Adidas Adipure takes on Vibrams

Didn't manage to run today cause I woke up with busted ankles, but was then browsing around Gizmodo when I spotted this!!!
Seems like Adidas just announced their Adipure Barefoot running series. It's so new that if you google for images, you still can't find them online! An article or two are up only about 4 hours ago so this is really new stuff.

I'm digging all the colors...SO COOL!!!!!! Out only in November.

There's no velcra strap though...makes me wonder how long the snug fit will last until the fabric becomes too loose.

Colour way sure win. The design seems strange though, polka dots on the toes and the stripes around the feet doesn't feel adidas.

I think the Vibram's komodo sports design can pass off easier as an adidas shoe.

@Colin lol yeah I think it looks rather un-adidas like from the top view but I think from the side can tell it's from them. I have the feeling the three stripes are elastic straps that secure your feet...not sure how it'll hold up. Colors look good though! Digging the black and silver!

@Al lol I wonder how much they will cost!

Colin Wan said...

yah, side view looks adi.

I think Al said the last time he can get 40% discount.

please don't advertise my lobangs on the internet! later all sources kena cut off =P

read that it's meant for training in gym, not sure if it's good for running.

let's see if i've done enough until mid oct to deserve a reward.

Yeah it wrote that its good for training.

For those "meant for training" "meant for running" "meant for" etc kinda shoes, besides weight, I think they determine it base on the shape of their cushioning. With almost no cushion on BF style shoes, I think running no problemo =)
