Customer Reviews adidas Running CLIMACOOL® Chill Open Mesh

Awesome shoe! Lightweight and flexible; it is great for running. Take a little time and break them in, and then you will be able to run for days. Absolutely no complaints about these shoes.

Too narrow for feet that are a hint wide than normal unless you wear ultra-thin socks.

I like the design, the style, and the light-weight feel of these shoes. And I know they are meant to be running shoes, but I'm not a runner. They may be perfect for running, but I do not recommend these for court shoes. They have very little grip on a court, and the way the sole is made creates a little flap that catches on the court and trips you. Overall, these are quite comfortable, and I will likely wear them for other purposes - just not on the court.

I was comparing this shoe w/ Nike Free Run+ (too narrow which is usually the case) and Asics GEL-Speedstar 5 (too tight overall) I have flat feet and up until a year ago have worn orthotics in my running shoes. Wanted to try something w/ less support. I find these comfortable doing short races like 5k's. I wouldn't run more than 5 miles on the road in them. For the treadmill they are just fine. Overall, pretty comfortable so far.

I like these shoes a lot. They're extremely light, and the colors are great. It should be noted that the perceived color changes depending on the color of your socks. The majority of the shoe is a mesh-like material, so some of the color beneath seeps through. This mesh also helps keep your foot cool, as it's quite breathable. The sole of the shoe has a series of chasms that extend from the ground up to the tip of the sole, which exposes some of the mesh. Be prepared for wet socks if you wear these shoes on a rainy day. Lastly, these shoes have a tight feel, particularly across the ball of the foot. I order a full size larger, and it's still pretty snug.

I love the looks of the shoe. I consider myself a size 13, so I ordered a 13, they were a tiny but short and very narrow, so I returned them for a size 14. The 14s were long enough, but still too narrow, so I'm switching them out again for something else.

This a great looking shoe, too bad Adidas dropped the ball on the sizing. The last pair of Adidas I bought in size 11 fit perfect, yet these are way too tight! What's up with that? Thanks Adidas!?

Returned, I wear an 11 dress shoe, 11.5 running shoe, and a 12 in Nike Free. Started with a 11.5 on this shoe since I did not have any reviews reference, it is short and tight. Take my word for it (20-30 miles a week) as a avid runner, the shoe runs small, I may try a 12. I am undecided. It is a neat design, something to compete with the Nike Technology, but Adidas has me confused with their sizing.
