is adidas going to drop any more adios pro this season?

They disappeared like instantly and now being flipped at over twice the price?

Is it a covid supply-chain issue or are they doing it on purpose?

Nike doesn't seem to have a problem cranking out vaporflys

I suspect we won't see that new asics until after the Olympics.

It's actually very tough to find the NEXT% in normal sizes. They always sell out within a few days.

Go to Nike.com and you will see them in all sizes, pinkish color though.

Apparently they are making v2 of the Adios, which look like clogs.

You aren't kidding, but since those are early prototype photos I would guess it's for adidas athletes in the olympics and not the public until after summer

Hoping adidas isn't planning on nothing more until/after summer, that would suck

That is a ridiculous stack height, if it's legal it matches the alpha I guess but considering their foam is heavier, that's a 10+ ounce shoe right there.

Wait I see retail tags on that. Wow, it is really soon? But wtf is with the overlays? That's like a throwback to v3 adios/bostons and adds weight, have they learned nothing from VF upper?

The thick stack thing is their Tempo Next %...higher stack, training shoe, illegal for racing. The Adios Pro 2 is the new version, and I’d not count out Adi on uppers (the current effectively has an overlay too with the mesh and the grid thing). The Boston is going to be the Endorphin Speed to the Adios Pro’s Endorphin pro, stack height and all. Just a light strike/light strike pro sandwich (with energy rods).

The Adios 6 looks like what the Boston is now, higher stack than a traditional Adios (looks like a Boston style stack) just with a light strike midsole and Lightstrike Pro in the forefoot like the Takumi Sen with the Lightstrike/Boost thing.

No. The VF is only available in 4.5 and lower and 15 and higher. The AF has more availability because it’s a flop of a shoe.

You know what's weird is it's like the Takumi is now the adios racer, the adios is like the boston.

And I don't think it's an accident but on purpose.

I'd be okay with this if prices and availability were like years ago. I've run for years with dozens of $40-$50 Bostons, $60 Adios, $80 Takumi but no more.

The odd thing about $200 shoe lines is it seems to increase the price of low end shoes.

I mean the Skechers Hyper (plateless) series should not be a $120 shoe, no way. It's a mono-block of foam and a cheap upper, cheap glued insole. Compare that to the complexity of what was the Adidas Adios v3
