I'm glad Adidas realizes you do a great job reviewing running gear and shoes and you always say nice, honest things about Adidas products. So cool that they flew you to Germany.
Having followed you since the early days, Kofuzi, it’s so cool to see literally where this channel’s taken you. With every new adventure, it feels like we’re along for the ride and that’s appreciated. Well done, once again!
OMG you are so blessed being involved and invited to such a great place, I am speechless. Happy for you. Finally you are being recognized for all your hard work in the running community.
Wow what an incredible video! Best video I have seen you do. Adidas was very smart to invite you as they got a lot of good PR out of it. Must be so cool to get an invitation like that based on what you are doing on social media. Congratulations!
Nice to see you running part of my everyday-track alongside the Pegnitz, hope you liked it! And you even met Heiko from the development team at Adidas (a friend of our family…). Sometimes the world is really a „small place“. Greetings from Nuremberg - keep on running!
Looks like an awesome experience. There's a reason Puma is located across from Adidas. Both brands were created by the Dassler brothers after a falling out between them. One brother (Rudolf) created Puma. The other (Adolf) created Adidas.
I wish Adolf wouldn't have had such a horrible falling out for naming conventions sake. (I like the name not the dictator). Naming your kid after the WWII leader is a one way stop to being put on a watch list by the teachers and social workers for a welfare check and seeing whether or not your a white supremacist.
Kofuzi, you just know how to deliver such an epic experience. What an adventure and privilege to hold some of the best athlete's shoes. Really looking forward to your discussion about those new products. 😬
Oh man. So jealous right now. Adidas are my favorite brand of running shoes. I concur with what everyone else is saying. Superb videography man. Beautiful video
I've been trying to get into Berlin for years. I think my best bet is to go for the speedy runners option in a few more years. I'll just need to lower my marathon PR by about 4 minutes when I hit the 45+ age group
Maybe it's a European thing but I've always had a fondness for adidas and they gave me a few shoes to test for R&D back in the day. Some researcher there had studied at the same university I ran for in Ireland and sent a batch over. That looks like such a cool place.
Gorgeous city, your running through beautiful landscapes was what first got me hooked to your channel (your Chicago runs in winter are still my favorite and what caused me to fall in love with that city). If you ever get tired reviewing shoes, you'd have a whole new group of subscribers who would sign up for a running/traveling vlog. Great job!
You created another amazing runner's weekend vid. loved experiencing beautiful Germany and the stunning Adidas HQ through your artistic eyes and descriptive narrative!
Always love the runners weekend videos you do, and of course all the videos. Thanks for taking me (and all other viewers) along on this journey. Keep bringing us great content.
I started C25K the beginning of the year. I'm almost up to 30 min of running without walking. Your channel is a nice topic to watch after a run while eating pizza and protein shake.
Wow, just Wow!!! I can only imagine the feeling of seeing all that stuff in the archive. Looks like an incredible trip!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
What a great video, happy for you, that you could make this experience! This video was like a walk through memory lane for me and made me really miss working for Adi in Herzo !!
I always look forward to your videos! I appreciate the technical knowledge you provide and your passion for the sport (which radiates in every video). Thank you!
It's really cool that you got to visit the Adidas HQ. Their Energy Boost and Ultraboost (except 22) have been my go to running shoes for years. I hope I like the new lightweight Ultraboost that just came out.
it looks like there is more foam in the forefoot than in some prior versions, and with the lighter weight, it does look like an interesting possibility
What an amazing experience for you! You must be over the moon! Adidas was the first running shoe I ran in back when I did cross-country. Awesome video, I can't wait to hear more!
Excited on what you have said on the last part. Adidas is currently a bit underwhelming in their daily trainer technology and it seems they're cooking up something new. Adidas, if they set their full effort on something, they might come up with another game changer. Fingers-crossed the daily trainers are in it.
Super nice to see my old running track along the Pegnitz being showcased in such a cinematic way :) Nürnberg is a nice city, was a blast to live there, although traffic sucks^^
Amazing, Michael! Finally you've made it to Germany, it makes me wish I could've run with you in Nürnberg. Great Video, too, you've become such a pro at filming and editing. Well, do come back soon. Thanks for the video and kindest regards from the Bavarian capital, München (Munich).
@@kofuzi Don't listen to people who abuse you as a coffee substitute! You can really do without this audience... You were sovereign like you could hardly do better! The breaks were set correctly and the tempo matched the content. If that also corresponds to your natural way of articulating yourself, then stick with it and don't let yourself be bent!
Supercool video of a supercool place! adidas is my brand, not for running, but for all other sports.. but might be trying one of the maxcushion road training shoes from Adidas out of curiosity!
That forest you were running in was on my route to work at adidas HQ. I generally ran or biked to work every day from my home that was roughly 10K from the HQ
Based on the Innovation Lab, could you maybe go more in depth on Treadmills? Best shoes, differences on running outdoors, clothing/socks even? Great vid, Adidas made it a great day for you, but also for us, the viewers. Eyecandy.
Your video making skills have gone through the roof over the last couple of years. Top Notch
thank you🙏
Agreed. Loved it. We lived in Europe for 3 years and I loved seeing this. Thanks for taking us along.
My hero has gone global! Love this that you in Europe 👊
Loved it! Thank you, Kofuzi!

