FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday training?
While excellent for speed-focused training and racing, their advanced design is optimized for performance. For very high mileage or recovery runs, you might consider a shoe with more forgiving cushioning.
How do the ENERGYRODS 2.0 work?
These carbon-infused rods are strategically placed within the midsole to provide a stiff yet responsive structure, enhancing forward propulsion and ensuring a smoother transition from foot strike to toe-off.
What is Lightstrike Pro?
Lightstrike Pro is adidas's most advanced and lightweight cushioning foam, offering exceptional energy return and plush comfort to help runners maintain speed and reduce impact.
How do I choose the right size?
We recommend referring to the adidas sizing chart and measuring your foot. Given these are performance shoes, a snug, secure fit is often preferred, but ensure there's no discomfort or pinching.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
No, the Adizero Adios Pro 4 features an outsole designed for road surfaces. Trail running requires shoes with specific lug patterns and protection for uneven terrain.
What is the main difference between Adizero Adios Pro 3 and 4?
The Adizero Adios Pro 4 builds upon the previous model with refinements to the Lightstrike Pro cushioning and ENERGYRODS 2.0 for enhanced energy return and a smoother ride, focusing on marginal gains for elite performance.
How durable is the outsole?
The Continental™ rubber outsole is known for its durability and grip. However, like all running shoe outsoles, wear will occur with high mileage, especially on abrasive surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly. Try different lacing techniques to alleviate pressure points. If discomfort persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning or energy return over time
This can be a natural sign of wear after significant mileage. The advanced foams and materials are designed for peak performance, and their responsiveness may decrease with extensive use.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While designed for grip, extremely slick conditions can challenge any outsole. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris that could impede traction. For prolonged wet running, exercise caution.
Upper material feels stiff
Allow the shoes to break in gradually over a few runs. Synthetic and textile uppers can take a short period to mold to your foot's shape.

Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For more thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Proper storage helps maintain the integrity of the cushioning and upper materials.
