ADIDAS ADIZERO ADIOS 7 - Long Run Shoe Test - EDDBUD

[@gerardosierra3768]

Great review Edd. Just answered my question to you in the members forum a few days ago. Great tip and advice on the narrow feel as I had noticed in the 6. Going to look into the wider version in the 7 for sure 😀 Thanks bud 👍

[@EDDBUD]

Many thanks for the support Gerardo. Hope the Adios 7 will work for you on the wide version. 👊👍🏼

[@mfmmel]

Great review! I love the Adios 6! I've got more than 200k on mine and it stick rocks everywhere! I'm afraid of the lack of support on the heel on the Adios 7. I've got some heel's instability issues. I just bought another Adios 6 on sale and maybe next year I'll try the 7.

[@EDDBUD]

For this one of the models with a little more outsole surface area might help. The heel counter is very thin in the Adios 7. Possibly even more than the 6. Thanks for watching Melissa 👍🏼👊

[@williamcass68]

Silent Hill…great flick. I’ve been wanting to check out the Adios. Thanks for sharing!

[@GoodFoShizzle]

At what point do we become Edd’s budds?

[@sledge144]

Not today I suppose, considering how many times he said Adios to us.

[@laurainthehaute918]

Thx for the laughs, Bud’s buds! Adios😂

[@oraclecommercetutorialshar2792]

Already Ordered Adios 7 and after watching ur video, my decision is cemented to go for this shoe. Regards from India

[@EDDBUD]

Enjoy and hope they work out well for you

[@nathaliec7330]

Loved the 6 and got the 7 today as it was on sale and I love this shoe when I want to get away from carbon plate high stake shoes to make a more natural ride at time during the week. Great travelling shoes for me. Great comfort in a light package 🙌

[@EDDBUD]

Superb shoe low profile and a great price!

[@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183]

You know how much I loved the Boston 8 & 9 (went through multiple pairs of each). I did try the adios 6 and it somehow felt a bit awkward on my feet so I didn’t take it out on the road for a trial…I still had a couple of Boston 9’s to go through anyway. However, this version looks like it may feel more refined as did the old Bostons for me, so I’ll want to try it out. Right now my only adidas’ are the last Boston 9 (which is relegated as a walking shoe), the Takumi Sen 7 which is mostly for track w.o.’s (but could be for XC) and the Takumi Sen 8 which I adore & used out of the box at BolderBoulder 10k. I think it even could go to HM for a lightweight like myself.

[@mikowhy9608]

That's where I'm at this moment too. Sticking with a 2 pairs of good old Boston 8's. I was waiting for Adios 7 review and I guess I shall wait longer for the 8th. Too narrow. Takumi Sen 8 will be my choice now. ...I guess I like no. 8 for some reason... 😎

[@sneakerprofiler]

Hello, solesister! I’m with you most of the way. I’m tempted by this one, but the Takumi Sen 8 has me wrapped around its laces at the moment. ✌🏽💙🏃🏽‍♂️

[@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183]

@@mikowhy9608 The Boston 8 was pretty narrow too so this might still work for you. It has a similarly missile-like look that reminds me of the 8’s. But yeah, the TS8 has me very spoiled. I’m saving it for racing only.

[@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183]

@@sneakerprofiler Exactly; the TS8 is as close to perfect as a shoe can be in my book. “Wrapped around its (cheap!) laces”! Lost of people complain about adidas laces but something that easy to upgrade (if you wanted to) isn’t a deal breaker for me. And they do not budge once you get them right.

[@sneakerprofiler]

@@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183 I find naught wrong with the laces… It’s supposed to exist within the adidas green initiative. It’s no surprise you and I are taken by another shoe, solesister. I’m spoiled by this shoe! ✌🏽💙🏃🏽‍♂️

[@parrotbrand2782]

Little stones do not get lodged in the fore foot because there is a lot of flexion, that widens the gap and they fall out. The heel doesn't flex much, so the stones stay there

[@EDDBUD]

Good point. Rock solid

[@ac-vp9mh]

My adios7 forefoot upper is starting to tear up after 60km on my true to size 8 5 UK. Very fast, light, and populsive with decent cushioning indeed. Conti outsule durable as to be expected. but they sacrificed too much weight to the detriment of upper durabilty. Good thing i got it for 40% off. Serial numbers are different on each shoe so i dont beieve they are replicas.

