limited to a specific regular fit which may not accommodate wide feet

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these guidelines:

Break-in Period: Because of the unique outsole geometry, take 2-3 short runs to allow your feet to adapt to the compression dynamics of the midsole.
Fit: Use the secure lace closure to dial in your comfort. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your toes and the front of the shoe.
Cleaning: Clean the outsole after muddy runs by wiping with a damp cloth; avoid machine washing, which can degrade the adhesive and recycled materials.
Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the outsole rubber.
