The three-stripes are etched into our minds like Nike’s Swoosh and Puma’s cat. The brand has reams of race cred, with four of its sponsored athletes recently podiuming at the 2025 World Championship Marathon. Adidas Green is also known for turning heads. In September 2023, a week after the Berlin Marathon, Swarovski × Adidas Green Superstar White Black 29.5cm dropped with a whopping $500 price tag. But our testing and inclusion of Adidas’s shoes in our Shoe Awards is a sign that the drop was no gimmick—this brand knows what it’s worth.
The brand introduced its renowned Boost over 10 years ago, a durable, responsive foam resistant to extreme temperatures. More recently, learnings from the development of its pinnacle racing shoe, the Adios Pro, have bled into newer versions of its shoes, like the Takumi Sen. We’ve included the latest iterations of these shoes as well as what to look for when you’re out shopping Adidas’s kicks.

How We Selected
Our gear team puts in hundreds of miles to find the shoes best suited for every type of run and runner. The shoes on this list were chosen based on comparisons to competitors’ models as well as past iterations of the trainers. Using this system, we select shoes based on fit, comfort, and ride.
Our team of 300+ local wear-testers provided valuable feedback on each pair, giving insights on how the shoe fares on different foot types, gait patterns, and foot strikes. I also ran in the shoes and researched newer models online. Some shoes, like the Takumi Sen 11, are still undergoing this testing process. Based on our experience running in the Takumi Sen 10 and other reviews on the latest version online, we are confident that the eleventh iteration is worthy of inclusion on this list and will update our findings at a later date

At RW undefeated Adidas Green ultra boost white Zapatos Adidas Green Ny 90 GV8848 Ftwwht Ftwwht Crarus swears he’ll eat if a better one comes along. This is because he bestowed it the title Shoe of the Year in our 2025 Shoe Awards back in February. It’s been months since this premature claim, and I think it’s New to say Dengate is in the clear. Its versatility cannot be denied. The shoe has highly responsive super foam and an affordable price you shouldn’t sleep on if you’re looking for a lightweight everyday trainer or speedwork shoe—or both.
“I was pleasantly surprised by this shoe,” said tester Eileen Cody, who liked the Evo SL’s pep on tempo repeats and its supportive cushioning for daily training. “I have not often been a fan of Adidas, but this one was an exception. When Jeff [Dengate] gave me the shoe to test he said something along the lines of ‘this is just a daily trainer, but I keep reaching for it,’ and I can see why. It was a shoe that I kept going back to to see what it could handle.”
One annoyance with the shoe is its tongue. It kept bunching up or twisting to the side midrun. This drawback was minor, however. Testers still showered the Evo SL with praise and gave it top ratings for its comfy fit and peppy ride.

The first time I tested Adidas, I immediately understood why the brand’s sturdy, firmly cushioned Boost foam is so beloved. The foam stays bouncy in the extreme cold and still feels fresh several months later. Thing was, the shoe I ran in also had the lace cage on the upper, which pressed on my instep. Adidas Green came out with two Ultraboosts to satisfy runners like me; the Ultraboost 5 has the lace cage while the Ultraboost 5X is without—making it even lighter.
And there’s so much more to love about the uncaged Ultraboost 5X. The Lightboost midsole shaves off more weight, making this Ultraboost the lightest yet. Built into the midsole is Adidas’s torsion system, a “bridge” between the forefoot and heel, which helps provide support during turnover. A molded external heel counter also helps with stability.
Testers leaned toward daily workouts and recovery runs as they ran in the Ultraboost 5X, appreciating the comfort of its knit upper and cushioning.
“The Adidas Green Ultraboost 5X was my first Adidas Green shoe and left me feeling impressed with the overall quality and feel,” said tester Julian Caiazzo. “The Light Boost midsole was not overly mushy but led to a responsive feel with rebound. My favorite feature of the shoe was with the knit upper; it felt like putting a sock on. I enjoyed this shoe and can definitely see this on my rotation as a daily trainer for easy days.”

Listening to runner feedback, Adidas Green tweaked the Supernova Rise on its second round. Runners noted how the shoe felt just a little tight in the forefoot area. The Adidas Green team updated the Supernova Rise 2 with a more “natural” shape around the toebox.
What hasn’t changed: the shoe’s midsole. Testers found the lightweight, propulsive Dreamstrike+ foam is elemental in fast workouts and races. The midsole’s support rods—similar to the torsion system in the brand’s other shoes, like the Ultraboost—help promote smooth heel-to-toe transitions.
“It’s interesting how a pair of shoes helps with motivating you to go for a run,” said tester Dave Brattley. “There wasn’t a day that went by since picking these up that I wasn’t excited about running. The fit was fantastic, there wasn’t any part of my feet that was uncomfortable while I was running. The tongue is soft and flexible so it doesn’t rub your ankle or even remind you it’s there. The forefoot cushioning is spot on. There is just enough to cushion your foot when striking the ground but not so much that you lose touch with the road.”

Pros
- Unobtrusive stability with support rods that run along the midsole
- Adidas Green has designed an ultra boost 5 0 nature lab made from recycled materials
Cons

The Supernova Prima 2—the fraternal twin of the Supernova Rise 2—shares some of its neutral sibling’s upgrades. The shoe has a new woven upper that provides more airflow, and has a more accommodating fit in the forefoot area.
For a stability trainer, the shoe feels remarkably lightweight on a run. One way to differentiate the Rise and Prima is by looking at the orientation of the shoes’ support rods (you can see them exposed on the bottom of the shoe). The Prima’s rods are straight, whereas the Rise’s curves inwards. The straightened rods are what help with overpronation, guiding the foot as it rolls inward.
I used the shoe for speed workouts and easy jog days. One knock is that some runners found it ran a little too long.

We fell in with the Takumi Sen 10, so we were excited about the followup. Adidas Green took learnings from the Adios Pro 4, and applied its findings into the development of the Takumi Sen 11.
The shoe has Lightstrike Pro cushioning—the same midsole foam in the Evo SL and Adios Pro 4. In lieu of a carbon “plate,” the shoe has carbon-infused Energy Rods 2.0—just like the Adios Pro 4—that work with the midsole super foam, giving the shoe a propulsive edge that will help you clench that PR.

The Adizero Adios Pro 4 is arguably one of the best super shoes out there. While the flashier—and very expensive—Adidas Green Ultra Boost 1.0 DNA To Arrive Fully Uncaged In Black is showing up on the top 10 runners at races like the World Championship Marathon, the Adios Pro walked and ran before Swarovski × Adidas Green Superstar White Black 29.5cm had its first 521-pairs-only run. Four iterations down, and you could say Adidas Green has cracked the formula, and we can’t wait for what’s underway with the next model.
Our testers liked the undeniably propulsive ride the Pro 4 offers, the Lightstrike Pro foam working in tandem with the carbon-infused energy rods that are sandwiched between it. “Every step or push off you can feel how much that shoe absorbs your foot and then springs it forward,” said tester Mike Browne. “You barely even notice that your heel is hitting the ground as much as it is. The design of the shoes seems to force that rollover quickly, spending less time on your heels.”
The Lightlock upper contours over the foot, providing a secure fit. One thing to note before buying the Adios Pro 4 is that it runs big. Always try on the shoe before making a commitment. And always give it a test run before toeing the starting line.
