  • It only takes one glance at the Adidas 4DFWD to know that this is not your typical running shoe, with the 3D-printed midsole stand standing out straight away. Even within Adidas’s 4D range the 4DFWD offers something new, with a bowtie-shaped lattice structure that designed to propel you forward with each stride.
    Run Testers Nick has been running in the Adidas 4DFWD ahead of its launch, and in this video he looks at whether the shoe stands up as a solid easy day option in what is a very competitive section of the running shoe market.

    They could've added some rubber barrier on the side area to prevent the dust, small rocks twigs and some other unnecessary things to get inside that tiny holes that could affect the performance of the shoe. Maybe a little bit of ventilation to keep the air going in and out every time it landed on ground.

      It’s pretty vague on there! Very broadly, of a shoe has Adizero in the name it’s a racier number (Boston, Adios), while the Boost shoes are more everyday trainers (Solarboost, Ultraboost).

I'm in special need for supportive shoes that not only give strength in the foot area, but also keep the knees stable, as I deal with arthritis and loose tendons/luxation. The look of the shoe is secondary, if I find a good supportive pair that also gives a mix of cushioning and boost.

    It's Not Just 3D-Print as Time as Factor is also incl. . It's real 4D-technology and Not Just consits of 3D-printing only.
    4D is and will be Always perfection with the down Side of Not being a shoe for Muddy Terrain and Not for Sandy beaches.
    Combining e.g. Litestrike-Frame with BOOST-inserts Copy the 4D-network, are shoes also for Muddy Terrain and have No issues with Sandy beaches. But are Not as perfect as 4D.
    Who can do it better, today? There is No other Brand doing is with more perfection, right now.

    Unless you are getting a full scholarship to a top University for running, or are a professional runner, I don't really get the obsession with running shoes, in particular weight of the shoe. I purchased very good running shoes almost 40 years ago, including Adidas model Peachtree (they looked similar to these) and were as light weight as I would want them to be.

    Why takes it so Long Time for adidas and Puma to Develop e.g. Plated shoes...even first plated shoe came from adidas more than a decade ago?
    If a Runner switch between different Prototypes of a bigger series too often the quality of information is getting from very good to worse the more often the shoes/Prototypen are switched.
    If you do daily Training/Testruns and Switch between Prototypes each day you more or less sacrifice your feet, knees, hips and backbone as the feet can Not adapt to the "new" shoes.
    You can Switch between two Pairs day by day in Case of shoes you already Adapted but Not a whole series of Prototypes.
    4D-technology is different.
    Many runners are measured and 4D should Provide all high level of Support and Protection.
    Finally e.g. Litestrike-Framed BOOST-inserts appear as the results of Progress based on the experiences with 4D.
    The adidas adizero Pro has a Litestrike-Framed BOOST-insert.
    What comes next based on 4DFWD?

      For sure the new Type of propulsion the 4DFWD offer is better than by Propulsion-Plates.
      peba/Pebax is never Firm enough too be healthy for the Runner.
      ZOOM- Air-Pockets is 180° working against the 4DFWD-effect. 4DFWD is preventing lifting the risk of uneccessary injuries of a athlete during training on high level of propulsion.
      With a 4DFWD you can train inkl. high level of propulsion excl. the negative sideffects of the combination of carbon-plated deeply inserted into the midsole and overcushioning.
      adidas with Plates are Top-Board-Plates only and the Energy Rods do their Job near to the 4DFWD as the Metarsals can Push the Energy Rods inkl. motions as offered by the 4DFWD for loading and Energy Return. At straights Like at cornering.
      A deeply inserted Plate reduces the Push and loading even eliminates this effect. Same with those Zoom-Air-Pockets.
      All adidas shoes Like adizero Pro, adios Pro and 4DFWD are the new way of running. Run without Lifting the risk of uneccessary injuries.

    Just lean Forward at running and you will understand the 4DFWD.
    Soccer Players do lean Forward at running more or less without awareness. I do Not Talk about the fast following Defensive Player. I Talk about the reaction when swithing from studded shoes for Grass playgound to running shoes with drop Like Here at the 4DFWD.
    Most runners criticsing 4DFWD, react with lordosis-positiion on shoes with drop.
    The 4DFWD will bringt you in the trained Soccer Player Position at shoes with drop. What Happens If a Zoom-Air Pockets is braking a FWD-motion....Impuls for being Pushes into the lordosis-positiion. E.g. Hips issues come Up ... uneccessary injuries. Even Promoted by Propulsion-Plates deepky inserted into the midsole which is too soft/overcushioned.
    Even you are Not running in lordosis-positiion the Push by Zoom-Air, even midsoles without Zoom-Air-Pockets is towards lordosis-positiion.
    4DFWD is eliminating this Push. Metarsals Push the 4D-misole FWD the 4DFWD-network gets loaded and reutns Energy for propulsion. No spring-plate-effect is used for propulsion and finally uphill you don't need to Work against a plate. The Energy Rods are even tilting and tipping uphill. The adizero Pro offers some remaining Rocker-Effect uphill.
    4DFWD is the basement for a 100% solution. Next High Performance running shoe of adidas will have it roots in the 4DFWD, I guess.