[@EDDBUD]

Haven’t seen anything like that before

[@iq_by_0303]

I think that the front kinda bents when you run, making the gaps bigger so that the stones fall out.

[@EDDBUD]

That’s a good observation

[@NeillyVille]

Getting hot again Ed, whats the plan for rest of week?

[@EDDBUD]

Just been out. Insanely hot still. Legs already tired from walking miles and miles on my “holiday rest”

[@kcchan270871]

Too hard midsoles for Adios and Boston shoes to me. I am sticking to Pro 3 for medium pace running, and Alphafly for fast running.

[@EDDBUD]

Don’t find the Adios hard at all. Needs a little breaking in but not much

[@shouryanegi703]

I am training to run for a marathon sub 3:30 hrs should I buy peg 39 or adios 7 .. am a little confused

[@EDDBUD]

It depends what you want it for. Peg more versatile. Adios better for speed

Definitely a fan boy of the adidas adios 7, on the less is more bandwagon for sure! Looking forward to the adios 8….👟👍

[@luciwolte9204]

Well I am a big fan of the Boston 7-9 from Adidas, and I was a bit disappointed by the Adios 6. The boost in the Boston was much more comfortable then the Adios 6. And the Adios are awkwardly loud. My tip for a shoe in this category ( Old Bostons, New Adios ) definately are the Skechers Razor Excess.

[@joneaton3366]

What about a lightstrike Pro and boost medley midsole

[@chrisbates8943]

Loving the Adios 6. Only 45k’s on them so far, the Lightstrike is definitely softening.

[@MadelnMachines]

Great looking shoe. The wide version colourway isn't. I always find Adidas too narrow unless i size up half a size and then the shoe is too big.

[@Francisco-dl1nb]

dont buy this shoe!! I dont know whats happening, I dont know if its a manufacturing problem, I just keep seeing people w the EXACT same rip, inside edge, a bit close or behind to where the big toe starts. At first it felt tight and hurt my back heel a bit, but once they broke in they were PERFECT. and that's why I'm incredibly sad to have noticed a rip, after 60-70k in the first month. I'll keep running in them since I already spent the money :/ It's a shame cus I truly enjoyed them. If anyone more experienced than me knows of a model with around the same weight (10-15 more grams is fine) than the Adios with a better upper quality, please let me knowwww. Would rly appreciate it.

[@EDDBUD]

Haven’t seen too many issues like that.

[@yudhistiradw1971]

Its durable for 800km++ ???

[@EDDBUD]

Maybe not that far. I think running shoes are good for 300 odd miles. Then change them up

[@ThatRunnerAaron]

Must say, absolutely love my pair of adios 7’s. Ran my 10k PB in them Sunday just gone at 42:30 & they were just sublime, was considering using the vaporfly next%2 but opted for these & I wasn’t disappointed I used the adios 7. So responsive & snappy. What a great shoe for the price.

[@EDDBUD]

It’s a brilliant shoe. One of the best around especially for the price.

[@philault2854]

Great review Edd. Perhaps Adidas just needs a bit more draft on the tread lug shape to help it shed the stones.

[@sneakerprofiler]

This shoe is tempting, but I’m stuck on the Takumi Sen 8. I experienced some level of Achilles and hip in a few different models, but never in adizeroPro, Boston 8/9 and/or Takumi Sen 8. My current rotation is limited to the Takumi Sen 8, and I’m breaking out Terrex Speed Ultra (the Boston TR) this week for some road and light trail work. The Speed Ultra will factor more through the winter. I have Takumi Sen 6 and Terrex Speed Pro when I want something more aggressive. I’m stuck on these options, but I’m willing to try other low(ish) stack LIGHTSTRIKE PRO models. ✌🏽💙🏃🏽‍♂️

[@vexy2355]

Are those long lasting bcz i wan buy them for 5k running?

[@EDDBUD]

Yeah not bad but the sen 8/9 is better for that.

