I finally retired the Takumi Sen 9 at 400km. ‘First run in the rain with the Adios 8. I really like the shoe - It feel like a better tuned adizero Pro (Remember that shoe, Edd?!?). The new nylon torsion system may not be equal to rods, but the system keeps the runner honest in terms of form. It’s definitely a 5-8k shoe for me. This shoe probably feels “slappy” the moment form gets sloppy. Wider yet shorter toebox is better to the aPro. The lack of any plate means no jolts through the Achilles. It feels a lot like a max cushion version of the Takumi Sen 6/7. The setup is near identical. The TS10 released this week in the U.S. - Finally. But I’ll have fun in the adios 8 before picking up my next “super shoe”. ✌🏽💙👟

Great review… though I disagree about the similarities between the A8 and TS9. Sure they are both lower stack shoes but one is a modern racing flat and one is an outright super shoe, very different shoes. Though I agree, depending on the runner, there is a lot of use case overlap. I just published a video comparing the A8 and TS9 directly, where I really get into the differences. I love your term, “a more engaging shoe”; I fully agree!

@kenfromphilly752 Жыл бұрын
I'm in camp that TS 8/9 is a supershoe regardless of stack/cushion. If you classify supershoes as only marathon racing shoes, it isn't. It's a carbon plated (or energy rodded?) racing flat for 5K to 1/2 marathon, because of the lighter weight due to less LS midsole than Pro 3. It's definitely subjective. 👍

Of the Adios 8, Boston 12, Takumi Sen 9 trio I got recently am so far finding the Adios 8 most to my liking. So far done a HM training run in it plus some 400m intervals which split with the Sen 9 and the Adios 8 went just as well. Interesting about the weights as my 7 and 8 in a UK 13.5 are near identical with (rarely these days) both my 8s coming in at 273g versus 274/278 for the 7. The 6 I only had in a "too small for me" UK 12.5 but that was 297g so the effective weight drop for me 6 to 8 is marked. Agree got to like a low to the ground feeling and although the Lightstrike 2 is softer it is certainly still a "responsive" ride but that slightly softer feeling over the 6/7 I certainly prefer.

On landing the adios is closer to the ground but has more midsole up front on the toe off phase. The next2 tapers aggressively from the ball of the foot to the toes(rocker geometry). For that, I don’t mind the adios’ stack height.

Can I gor for marathon 10 kilometer with adios 8?
@EDDBUD Жыл бұрын
Personally for most it’s a 10k to half shoe

How suitable for a long run... Slow... I am considering it because it's half on tarmac and half on gravel so high stack is not stable enough..
@EDDBUD Жыл бұрын
For gravel? Avoid this due to the torsion plate.
@TimGrose Жыл бұрын
Actually thought it worked very well on gravel for me. Part road, part firm trail/gravel is where I will likely be using mine and indeed where have often done so with previous versions.

Which is better the ultra boost or the adios
@EDDBUD Жыл бұрын
Very different shoes underfoot. The boost is a firmer cushion. These are very low stack compared.

@@EDDBUD thanx for the reply I already have a pair of ultra boost dna I wanted to upgrade my shoe so I was considering which one to buy because the adios and ultra boost are on discount and I was confused which to buy, so according to you the adios are more comfortable then the ultra boost right? (For casual use )

is this good for race day or marathon?

10k maybe. Lacking in cushion for most folks for the half.

Is the adios 8 less stabile than the previous version?
@EDDBUD Жыл бұрын
Still very stable. A little more forgiving than the last one.