Easily one of your best videos, you were really able to transfer the vibe onto screen! Amazing footage from an amazing place 🙂 Thx for sharing!!
This one felt like a milestone video.
OMG you are so blessed being involved and invited to such a great place, I am speechless. Happy for you. Finally you are being recognized for all your hard work in the running community.
I was speechless too. the archive was unbelievable
I hope you get invited to every other shoe HQ after this! Super interesting to get a behind-the-scenes look like this.
that would be fun

good people know good people. and runners are good people
Nothing more interesting than runners weekend with kofuzi, I'm coming to watch this after supper ❤️
hope you enjoy!
@@kofuzi sure, absolute masterpiece ❤️
What a cool city and Adidas campus. The stonework and shoe video wall - each notable in their own way. Great trip!
my mind is still overstimulated

That's awesome. Germany has more castles than any other place in the world. There's so much history and places to visit. Good luck to you.
Kofuzi, you just know how to deliver such an epic experience.
What an adventure and privilege to hold some of the best athlete's shoes.
Really looking forward to your discussion about those new products. 😬
I'm not sure why, but the Edwin Moses spike really struck a chord with me
Oh man. So jealous right now. Adidas are my favorite brand of running shoes.
I concur with what everyone else is saying. Superb videography man. Beautiful video
Hope to see you again back here in Germany for one of our marathons: Berlin is a must! - Munich is wonderful too !!!
I've been trying to get into Berlin for years. I think my best bet is to go for the speedy runners option in a few more years. I'll just need to lower my marathon PR by about 4 minutes when I hit the 45+ age group
Beautiful archive segment!
it was my favorite part of the trip
As always, that was so much fun. Loved the shots of the Adidas building and the walls of the city. Magnificent!
really quite impressive
Man that looked like so much fun! Loved the history and seeing all the "retro" gear.
Maybe it's a European thing but I've always had a fondness for adidas and they gave me a few shoes to test for R&D back in the day. Some researcher there had studied at the same university I ran for in Ireland and sent a batch over. That looks like such a cool place.
it really is. I can't imagine working here
Really cool to see the history and archive stuff.
You have to go back. Not to Nuremberg but maybe for Berlin Marathon 2023! 🤞
Gorgeous city, your running through beautiful landscapes was what first got me hooked to your channel (your Chicago runs in winter are still my favorite and what caused me to fall in love with that city).

I do love making the run travel vlogs
You created another amazing runner's weekend vid. loved experiencing beautiful Germany and the stunning Adidas HQ through your artistic eyes and descriptive narrative!
thanks Leona!
Almost got a little teary during the trip through the archive. So many personal memories tied up in a lot of those artifacts!
Yes! Was same for me. From Jessie Owens on, felt profound.
I live an hour away from adidas HQ but I've never been there.. what an amazing place! 😃 Hope you enjoyed Germany! Great video 👍
What a privilege being able to explore the facilities and getting to know the history of the brand better. Thanks for sharing the journey
Fantastic documentary filmmaking-editing, narration, music all on point. Wonderful storytelling, easy to watch, nice flow.
You are living out my dreams! These are always my favorite type of content from you.
thank you!
I’m so happy for you I’m so inspired
Also a little bit envious. Adidas HQ looks so amazing.
The shoe reviews and LS are fun and informative, but Runner's Weekends continue to be the star of the show. Awesome video Ko!
thank you so much!
Always love the runners weekend videos you do, and of course all the videos. Thanks for taking me (and all other viewers) along on this journey. Keep bringing us great content.
thanks for coming along with me
Love watching these videos for treadmill work outs :-) thanks for the content , hoping for some great stuff from adidas love their pro foam models .
How cool is this experience!!! Thanks for sharing!
My favorite part of the video is at 19:00. Great video.
I started C25K the beginning of the year. I'm almost up to 30 min of running without walking. Your channel is a nice topic to watch after a run while eating pizza and protein shake.
Congrats to you for a great start. This is the place to come if you love running!
that's great progress! keep going!
Well done Sir - what a great video. Loved it. Very much looking forward to learning about all the super-secret gear you weren't able to show us.
thanks for watching!
Wow, just Wow!!! I can only imagine the feeling of seeing all that stuff in the archive. Looks like an incredible trip!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
I was speechless
What a great video, happy for you, that you could make this experience!
This video was like a walk through memory lane for me and made me really miss working for Adi in Herzo !!
Incredible. Entire video is jaw dropping!
What an amazing film! Thanks for sharing your journey!

