What i ordered wasn’t delivered. Wrong colour sent, I ordered white and black and green was sent, The shoe box was extremely damaged and all text in Chinese. I don’t believe the size was 9.5 either as compared to my Boston 12s ordered also from here that are really good, they were way too small. They have provided a full refund... Show more

Adidas adizero audios 3 pro
As running shoes they feel great giving really good forward propulsion. I feel that I will be really competitive in races with these shoes.However, the cleat type shoe holes do dig into one of my feet, hopefully this will resolve itself over time. Additionally, they felt ‘wobbly’ when running on road with camber.Overall, good value for money, hoping for some good times.... Show more

Bouncy carbon plated speed for all
This is my third carbon plated shoe and it might be my favorite over what are considered the kings of the category. The stability at easy paces is top notch. I tried out heel striking just for kicks, and didn't notice any wobbliness, either. Marathon and half marathon paces were easy to hold, but it did take a few minutes to really lock in my half marathon pace, as I was going about 20 seconds faster than I wanted to. My only knock on the shoe was the fit on my right foot. The heel slippage was a bit much during my first run and the tongue rubbed a bloody mess into the front of my ankle. I was able to mess with the lacing and fix it the next time out, but the heel hold was noted by many "shoe-tubers" and should be kept in mind. It's an issue, but not one without an ...

FAST!!!
I mostly use these for 10K and 10 miles road races. Sometimes on the track.They're fast!!! I went out 15 seconds too fast in my last 10K. I was too busy looking for room and was quite surprised at the one mile mark.Noticeably faster splits when I use these on the track.Definitely make my legs last longer too. Cuts my time down by 4-5%.Yes - they can chew up socks. First time out the toes of my socks were shredded. I sized up half a size and found a sock with a more durable fiber that also grips to my shoes - perfection!... Show more

Great runners!
After two pairs of Nikes previously (alphafly and vaporfly) which I was very impressed with, I decided to give these a go (mainly due to the lower price point).After a couple of outings I can say that they stack up well against the top flight Nike models. They are very stable and extremely responsive. I’ll certainly be sticking with Adidas as long as they don’t mess with the design too much in the future.... Show more

My Daily Trainer
I had the Pro 2 shoes before these and using them daily was able to increase my mileage from 30 to 55 weekly. Pro 3s are even better. If used daily they will save your legs enabling you to train harder. Fantastic shoe, don't save them for race day as they wear really well compared to other super shoes due to the Continental rubber outsole.... Show more

Nice long distance shoes
I like them a lot! Only thing is that I have to tape my Achilles to avoid rubbing issue… love the outsole and insole. The lace can take a bit to figure out but else than at my heel I have no upper rubbing problem! They look very cool! I’m typically 6,5 women for a long run shoes and they maybe run a bit long! But overall I’m very happy about them... Show more

OUCH
Well, looking for the next great super shoe and these are not it. The upper is an absolute disaster, so rough that it literally tears into your socks, and it's really hard to get a good lock down. Also, the heel collar is brutal as well, first, the bumpers seem to be a bit too high and they are so rough. If you hit the rear of the heel collar it slices into your achilles. I do like the cushioning, but, these are suppose to be the most stable in this line, and going around corners you really have to slow down. Good heel to toe transition, but I'm sticking with my Vaporflys for racing. I couldn't imagine running a marathon in these. I'm kinda sick of these stupid energy rods as well, really would like more structure to a carbon plate. I've got about 50 miles on them, ...

I've got about 50 miles on them, mostly tempo to threshold work and I'm so tired of them chewing up my feet. Needs a whole new upper material, sorry environment.... Show more

Super speedy shoes
I absolutely love these shoes! They are so light and incredibly speedy and really make you run like you’ve got a rocket up your bum..! I gave them 4 stars, as on the first 4 occasions wearing them, they rubbed my ankles and caused blisters due to the poorly placed hard stitching and thin material. I seem to have broken them in now and they really do make you run much quicker with much less effort. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to go back to another shoe..!... Show more

Teriible Uppers
Tried to make these work for me. Ran about 60km (4 mainly temo runs) and they just got worse. The stack and tension rods are bouncy and quick but the uppers just tore my feet up. The first 2 eyelets the laces go through create indentations on the inside of the shoe that creates a pressure point on the foot. Got the metaspeed sky+ after this and they are way better....
