What was Mutai wearing in NYC? He usually wears the Adios, but these looked different. The Adidas stripes were horizontal. The man is a total BEAST!

Any idea what's Emmanuel's shoe is? Red in colour, but ain't the Feather. Stripes were horizontal. The upcoming Hagio perhaps?
Anyone have high resolution shots from the race? I could identify the shoes if I could see them. All I've seen are tiny stingy thumbnail sized images.
It's not the shoes...
G.Mutai was wearing the Adizero Feather...WOW....I didn't think it was a pure racing shoe...more of a lightweight trainer.
Found it. E. Mutai was wearing the Adios 2. Pictures from here.
These pictures only confirm to me that there is absolutely nothing fun or enjoyable about running a marathon other than stopping. The same can be said for hammering a nail through your scrotum.
What? That shopping for the hammer and nail is better then the nail going in...
E Mutai is wearing the adiZero adios 2 Grete W version.
G Mutai is wearing the adiZero Prime LT. These shoes were not ranged in the US.
They're both sold in the US. Grete addition sold at the expo and in the city. Feather (not prime) sold online in a variety of places. Both around 7 ounces with the Feather being more training flat heel to toe slop/offset and adios w less offset.
Both of them were wearing the Adizero Adios 2. You can read about it on Competitor and you can see promo pictures of the adios 2. It's the same one they're wearing
No, G. Mutai was wearing Adizero Feather.

This is correct:
G. Mutai wore an inline adizero Feather
E. Mutai wore the special NYC Grete Waitz adizero adios 2