Love Nuremberg and Herzo. Another great presentation! I've been to adidas HQ many times but never into the vault. Thanks for sharing.
the archive was quite a space
@@kofuzi 👉👊👈
holy moly. great to see you moving up in the world. I remember when you barely had 4 digits of subs

Love these Runners Weekend, keep them coming, Michael, let's gooo ///
thank you!
Awesome video @kofuzi. Love it. The best running related RUclips channel around.legend. Thank You!
thanks for watching!

Adidas, if they set their full effort on something, they might come up with another game changer. Fingers-crossed the daily trainers are in it.
They could also use a real recovery shoe option...
I've said it before and I'll say it again - love the Runner's Weekend videos! This one was really cool. Thanks for sharing :)
Big fan of their running jacket. Very interesting to see adidas HQ in Germany.
A truly Epic Vlog Mr Kofuzi. History has unfolded in your life, one that you can share with your children
I'm very lucky
@@kofuzi Indeed, great job
such a cool runners weekend edition from you! my favorite yet!
thanks so much!
Mike this was amazing. I wish we could know more about the things they are doing and how they are doing it. Glad you shared this with us.
thanks for watching!
Super nice to see my old running track along the Pegnitz being showcased in such a cinematic way :)
Nürnberg is a nice city, was a blast to live there, although traffic sucks^^
it was such a serene place to run
Amazing, Michael! Finally you've made it to Germany, it makes me wish I could've run with you in Nürnberg. Great Video, too, you've become such a pro at filming and editing. Well, do come back soon. Thanks for the video and kindest regards from the Bavarian capital, München (Munich).
hoping I can do a proper group run next time I'm in Germany
Thanks for the super interesting presentation! Very entertaining and pleasant to listen to 👌
people tell me my voice is very calming and that they fall asleep when they hear me talk

Yeah, Nuremberg and Herzogenaurach...welcome to my homecountry! It's kind of an honor for us you've been there, mate...Very nicely made video! 👍
the honor was all mine
Very cool experience. Thanks for sharing, Mike!
thanks for watching!
good video
Great content again. We have full faith in you providing feedback to Adidas on their lack of daily shoe offerings!
The run filming was cool as. Good work
thanks!
Guten tag. Awesome content Ko. You are spoiling us
Germany is my absolute favorite country❤️
Another great video Kofuzi! andddd now I’m also craving German pretzel at 6am
I love a good pretzel
Fantastic video. thank you for sharing it. i hope you enjoyed your time in Europe
it was a lovely experience. I hope to return soon
Germany looks awesome.
Man o man .. that a lot of Adi das stuff sold to build all that coolness… wow ! Great vid !
Ayyy...you went to my city haha..i grew up in Nuremberg 😊 hope you toured the cities..bavaria is absolutely beautiful
the archive is so amazing to visit 👍👍👍
I had no idea what was inside
WOW, Congrats Mike.
I been traveling to Nuremberg for over 15 years... you damn lucky what you were able to see in just 48 hours🤩
feeling quite grateful
Professor Ko! I enjoyed the history lesson. ❤Patrick Ewing & Run DMC. What a great work trip. 😃
I never thought I'd see those Ewings again
Great footage as usual.
Nuremberg is an amazing city. It's pretty close to a couple Army bases. That definitely gives it a bit of a touristy feel at times.
I hope I can go back sometime soon
Supercool video of a supercool place! adidas is my brand, not for running, but for all other sports.. but might be trying one of the maxcushion road training shoes from Adidas out of curiosity!
That forest you were running in was on my route to work at adidas HQ. I generally ran or biked to work every day from my home that was roughly 10K from the HQ
that must be a very pleasant commute
Great video mate. Loving the Prime X strung and ts8.... Really hoping for a pro 4 strung 🤞
Excellent video!..thank you👊
thanks for watching!
Excellent!
As a “one coffee man” and not later than 11am your ability to down 3+ cups and still sleep is hilarious! 😂
my body was so confused with the late afternoon coffee and the time zone change
So cool! It's like you got to be a kid again!
definitely

Your best ever . Awesome.
Church of the run video, church of the run history, church of the new runtech mystery. ❤🕵🏻♀️Bravo, Mike!
thanks Laura!
Nice one 👍🏻... Watching through my breakfast
Wow! Great vid!
thanks!
Yo what’s going on!? This vid was insane, one of your best!
thanks!
Ko is the man!
Man's living his best life here. Kudos!
it was a great trip
@@kofuzi German pretzels are next level
Excellent video as always! Although every time you said the word soccer, I wonder if that makes the Adidas people go crazy 😂
I'm not sure what triggers Europeans more: me saying soccer, or me pronouncing Adidas
