- Today I got the newest Adidas Spikes which the Adidas sprinters will run in during the Olympics for 2024. I try them out on track and tell you how they feel compared to the popular Nike spikes.
can sp3 run400？
Yes but as it is a very stiff shoe it will not be very good if you dont run that fast. If you run sub50 then maybe they are an option. They renewed the 400shoe from adidas, the ”adidas finesse” so perhaps they are better.
Whats with the durability of the shoes?
@@Sub11king I cant yet answer how durable the sp3's are but for the other shoes: the maxfly's air bubble popped twice in very few training session. But i've read they have improved it since my last pair. The upper of maxfly never got any wear. The Superfly elites are mediocre and I always get a small hole in the stitching on the upper from my toe drag but never noticed any wear on the spike-plate. You can at least run in them for 2 full years/seasons.
I ran 7.40 for 60m with the prime sp3 But ran 7.30 with the finesse 2023 version. Strange. It was new by the way, maybe it takes time for them to wear in.i though I'd run 7.10 or 7.20 at least.
@@BacchusB-w5g well they are very stiff and if you have good contact times and fast leg movement then you should be able to run a faster time with the sp3s. But the shoes don't take of tenths of a second when running a 60m. Perhaps you can gain 0.05 from worse spikes.
man listen only one doubt I can't decide I previously had superfly then upgraded to maxfly uptempo now should I buy maxfly 2 or sp3 I'm a good starter and my ankles are stiff too if so which one will be better
Is there your review of the Maxfly 2 Electric?
did u feel like they were super tight around the sides of your foot?
@@pirate5547 they were quiet tight on the side of the toes on one of my feet. But I did go with the smaller size that I ordered that just about fitted so that could be a factor to how tight they are.
@@Lajnish i just got a pair and they were the same size as my maxflys that fit perfect and the sp3s were just way too tight
Are these spikes bouncier than the sp2?
I dont have the sp2s but ive heard the sp2s are bouncier and more like the maxflys
Which feels more responsive for you the maxfly or the sp3?
I believe both are equally responsive but in to different ways. The sp3 felt like I loaded the shoe and the push of the ground was natural. Unlike the maxfly. The maxfly made you feel very bouncy while running but ofcourse that energy feels like its going more vertically and not horizontally. If you need help in the ground then the maxfly might be better.
@@Lajnishhello I want to ask if I just play 100m ,max2 and sp3 which is good for me,my 0-60m is bested than 70-90🙏
@@枕頭-j4fit is hard to answer. I got very much of a response in the maxfly so if you feel you want to make you steps lighter thank go for maxfly but if you want more power and flow then go for sp3, but it doesnt matter that much. Shoes only make you hundreds of a second faster and they both are very good.
@@Lajnish ok thx you
Are the SP3 spike pins fixed or can they be replaced?
They can be replaced 👍
what is better maxfly or sp3
@@rolstondaley3463 for me sp3. For the majority of people is probably maxfly.
Does this shoe have a carbon plate?
@@AndrewWang-y2r yes, thats why it doesnt bend alot.
what races is this shoe mainly made for
@@jairusorense 100/200m
@@Lajnish how much of a size should i drop for this shoe?
@@jairusorense I have 42/42.5 and I got both 42 and 42 2/3 and I decided for the 42s.
So they are true to size and dont drop more than half a size👍
@@Lajnish so if im a size 42 for my daily shoe, should i drop to a 41 for spike size or 41.5?
@@jairusorenseI believe they will be in 42 or 41 1/3 so its tough. I myself would chose 42 but it really depends on how tight your ”regular” shoes are and how much room you have in them.
Is sp3 is batter then sp2
I haven’t had the sp2s so I dont know. They are probably very similar.
Should i get sp3 for 400 or the finesse?😊
I have never tried the finesse nor ran the 400m in the sp3s so very hard to answer. The finesse were improved since the last version so perhaps give the finesse a try since they are made for the 400m. 😅
I would definitely suggest the SP2/SP3 instead of the old Finesse.
For the new ones I can't give you an opinion. I would say the foam isore important than the plate for the 400. There probably is a reason why they are marketed for 400.
If you run 200 AND 400 I would suggest the SPs, if you have the strength for the carbon plate. Some runners just don't get along with the stiff plates, no matter the shoe or brand
@@joseppedaia3673 il try the finesse thanks!
@@joseppedaia3673 Yep. I never mentioned or recommended the old finesse. The finesse were renewed with the sp3s as the new models for this year so perhaps he should try them instead of sp3s.
@@Lajnish yeah definitely.
It's just that between old finesse and SP3 the better one should be clear. With the new one; maybe 50:50
Are they stiffer than the sp2 ?
@@worthyk1589im not 100% sure but they said it hasnt changed in the bottom of the shoe so I guess its the same and are as stiff as the sp2
Having raced both: they are indeed the same. The upper however adds a bit of non-flexibility (aka the SP2 upper is thinner). You feel the difference while walking, but not while sprinting
@@joseppedaia3673so the sp3 is a bit too stiff on the upper mesh?
@@jairusorense wouldn't go as far as saying TOO stiff. Just stiffer.
I personally like it. It takes a bit longer to confirm to the foot but after that it actually feels like a shoe.
I don't like not feeling the shoe/spike I wear. The SP2 has this ultra thin, see through, plastic mesh. There are only few ways to get less stiff.
All that said: compared to the sole/plate both uppers are non-existent regarding stiffness
are they true to size?
Yes i have 42/42.5 in other spikes so i got both 42 and 42 2/3 and i found 42 just big enough for good fit so just pick your size you have in other spikes👍
Adidas has a measurement chart including foot-length (not shoe size) online. That is very accurate
@@Lajnish Hi what is your real foot size in cm?
Nice one imma buy the 3s
Thank you! Dont compete in big meets before june 30th in them. After that they are approved.
