The most impressive feature for me was the sole \u2013 the Lightstrike Pro is very springy and dynamic, and the Lighttraxion tread with Continental rubber provides excellent grip even on wet asphalt. This gives a lot of confidence with each step and comfort throughout the distance.<\/p>\n

Fit and Comfort<\/strong><\/p>\n The shoes are lightweight and hold the foot well thanks to Lightlock technology and the new lacing system. However, during the marathon, I felt there wasn\u2019t quite enough room for my big toe on the left foot \u2013 especially noticeable after a longer run, where my toe ended up a bit bruised. This is probably due to the narrower forefoot design or the way the shoe was laced, which is confirmed by other users\u2019 opinions \u2013 the Adios Pro 4 has a standard or even narrow forefoot, so people with wider feet should consider this before buying. For me, sizing up is not an option, as the heel would then be too loose.<\/p>\n Summary and Plans<\/strong><\/p>\n After one marathon, I see that these shoes have huge potential, but I need more time to fully evaluate them. I plan to test them on a shorter distance to better compare comfort and dynamics at higher speeds. I already know this is a very fast model, ideal for racing, but it\u2019s important to choose the right size and check the fit around the toes.<\/p>\n To sum up:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2022 Excellent grip on wet asphalt More tests coming soon!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 4 \u2013 My First Impressions After the London Marathon: Great Traction, Dynamic Sole, but a Narrower Front and a Bruised Big Toe.

\n\u2022 Very dynamic, springy sole
\n\u2022 Narrower forefoot \u2013 in my case, this resulted in a slightly bruised big toe on the left foot
\n\u2022 I need more training and races at different distances to fully evaluate this model<\/p>\n
