No, we don't have a link because they can't even be found on Adidas's website.
They're discounted everywhere else including Adidas outlets, so probably discontinued.

Adidas has a “4%” shoe in the early production stages right, with one prototype already made and wear tested. It’s coming that’s for sure!

Please, moran. The Boston is superpopular in running circles...their flagship "serious runner" shoe. It's going absolutely nowhere.

Seriously, they have to. They're being killed right now, the sub2 was a step back as a race day shoe (though it looks good to train in).

Adidas messed up with all that Kanye and lifestyle focus, which did make them money and threw nike of their throne. Adidas was killing it up until 2018. But they got away from pure athletics. NIke stayed the course, and really upped their game with athletic performance
Nike didn't fall for the banana in the tailpipe and go lifestyle with their running line. They'll drop different colors, and let people color id, but they didn't move away from running performance. Adidas got away from that, and now they are paying for it.
I noticed the new adidas adios 4 is very vanilla, with simple color ways, so it appears that Adidas is getting back to performance and simplicity.
Nike was in the shitter for awhile with all that nike free running crap, but they saw the light and got back to what they do best. I will never be a nike shoe fan. I'm more into their apparel, and I wear new balance and adidas. But Nike really is killing the running game right now, but Boost is still superior in my opinion ( It lasts forever, and works in all weather conditions).
I have to say, though I was meh about the sub-2 at first (including racing a mile in it - not a great shoe for that distance), I've fallen more in love with it for the longer stuff.
I wore it for all of my long runs this marathon training cycle, including 21 milers with the last 7 at marathon pace. It really shines at that marathon pace effort, and I'm actually torn between using it or the VF 4% for my marathon.
[keep in mind that I weigh less than 110 pounds, and so my experience with that shoe may differ from others]
I know my Hyperions are illegal based upon the new IAAF rulings. Please don't take them away.
Good luck running a marathon with a Sen/Ren.... if you want to destroy the shoe and get injured go ahead guys.... those are 10k shoes top. There is a reason almost every Adidas top guy has stuck to Adios and that shoe has held quite few WB's before Kipchoge. In any case MK is super light (

Flagship was the supernova Boost, but they’ve changed that shoe so much it’s unrecognizable
I don't understand how Adidas has such incredibly poor distribution/inventory of Adizero models in the US. Don't even get me started on Sen/Ren.
Shopping for race-worthy Adidas shoes is like trying to find beluga caviar.

is the sub2 really discontinued? got a link?
Yes , discontinued .
So get them from Japan.
So who's going next to Japan to bring back ALL the Takumi left on the planet?
Because apparently they've got them all over there in stock, every colorway, Sen AND Ren
https://shop.adidas.jp/products/CM8250/
https://shop.adidas.jp/products/BB7726/
even the sub2 is in stock in Japan but I'd rather the Takumi
I think that's $150 USD though, a bit marked up, I guess that's full retail?
My gosh, why does Japan get all the toys, look at these colorways!
is this a white-on-white primeknit adios with zebra pinstripes?
brb moving to Japan, sold out online but maybe in stores...
This is nonsense. If you're a mid or forefoot striker, then the Ren is an excellent marathon or long run shoe. It has more forefoot cushioning than the Adios. In fact, so does the Sen.

Give it a try and good luck with that

The Takumis did seem to disappear and the Adios become more scarce around the same time the Sub2 came out, but that's just conjecture. It seems like Apple disproved the idea that cannibalizing your own sales was certain death, but the idea might still hold in the US specialty shoe market or be believed to be true, and Adidas might have figured that people won't buy Takumis and Sub2s and tried to push people to the Sub2. Just a w.a.g., really. There does seem to be a relationship between the Sub2 fading away and the Adios 4 coming back out, but then again....
The japanese, and Asia in general , don't wear or like heavy shoes. Their running population wear shoes that are more close to the ground, so they are not interest in shoes with huge offsets. There is a huge demand for adidas racers in that region, so there is a market for it.
In North American it is quite the opposite, people want shoes with huge platforms, and our continent is flooded with heavy set people. Adidas racers, as well as Mizuno racers will just sit on the shelf.
It's disgusting.
