Adidas Gazelle Mujer

It’s fair Nike Air Max Tavas Damen to say that adidas’s boost foam technology was a significant leap forward in the running industry, brands suddenly had to deliver new technology in a bigger way; they all had their named products and different selling points, but boost left a few floundering.
That’s not the case now with the recent development of ZoomX and React (Nike), Everrun (Saucony), FreshFoam (New Balance) and many more, plus it has recently felt like adidas have ever so slightly lost their way with their benchmark running products.
The new Adidas Superstar Womens Solarboost seems to counter this trend, a trainer that is built out of the need for a do it all running shoe focused purely on performace. Boost foam is proven to work, so that remains unchanged, but the rest of the shoe saw the designers and technicians taking it back to the drawing board.
Having spent some time at Nike Air Presto Femme adidas HQ discussing the trainer and crucially running in them, here is what it has to offer runners.
This is the new part of the shoe and there are some integral changes in appearance and performance. Using something Asics Gel Lyte 5 Mujer that adidas call Tailored Fibre Placement (TFP), a stitching process that allows for data obtained from pressure mapping stresses and forces placed on the shoes when in motion to add or remove structural integrity, the shoe upper is totally different to anything else previously made by adidas. The result is Adidas Superstar Femme Noir a reassuring structure around the top of the foot that helps hold the foot into the re-jigged heel counter (more on this below).
The toe box is built of a new stretch fabric that allows the foot to naturally spread but is contained in the shoe by the strips of plastic that run across the toe box (see picture below) adding necessary tension to the front of the shoe, something that knit construction sometimes fails to do. This stretch fabric extends into the tongue, which essentially acts like a gater/sock. The tongue has Adidas ZX Flux Womens Black also been flattened and pressure mapped to make sure it works in conjunction with the upper.
Something of real note worth mentioning with the upper is that pretty much anything that can be turned into thread can be used to build the shoe (they’ve tried carbon fibre etc). This has meant that adidas’s relationship Nike Air Max 90 Femme Noir with Parley has now stepped up a gear and each Solarboost is built using recycled plastic from the sea. To what degree is to be confirmed but some is better than none so that earns them a big tick in the ethical box.
Designed to reduce pressure on the achilles, the heel of the shoe will look familiar to some but it’s been updated; the heel cuff around the ankle has been reduced significantly to remove bulk, the heel counter has been widened to allow more room for achilles movement and it’s been designed to work in line Adidas Gazelle Mujer with the new guide rail that runs the length of the shoe, laterally and medially. The Torsion system also adds a small degree of structure to the heel (the orange pyramid of plastic in the picture below) that is designed to help those that heel strike for a more progressive transition through the gait cycle.