[@tomek7000tj]

Theory is that stones get stuck in both heel and forefoot, but as you heel strike you shove stones in outsole and forefoot just bends as you run widening a bit those lines so stones get out of it... heel does not bend so you got stones inside heel outsole. Production mistake, those lines in the back shoud be thicker and triangle shape so stones can not get stuck.

[@rAnge4Bl0w]

how do i know which is the wide version? can someone help me before i make a mistake

[@EDDBUD]

They list it as a wide version, though seemed to be short lived.

[@polinaichkova6644]

Got them today, extremely uncomfortable shoes both at the front and back, not sure how people run with those 😢

[@EDDBUD]

It’s firm and responsive. Sounds like you want a super shoe or soft cushion.

[@R251400]

Polina, They will soften up after 40 miles; I had the same problem when new but now the shoes are okay. Still would not recommend them at £110 though.

[@_Tp__]

After only 3 months my adios 7s got a rip in them around the front. I hope that’s just a one-off for me but it was quite a nice shoe until then.

[@EDDBUD]

[@MiracleWarriors]

Hey Ed , I'm loving my Boston 11 and if you can you should compare it with the Zoomfly 5 ! About the Adios 7, I believe that even that it is heavier then the Nike Streakfly Zoom x , it compares better with that shoe rather against then the Zoomfly. I just wish I had the Boston 10 as well to have felt the evolution towards the 11th version.

[@outerheaven8797]

Yeah must admit the Adios 7s have been a bit problematic for me. Not really run in them that much and already got a hole in the upper on the inside edge near big toe. Maybe should have gone for the wide fit ones.

[@EDDBUD]

Yeah sounds like a sizing issue there, thats sad

[@outerheaven8797]

@@EDDBUD yeah probably should have gone up a half size. I'll know for next time!

[@tav4755]

Yeah i got the 6 in january initially to replace the boston 9. I do like the shoe and its at 160miles. It feels snappier but the boston 9 had better grip. Over 400miles in the boston9. Where i could take the boston on 30k and 20 mile runs i cant push these past 14 though. The boost in the heel was more forgiving. this shoe is great for longer 10 mile and 12mile tempo runs or faster runs just feels like you control the shoe. The shoe doesnt control you. Perhaps thats why the boston 9 was liked so much. Will get the 7 on discount when ive run the 6 into the ground.

[@EDDBUD]

Yeah shame they made the Boston 10 a clog. Not even close to the 9.

[@nunoribeiro9833]

Hello. My size is 42. I went to a shop and tried to use the 43 but seems big. Maybe 42 2/3 is enough?

Ed, how do you compare it to SL20 and to RC4?

Great vid thanks, tell me, if the Adios 6 was perfect for me, would the sizing be the same in the 7s? Im UK9.5, should i go for the same in the 7s? Im buying online :) I have read that there is an additional 5 mm in the length on the 7s, is this true? if so shouldn't i go a half size down from the 6s? (UK9)

[@luqmananuar226]

Hi. I own a pair of Adiós 7. Yes you should size down half a size. I'm wearing 7 1/2 US on Adiós 5 while for the Adiós 7 I'm wearing 7US.

[@brokenfreddy7676]

Good to see you like the adios 7..I don't use any adidas that has the torsion gizmo in the midsole..every one I tried was flat and stiff with no cushioning and no bounce back..when I look back,I can see that I never liked any adidas shoes until the OG adios pro V1..as of now that and the Takumi Sen 8 are winners for me..jury is still out on the adios pro 3..couple of issues need attention to make it a 5k race shoe..

[@s0091986]

Ed! Love your vids. Does the insole come out in the adios 7? I've sent back a pair of adios Pro because I couldn't remove it - gah!

I’ve enjoyed my Adios 6’s, but at 265 miles, the outsole on toe off on the lateral side is almost worn down the the Lightstrike Pro. It’s been a great show as a daily trainer, just expected more out of the outsole like the older Bostons where I got we’ll over 400 miles in them.

[@micknitchell]

Here is Canada it can be difficult to get your hands on the wide version so I ordered a pair from somewhere in Spain. They came today and fit great. I put in a different, more cushioned, insole for fun and they feel fantastic.
