Adidas Puts Its Marathon Record in a Shoe Anyone Can Buy

The Adios Pro 5 arrives with the EnergyRim technology first proven on the Pro Evo 3, the shoe behind Adidas's record-breaking marathon run, now built for a retail price and a mass audience rather than an elite start line. It is the kind of trickle-down engineering that changes a training log before it changes a red carpet, but the instinct is the same one Palm Beach and Aspen closets know well: what works at the top gets tailored for everyone else. For a house best known for chasing finish lines, putting that same rim under a shoe regular runners can actually own is its own kind of achievement.
