Adidas Adizero Evo Sl: First Thoughts
2024-12-02
INTRO TO ADIDAS ADIZERO EVO SL
Call it premium for the people, or the evolution of the Evo Pro. Call it whatever you want, but officially speaking, the name of the newest shoe in the Adidas Adizero stable is the Evo SL, a training companion to the ultra premium performance racer in the Evo Pro 1.
We first got a taste of the Evo excitement when Adidas sent shockwaves through the running shoe world last fall with the announcement of the first $500 marathon racing shoe. Equally shocking was the weight of the Evo Pro, coming in at an almost-impossible 4.8 ounces. Featuring an uncompressed Lightstrike Pro midsole and featherweight upper, the shoe tore up the marathon race season, setting both the women’s world record along the way on the feet of Tigist Assefa.
