Both models are very effective on a variety of terrains and Adidas Originals France Soldes conditions. The main differences are that the Riot 6 has a softer rubber that is much sticker on rocks, and is actually one of the stickiest outsoles I¡¯ve ever used, even when compared to shoes like the La Sportiva X-Country and Mutant which use approach (rock climbing) shoe rubber. The Raven 3 outsole is not as sticky, but plenty adequate for almost any trail condition. Its best feature is the ¡°adaptive traxion¡± component, which includes the yellow circular lugs that are designed in such a way as to depress at a much lower pressure than a traditional lug. The result is that the shoe runs really well on hard and smooth surfaces, and yet is still effective on loose terrain and off-trail. It feels stable at all times. Hard to pick a winner in this category as they are both very good outsoles with very different characteristics, but I might give a slight edge to the Riot 6 due to how fantastically sticky the rubber is while still allowing float on hardpack. 7. adidas Raven Boost ¨C While a shoe in this spec category (11.5 oz and 10mm drop) would not normally be on my list, I¡¯ve been reading good things about it from Sam Winebaum here and elsewhere and love the simplistic design of both midsole and outsole Adidas Originals Pas Cher using quality materials (Boost and Continental rubber) and what looks like a nice, soft and comfortable upper. Adidas really looks to be stepping up their game in the trail market this fall which has me excited. OutsoleBesides being a fan of adidas¡¯ midsole compounds, I also generally like their outsole designs and compounds. The XT 5 has three different compounds with their proprietary Traxion on the lateral and medial forefoot (outer forefoot ¡°ring¡±), adiwear on the heel (heel ¡°ring¡±), and Continental rubber (which is fantastic) on the ball and middle of heel. The latter is great for traction on rocks, even when wet.The biggest change adidas made to the XT 5 outsole from v4 was that they significantly reduced the lug depth for v5. I think this was a good call as it makes the shoe run much closer to its road counterparts than the older XT models. It has sufficient traction for technical terrain, but it handles hardpack great and even runs ok on the road. Having run in the adidas Energy Boost shoe myself a few times I also wonder if there is a certain thickness of midsole material required to provide any actual benefit. The Energy Boost has about 9-10mm more material under the heel than under the forefoot. As someone who doesn¡¯t load my heels much when I run, the Boost did not feel all that different to me than a typical EVA shoe. But, if I forced a more pronounced heel strike I could really feel the bounciness that the Boost material provides (you can also feel it when walking in the shoes). My suspicion is that there is simply not enough Boost under the forefoot to provide a meaningful benefit. An Altra Torin or Hoka style Boost shoe would be an interesting thing to try!So my take is that if you are a heel striker, Boost may provide a bit of an economy benefit for you in a very well cushioned shoe. If you are a midfoot or forefoot striker the benefit will likely not be as noticeable. Different shoes likely work better for different gaits. adidas released version 2 of the Adios Boost earlier this year, and Adidas Originals Femme France I again heard positive responses from other runners. In particular I heard praise for the new upper, which was supposedly a bit softer than the somewhat stiff, scratchy upper on version 1. I bought a pair to give them a try, and have now put about 40-50 or so miles on them, including a long run of 15+ miles and some speedwork on the track. Mainly what I¡¯m going to do for the rest of this review is compare version 2 to version 1, and highlight major differences (there are onl Adidas Originals Femme Pas Cher y a few, one of which is important). adidas Adipure Adapt side |
