It didn't meet my expectations. The styling and colour are perfect but the comfort of the shoe leaves a lot to be desired. There is a hard raised instep that has never been in any other pair of Adidas runners I've owned and it makes wearing these uncomfortably, I'm hoping over time I'll either get used to it or it will soften.

The shoe is larger than normal so my foot is loose in it. The sole is hard as well.

Very poor quality for Adidas. The bottom rubber started falling off after very little use. The mesh on the top of the shoe ripped leaving a 2 inch tear.

Overall shoe is good. However, the innersoles are terrible. Started to wear a hole in the big toe within the first day. By day 4 the innersole had completely torn through and broken away. Contected Adidas via Messenger. Apparently because the product had been worn, there was nothing they could do to resolve the issue.

Developed a large hole in fabric, just below laces, after just a month of occasional wear -- right after the return period. Annoyed with the poor quality. Not what I expect from Adidas.

The shoes were great when new, but only after a couple of months, the inner sole started to crumble. It would actually come off as gritty material on my socks. It got so bad that chunks of it started breaking off and coming out on my socks. Now very little of the top layer of the inner sole is left, so the shoe doesn't feel comfortable. Also, I keep getting the gritty sole material on my socks. I would not recommend this shoe, and I will be contacting Adidas about the poor quality.

Runs at least half size big. All shoes are made so differently in the past few years. Other Adidas in 9.5 fit perfectly but these (also 9.5) feel much bigger. I thought these looked great online but the price is what looks really good. These are in the "OKAY" quality. Comfort is not the best and they just feel cheaper in general compared to other Adidas. You can absolutely tell these are made more cheaply due to the materials, glue showing from the seam where the sole meets, and the inaccurate sizing. Adidas Alphabounce have been the most comfortable by far.

Pay attention to the reviews here. The arches are really funky. Also, the toe box seems small and my big toe just wanted to poke out of it. In the past, Adidas have been perfect for my wider feet. Don't know why companies can't stick with a good formula. Returned.

I bought them for my husband. At first, we loved them and they look really good. However, after a day of wearing them with light walking his feet and back was hurting him. We thought he needed to break them in but it's been a month and every time he wears them they hurt. Going to return which sucks because they look good.

The inner liner is made of material with which I'm not familiar. The liner is glued in place. The left shoe felt okay. The right shoe had a liner that was glued in place out of alignment. This caused the right inner liner to develop a prominent ridge along the inner seam where the lower meets the upper. This ridge dug into my arch. So I purchased Dr. Scholl's orthotics, and that solved the problem. Of course, the orthotics added $15.00 to the price of the shoes. These need to be tried on in a store, not purchased online. The quality control person at the Addidas factory was asleep the day they made these.

I purchased these shoes and 2 more like it and with in 1 month of wearing them the insoles started to fall apart. The insole is made up of a recycled material and does not last. This is the third pair of shoes I have had with this insole and they all fall apart.

They were comfortable enough , but the inner sole disinegrating after 5-6 weeks of wear ( 5 days / week , while working ) Is beyond ridiculous. It appears the comosition of the soles is made up of a good amount of paper-like material , it crumbled when I tried to remove the rest of the sole. They are now unwearable as It's been beyond difficult to remove the remaing section & if I were to try to just overlay new inner soles on top , I'd always feel it.

It's not a review of the product!!! It's a shame that a world renowned company works with a 1-star fit-for-nothing last mile delivery partner called LaserShip which has one of the worst delivery systems and worst customer service. Despite the worst reviews on many platforms like trust pilot, etc., Adidas still works with them for what ? saving a few bucks? At the cost of your own reputation? Leaving your customers dissatisfied? You should really rethink your brand partner team try to onboard these lack luster and insipid players.

Big brand, poor product. The shoe's sole started to break, and it got stuck in my finger, causing significant pain in just one month. Unfortunately, I missed calling customer care within the three-month window, and they denied assistance.

I received this in January ('23) and started wearing them in February ('23) by May the cloudfoam insole started deteriorating and pieces were making it impossible to have solid footing while walking. The beginning use was fine and comfortable but they are not sustainable shoes. My advice is wear them as soon as you purchase so they can disintegrate within the warranty timeframe.

Left shoe insole broke apart and is no longer functional, I have no foot support. I've used them for about 2 months. I noticed a chunk fell off from the ball of the foot. The heel portion has been deteriorating into dust and is no longer there. Attempted to file a warranty claim, Adidas replied with: "insole damages are not covered by our warranty simply because they can be torn or damaged depending on how the consumer uses the product." This is understandable; however, I'd like to bring up a few things: 1. The right shoe's sole is perfectly fine. -Why would I only use the left shoe in a way that can cause it to be "torn or damaged?" I wore them both at the same time, they went through the same conditions. 2. I have only used the shoes for about 2-3 months -The insole is actually falling apart and into dust, the left shoe is no longer usable without a replacement insole. How does this happen after 2-3 months of walking use? 3. It appears I am not the only one with this problem. Other reviews left here detail the same story. Insoles falling apart after a short time of use.

I'm rather disappointed in this shoe, since I ordered the same shoe about a year or two prior and those held up so well. For this most recent shoe, the inside of the shoe is made with some sort of eco friendly material that eroded away within the first few weeks of using it. Now the inside feels as though I am walking with rocks and paper rolling around inside the shoe. I received these shoes in November and have been incredibly busy with life since then. I am just now able to try to return these, but it looks like I'm out of the return window. Now I'm stuck with shoes that I wore a handful of times, that look great on the outside... but are completely destroyed on the inside.
