Adidas is one of the leading suppliers of athletic equipment and apparel in the world. With offices in Europe, the United States, Canada, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East, you’ll be able to find the Adidas products you want no matter where you are. Adidas sells shirts, shorts, sports bags, hats, and sports towels, but the company is perhaps best known for its running shoes. Here are some brief descriptions of the shoes Adidas offers and what they’re used for:
Trail shoes
These shoes are for running on terrain other than the track or the gym. People usually purchase these shoes when they plan on doing any type of outdoor sport, such as mountain biking, hiking, or running in the woods or hills. Trail shoes have sturdy bottoms and are equipped with great arch and ankle support so you can move freely on surfaces that are not flat and still keep your balance. These shoes come in both men’s and women’s styles, and can be sold with gray, blue, red, yellow and silver accents.
Standard Adidas running shoes
There are almost 30 varieties of running shoes for both men and women from Adidas. Each shoe has special features, and most of the shoes are available in more than one color. A couple of examples of standard Adidas running shoes for men are: the Supernova cushion, which has cushioning inside the shoe for high-mileage running ($85.00, available in 3 colors); the ClimaCool Dialect with running cushion and all around ventilation ($75.00, available in two colors); the Response Trail 9, a trail running shoe equipped with aggressive traction ($60.00, available in 6 colors);and the Response Comp, a lightweight shoe ideal for running races ($75.00, available in 1 color). A couple of selections of women’s running shoes are: the Cosmo Lifestyle shoe, a lightweight tennis shoe used for jogging or ‘power-walking’. These shoes have durable rubber soles for foot support and comfort ($65.00, available in 1 color); the a3 Ride, with 360-degree reflexivity and excellent mid-foot support ($68.00, available in 1 color). The Response Trail 9 is also available in women’s sizes, and you can choose from seven colors.
In addition to Adidas running shoes that are used strictly for running track or walking, the company also has training shoes that give your feet extra support and comfort when you are training for a specific sporting event, or even for certain dance competitions. A number of the training shoes are very advanced running shoes, as a lot of athletes use these to train for marathons and triathlons. These shoes come in varieties such as the Prajna Lo, the Pasara, and the Sahar. All of these Adidas running shoes are lightweight, flexible, and able to move with the foot. They also provide stability for the ankles and the arch of the foot.
There are also a number of hats, sports bags, and T-shirts from Adidas that you can purchase to match your running shoes, so you can be coordinated while you work out. If you want to buy Adidas equipment, you can find it at any of your local athletic shoe stores such as Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker, Finish Line, or Champs Sports Equipment. Or, you can shop at your own pace at adidas.com (online shopping is only available in the United States) Good Luck!
