Expert Review Sources

  • The Running Collective : 99.1 / 100 — « Across our race & marathon testing on road, the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2 impresses in real-world road testing with its secure midfoot lockdown and consistent cushioning. A smart choice for runners looking for a 7.8 mm drop and consistent performance all season long. »
  • Runnea : 91.0 / 100 — « In Adidas's race & marathon lineup, the Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2 strikes a convincing balance between impact protection and lively turnover (139 g, a 7.8 mm drop). A smart choice for runners looking for a 7.8 mm drop and consistent performance all season long. »
  • RunRepeat : 84.6 / 100 — « The adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2 stands out as one of the most striking super shoes we’ve tested, blending a shockingly low weight with an aggressive new rocker and innovative midsole and outsole features. It fully earns its place in the new hypershoe category—but the massive price tag, low durability and ultra-snug toebox are hard to ignore. For us, it delivers amazing speed for elites, but it is simply too extreme and too fragile for most runners. »
