Expert Review Sources
- The Running Collective : 99.3 / 100 — « Super mais taille petite prenez plus grand »
- RunMag : 93.0 / 100 — « Pairing Adidas's Lightstrike 2.0 platform with a 7 mm drop, the Adizero Prime SP 3 STRUNG strikes a convincing balance between impact protection and lively turnover (193 g, a 7 mm drop). Its balance of shock absorption and responsive rebound meets every expectation for track & cross-country training. »
- RunRepeat : 92.6 / 100 — « The adidas Adizero Prime SP 3 STRUNG is one of the most extreme, speed-hungry spikes we’ve ever tested. We found in the lab that its massive forefoot area, ultra-stiff build, and aggressive geometry create a truly explosive ride for skilled sprinters. We were impressed by how fast and propulsive it feels, but we also think that it punishes sloppy form more than most rivals. It also feels slightly heavy and lacks airflow, something we think should be improved in future versions. »
- Believe in the Run : 89.8 / 100 — « Calibrated with a 7 mm drop and weighing 193 g, the Adidas Adizero Prime SP 3 STRUNG delivers an engaging, lively ride powered by its Lightstrike 2.0 bounce (193 g). Its balance of shock absorption and responsive rebound meets every expectation for track & cross-country training. »
