Adidas Adizero SL Road Running Shoe 2023

[@patrickvanderwal6324]

Upper overall a 9, but fit and comfort both a 6... 🤔

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

build quality for that upper, heel counter spot on. comfort score = what Patrick?? You've been watching for years sir, love you for that, but in case you forgot the comfort score is Upper AND Midsole combined, in other words, the entire shoe! That midsole is NOT comfortable. Happy New Year!

[@patrickvanderwal6324]

@@SethJamesDeMoor hey Seth! Happy New Year! I didn't forget. I was just thinking that if the upper gets a 9 and it is part of the comfort evaluation, then that midsole must be terrible to bring it down to a 6. 😉

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

@@patrickvanderwal6324 It's not terrible in performance, but not great in comfort (midsole)

Should I buy this adizero sl or supernova 2 x parley shoes ?

[@MM-zj4pd]

Don’t worry about the prices guys. Adidas is known worldwide to put their products (excluding football/soccer) on sale faster than anyone company else.

[@Ahonghekiaaksisj]

Yes

[@therangersinger]

Yeah, just bought a pair for $34 😂😂

[@MM-zj4pd]

@@therangersinger The statement I said is universally true :D Adidas puts all of their products on sale fast, and by a lot. It applies everywhere except football/soccer, where they are very popular

[@edwardwilliammorris1340]

True , just bought 2 pairs of Boston 11s for what one pair cost . Great shoe . 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[@BassTonix]

I’ve been waiting for this review! Definitely going to be picking this shoe up!

[@pranayama-running-Jendrik]

Uuuuhhhhh 😱😱😱😱 The Triumph 20 is gone out of the shelf 🥺🥺🥺🥺 When you love a shoe Seth it must be a special one 🥰🥰🥰

[@marathonrunner89]

:QOD: Honestly happy with where we live right now. 3.5 hours from the beach, 2 hours from the mountains. A little humid in the summer, but we can live with that.

[@djswany85]

A few sneaker guys have complained that adidas' sizing has been off for the last year or so. Need to size up in everything

[@prod1gy305]

Seth isn’t wrong about this shoe being shallow. I have to wear my thinnest socks I own just to be able to get inside the shoe without being strangled

[@ZaahirJappie]

And how does it feel over time? Is 1 index finger space enough space infront?

[@uhuhuhuhuhuh91]

As a polish viewer, I appreciate the Poland 4F jacket! ;)

[@thespacetime]

Isnt the Lightstrike pro encased with the normal Lightstrike? So the durometer test is just testing the outside part(lightstrike)

[@fuzzyduckize]

would have to be a town that has access to mountains for running and skiing, lots of bike trails for gravel/road biking, great Mexican food, a lake for water skiing runs in the morning with warm summers, sunny winters with snow, and near enough to a major airport to be able to travel!

[@ramblingrunner2172]

Wow, 6.5 score for weight is a surprise for a “steasy” day shoe. Lower than I would have thought.

[@zofiaschreiber4125]

QOD: I’m in college right now so I think a lot about where I want to live after school. Definitely somewhere very rural. I’m from northern NJ so probably there or more norther NY. As long as there are farms I will be happy 😂

[@MrLilgig]

Solarglide 6 vs Adizero SL which would you recommend ?

[@abdulkaderassubaihi5673]

Should I buy this adizero sl or supernova 2 x parley shoes ?

[@runningonplantsleerp2121]

QD when I retire in around 10/15 years time, I’ll sell my house in Ireland ( weather rubbish ) and buy a house in Italy with loads of land so I can start a vineyard! Plus I can run up the mountains and enjoy the hot weather

[@matthewkane9235]

Y’all know that my pegasus 36 has 500 miles and is still in good condition, it’s kinda crazy

[@justinmayes5455]

I love coming to read the comments. Top comment for a reason 😂

[@Feanaro5503]

How does it compare to the Takumi Sen 8?

[@michaelmangano4893]

QD: Dillon or Frisco. Currently in Denver (we’re spoiled, aren’t we?)😅

[@over1498]

Seems ok, I just don’t see why anyone would get this over something just barely a year outdated that outclasses it and is on sale for less. E.g. the Takumi Sen 8 and the Endorphin Speed 2 can be bought for $90 😅😬 I think that should always be mentioned as a consideration when giving it major points for being $120! I suppose the lesson is that everything goes on sale eventually so just don’t buy full price!

[@hemadpant6628]

I just bought it for $57.

[@christianpelchat2155]

Seth, do they remind you the old adidas Boston ? This was a shoe I liked.

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

Yes, they do, but this one is better.

[@tav4755]

Cant use a discount right now on these which is odd since when they 1st arrived you could. But now theres more colorways. Ill pick them up, but they look nerfed compared to the original sl20 from 2020. But thats what the adios 7 is for now i guess.

[@Supafloppy]

I'm not based in the US but I still think that $120 is a tad too much for this shoe. You could most likely get a Boston 11 or Adios 7 for less. Still conflicted by this one.

[@joshallen1846]

I just got these and done my first 5 miles in them and have gotten a blister on the arch of my foot? Is this a issue that will resolve once these have been worn in?

[@junriepuyos7510]

QD: Denver Colorado to meet you Seth. 😊😊😊 To learn more tips in running in person. ☺️☺️☺️

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

[@itsahardmuttlife9263]

No continental rubber is one of the reasons why it's $120.

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

hmmmm.... perhaps

[@muhammadchalili9989]

Is it carbon plated shoes ?

[@tonybowen455]

I like denver. Just wish the mountains were closer!

[@wdnmd94188]

[@robertnoland9156]

Sante Fe, the higher than a mile city!

[@treboltreacy9498]

It happend to me 👍🏻😉

[@thedawapenjor]

NYC for me.

[@maciejkuroczycki1863]

czy ja dobrze widzę ten zawodnik ma koszulkę Polska z orzełkiem - co się dzieje

[@Trailrunner1978]

Adios 6 and 7 is a much better shoe. It may in fact be the best running shoe ever in my opinion, together with Endorphine Speed 1.

[@ajmartinez1906]

I’ve always been intrigued of living in the mountains Maybe Colorado. Maybe We can swap locations.

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

You're always welcome AJ!

[@Shevock]

That's a good price.
