Adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung Black Grey Green

Adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung Black Grey Green: the super shoe that sees in the dark

The Adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung Black Grey Green is the most radical super shoe in the adidas catalog — the one that pushes the "more foam, more carbon, less weight" philosophy to its absolute extreme. Core Black dominates the Strung upper with a dark density that absorbs light, while Strung technology — polyester threads stretched over a minimal chassis — allows the black to show through its different layers depending on the angle. Grey appears on the midfoot reinforcements and heel details with the precision of a material that structures without saturating. And Solar Green emerges on the visible EnergyRods through the sole and the Three Stripes accents with an electric green acidity that cuts through the whole like a starting signal.

Lightstrike Pro + EnergyRods X carbon: the ultimate super shoe's triple architecture

The Prime X3 Strung stacks two layers of Lightstrike Pro — adidas' lightest and most responsive foam — for an 80.4% energy return measured in the lab. The carbon fiber EnergyRods X run through the sole, forming an X-architecture that converts every push into maximum forward propulsion. The Strung upper — 100% stretched polyester without a support fabric — contributes to a total weight of 160g in size 42, among the lightest in the world in this segment. The Continental rubber under the forefoot and the pronounced rocker complete a construction designed for records.

For whom?

The adidas Adizero Prime X3 Strung "Black/Grey/Solar Green" is for the ultra-marathoner who wants adidas' most technologically extreme super shoe in the darkest and most technical colorway in the range — one that lets the Solar Green of the EnergyRods speak for itself against a black background. It will suit runners who want to push technology to its maximum in a pair that refuses any compromise between weight, rebound, and propulsion.
