![]() ![]() The midsole is composed of Lightstrike Pro and Energyrods (instead of a carbon plate, these are rods which almost look like a skeleton foot). It’s sticky and helps my confidence while trying to take turns quickly.Īpparently Adidas widened the shoe platform for additional stability, which explains why it’s a viable race day option for us. The rubbing probably goes along with the lacing lockdown problem.Īdidas uses a Continental rubber outsole on the Adios Pro 3. Some ended fine, while others ended with pretty gnarly blisters. Also, I had heel slip and Achilles rubbing on a few of my runs. This seems to be an issue others have, so hopefully it gets addressed. It’s also not easy to pull the laces tighter. It takes 2-3 times finagling with it to get a good lockdown without hurting. Hands down the most frustrating part of the shoe is the lacing. I also find the shoe feels way better when running compared to standing or walking. The good news is the platform doesn’t curl up and dig in anywhere (a problem I noticed in the Hoka Rocket X 2). My foot hangs over both sides in the midfoot. ![]() I also don’t think there’s much arch support. I think the toe box is accommodating enough to wear.

Some shoes will have links to my full review, and others will offer summaries of shoes I have worn but received after others on our team reviewed them (it turns out very few companies care about doing pre-production runs of wide shoes).Īs any runner with wide foot problems knows, the list of companies who cater to us is pretty brief. I’ll give you the good, the bad, and everything in-between. Instead, this is a list of almost every wide shoe that I’ve run in that’s currently available. Now, this is technically not a “Best Of” list (although my favorite shoes are indeed in here). There are dozens of us, dammit! So this is a place where my fellow wide fam can view all the good options that work for us folk who can’t squish into those “normal” width shoes. As all wide foot runners know, we’ve been shunned for far too long. PSA: This is Jarrett’s wide foot running shoe roundup, and this is a safe space. UPDATED (this list is evergreen so bookmark it)
