After a huge focus on their road racing line with the women's world record in Berlin and 521 pairs of $500 shoes, what do they have for our daily tastes?
Adidas – Breaking records and bank balances
Locked in a perpetual duel with Nike on the roads and track, Adidas had some sweet victories in 2024. Berlin saw the women’s marathon world record smashed by Tigst Assefa in the hugely hyped and ultra exclusive Adios Pro Evo v1. They certainly won the media war even if they lost the men’s race to the Alphafly 3 and Eliuf Kipchoge. Whilst their race shoes have always been top of the pile, their daily shoes have left some people wanting.
