adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 Reviews

Paolo Corsini says it remains very fast and responsive after 400+ km. The rods and Lightstrike Pro continued to support him beyond km 30–35 of a marathon, with less fatigue than in the Vaporfly Next% 2. The basic laces and unpadded tongue are fiddly, and the heel-strike rubber wore through.

Their Adios Pro 3 is at about 250 miles and has only got better, feeling noticeably better than new; reckons the break-in is about 50 miles.

A 200 lb runner, 20 miles into the Adios Pro 3, calls it a blast: the most energy return of any shoe they've had, a secure fit even with soaked feet in humidity, and it seems durable, though the heel collar digs into their Achilles.

After 430 miles of threshold, marathon-pace and long runs plus a marathon, praises the Adios Pro 3's midsole and outsole durability and breathable upper, though it needs patience to break in and get a comfortable lockdown, and suits midfoot strikers.

A 123 lb runner who uses the Adios Pro 3 for daily 6-milers has passed 453 miles; it still feels strong apart from the outsole ripping off at one heel.

Had only a minor tongue issue with the Adios Pro 3; otherwise sublime, durable and stable, and 10-20 seconds per km faster for them than other shoes.

The Adios Pro 3 is their favourite shoe; on their fourth pair and took each over 300 miles, the most consistent and durable super shoe they've tried.

Just hit 400 miles on one pair of the Adios Pro 3 and it still bounces, with barely any outsole wear; uses it daily and stocks up on sales.

Cut the upper on both AP3 pairs and has raced two marathons plus 400 training miles in them; they feel better than ever.

Retired one AP3 pair at 350 miles and has another at 170; nearly returned the first until they adjusted the laces.

Had early upper issues with the Adios Pro 3 but fixed them by cutting the heel tag and not overtightening the toe-box laces; now has over 450 km on it.

A 215 lb heel striker has 250 miles on each of two AP3 pairs with barely any wear.

At 320 miles a 2:40-hopeful marathoner finds the AP3's upper poor and the fit large, but it's the only super shoe that doesn't hurt their collapsed arch, and the midsole and thin outsole show almost no wear.

Their first AP3 pair is still soft and smooth at about 300 miles, used for fast days at 50-60 miles a week.

On their fourth pair of the Adios Pro 3; this pair failed in under 100 km, though previous pairs usually lasted 400-500 km as mostly race-day shoes.

100 miles logged, mostly workouts and long runs, with the midsole still soft and bouncy, the grip strong and the upper very tough. Early on the upper rubbed around the big toe, which faded as it stretched or their foot adapted. They found the platform wide and cruiser-like, lacking a top gear for racing, so they use it for workouts and long runs rather than race day.

About 200 miles over five months, mostly Sunday long runs including some up to 36 km. They praise the protective, responsive cushioning that works from easy to marathon pace, plus stable landing, strong grip and very little outsole wear. They found it clunky for speed work, the upper minimal with a thin tongue, and the shoe bulky. Suits marathon training and racing.
