wow alison dos santos, lyles and knighton adidas truly has the best and most talented athletes in them sprinting distances, even in the 400 there is gardiner from the bahamas and in long distance stuff they have elite marathoners, jacob krop, nicholas kimeli or rhonex kipruto and kibiwott kandie good job adidas. there is just no one really in the 1.500m they have sponsored who is performing great

Makes me excited to make the move from Nike to Adidas after I recover from my surgery

[@totallyraw1313]

Have you recovered from your surgery now?

[@jasonreyna7615]

I made the move from Nike to adidas senior year, don't regret it one bit. I used the adidas demolishers back then, 8 spike plate if I remember correctly and the plate would make you run on your toes, super stiff but loved it...the zipper design, all the goodies of the way spikes were not too long ago.

[@yeet76231]

I loved the original Prime SP, but the cemented spikes on the bottom were a big problem. I wasn't allowed to wear them at state, so I had to borrow a friend's spikes

[@MBedell-VA]

What are you talking about? The spikes are removable on my sons spikes. he has the SP

These should weigh 119g (4.2 oz) in size us 9. Got mine today (us 10.5) and they weigh 191g (6.7 oz). It's a big difference compared to advertised and to my previous Adizero Prime sp which weighs 134g (us 10.5). Have changes been made to the material after the launch? They are way too heavy now.

[@oil1620]

tradeoff for a carbon plate , just look at the midsole its not possible to have more spring at the same weight.

[@juliusmwangi6651]

Noah ran a 19.32 in these shoes 😲😲

[@ABUNDANCEandBEYONDATHLETE]

So Michael Johnson would have run faster with this shoe?

Stiff as morning wood

Something about adidas, I feel like they pay more attention to the detail that always goes unnoticed.

[@OlympicSeason]

Copped a pair for the upcoming season, super excited to try these out. Always rocked adidas spikes in high school

[@fantasticfootballmoments9743]

Where’d you buy your pair??

[@OlympicSeason]

@@fantasticfootballmoments9743 i got it off the adidas website when it was very limited stock for a bit. They had my size so i just copped.

[@hikerboater]

Question about the Adidas. How much do yours weigh? I bought the green (mint) ones with black stripes (ID1736), you show the black ones with green stripes (HR0225) . These green (ID1736) weigh more than an ounce more than advertised, around 5.5 oz. Advertised weight is 4.2 oz. I’m thinking there must be a difference in model run production of these shoes.

[@zikotronics5074]

I’m glad you know dragging my foot isn’t that bad! Lol

[@noahmichelli758]

Will this spike be like the maxfly where it is meant for 100-400m but can be used for the 800m competitively?

[@stephaned3072]

No.for 800 it will be better you take the ambition

The finesse is more comfortable than the sp2 or sp3. I ran very slighty faster in the finesse. But it's all preference. I thought i would of run faster in the sp.

[@aarondavidson907]

Fun fact about the history of adidas and sprinting. In the 60’s, Puma developed a revolutionary spike that helped their sprinters break records in the 100 and 200. In advance of the 1968 Olympics, Adi Dassler himself walked into IAAF with a briefcase full of cash and paid out $70,000 in bribes to make sure that they banned that spike

[@euan1234]

and that was the company his own brother had created! (although I gather they were not on the best of terms, especially by that point)

[@muhammedmustafa3176]

Adidas sp2 or Nike maxfly. I'm confused

[@Trackreator]

Adidas fits a bit more tight and when you run into them you feel the ground more close to your foot. They are also more stiff than Nike. I suggest you not to buy Adidas if you haven't good sprinting mechanics *and* much power bc they have very high angle of contact. (the value of the angle made when you hit the ground with the ground itself)

[@juwanrigby1924]

@@Trackreatorwould you rather the sp2 or maxfly for a 60meter dash

[@Trackreator]

@@juwanrigby1924 remember adidas has a little bit more energy return but at the same time they are more stiff and that is important because you could kill your feet. Anyway there aren't many differences, go with what brand you like more.

[@juwanrigby1924]

@@Trackreator I’m about to have both I already have uptempo depending on which one feel better I was gonna stick to it for the 60 and use the sp2 for 1 2 and 4. I’m a short sprinter 5’8 and I need that energy return so I can last long in the 1 and 2

[@shumlai1506]

When will the Adizero Prime SP feature the integrated non-removable “nano-ceramic” pins again? It’s the lightest design and I want these again.

[@ckthedreamchaser3483]

Probably sp3 lol

[@135Pandemonium]

The last iterations of SP1 had removable pins. You missed a couple of updates...

[@yeet76231]

Non-removable spikes sucked. It was a great spike, but I couldn't wear them at state and a few people I know had similar problems

[@higherenergyalwayswinss4446]

Thats the spike I use next season

[@prestonrabe]

makes no sense to use a soft distance and road racing foam for a sprint spike... the reason these don't compete with the maxfly is the fact that they use a bouncy zoom bag instead of foam

[@kevinjasso47]

[@zigfreid123]

they added a lip for dragging ??!?!?!?!?

[@jambo5936]

Dragging wears down the tip of the shoe and the lip protects the shoe from that

[@zigfreid123]

@@jambo5936 I am aware of that , just happy they finally did . I have destroyed many a shoe doing so .

[@robinbauer1975]

this or ambition for 800M?

[@runningwarehouse]

I would definitely consider ambition for the 800m. As fabian noted, a few elite athletes who really enjoy aggressive shoes have considers the prime for 800m but they really are going to be best suited for 100m and 200m. The majority of runners will not be able to handle it past 400m. -Connor

Cool but the percentage of runners that's interested in track spikes is so tiny. Hopefully the road running adios line gets the same media time because this seems like a poor use of marketing resources
